E-mail - June 6, 2007

"I am happy to stay in Bury with Sister Mortensen, she's great. She's a little bit of country and I'm a little bit of rock and roll so we talk to a great mix of people. I'm really sorry about last week, I had received a lot of Birthday greetings and I wasn't able to resist the temptation to read them during my precious time. I had a wonderful birthday. We have been teaching Brother Sleight for a while now. He's in his 70's and he was found by Sister Anyanwu and Sister Ratasvouri tracting (When Sister A left me in MK, she came to Bury and found Brother Sleight).

I was looking at my clothes yester morning and thinking "wow, I can't believe this is all my clothes, this is all I have worn for almost a year!" It is a good thing that I don't dwell on it. There are too many other important things to think about. Like Shelly and Tina. Sister Anderson and I knocked on Shelly's door mid-March and she is progressing so well. She came to the Historic Stake Conference this weekend and loves President Hinckley. She has some Word of Wisdom issues but she can't wait to be baptized. She is so prepared. Tina is her best neighbor friend that drops by when she knows we are in. We have some wonderful discussions. Another fairly new investigator's name is James. He also strengthens my faith that the field is white. James is 18 and feels the spirit so readily. It's almost funny. We have been teaching him at his Nan's house (that's Grandma) She investigated the Church years ago. It's wonderful to be teaching families. Shelly has 2 boys - 6 and 8 -- and I'll try to get pictures next time. Love, Sister Cannon"
