I just returned from a business trip to the UK. I was doing some work in Cambridge, UK and stayed in a hotel in Six Mile Bottom which is near Bury St. Edmund. I love the place names in the UK and enjoy reading the place names on the exit signs. One other thing I love about going through Heathrow given the extreme amount of diversity. The flights near mine were going to Beijing, Islamabad, Tehran, and Bangkok. You walk in the terminal and it feels like the UN. However, I was also overwhelmed when you realize how many people there are in the world – it always reminds me how small a piece of the world we as Mormons are. It also is a bit overwhelming to consider how many of these people have probably never heard of us or know very little about us. Boy, we have a lot of work to do… |

You know, what I bet we’d really be surprised about is how many people HAVE heard of us. I bet money that those who know something of us outside of the United States feel more positively than negatively. As opposed to inside of out country where there are still people who think we have horns and practice ritual sacrifice in the temple. What do you do that you get to travel all over like that? |

Dev, so did you offer anyone a free book from your church in their language? (and give them the number from a pass-along card?) |
