Hey Hey Fat Elder Ferre Here! I'm almost 200 pounds!!
The Last week of transfers flew by i'm staying in Winthrop and Elder Packer is as well. The Next transfer will be 6 Weeks from tomorrow. Everything is going great. Conference was amazing. I got more out of it then i ever have before. Elder Hollands talk in Preisthood was amazing! He talked about being worthy and how important it is. I thought to my self man if i would have heard that if I wasn't worthy i would have been terified but I had the peace knowing i am worthy so that was awesome! Elder Scotts talk i also liked he talked about memorizing scriptures which is something i have started doing i have got close to 20 memorized so far and can see it blessing me in my work elder packer has close to 100 and elder cash my disrict leader i think has close to 300 its crazy! A new temple in Provo What?! thats so awesome but crazy at the same time!
Augusta was awesome we taught a woman named Merideth she is awesome her big hold up is she doesn't want to be baptized by a hypocrite so she just needs to gain trust in the missionaries and in the men of the ward. We Were able to reach 20 lessons again which was awesome we were blessed to still teach that many lessons with conference taking a good chunk of saturday and sunday.
Kyle is really close to getting a baptismal date he said he needs to pray about it and think about it some more and that he would let us know what he thought. He said he had an answer during confrence tell him that we are a just and real church of God so that is a step closer for him to joining the one and only true church of Jesus Christ. It amazes me at his ability to recognize the spirit i feel as if he has been prepared by God for us to teach. Sarah who is a college student who we taught a couple of times moved out of the area for college we went to her moms house last night and she said that sarah wanted to be baptized into a church but wasn't sure what church to choose and she is going to be in town next sunday so we have a lesson planned with her sunday night it should be awesome. Jermey is out of town for 2 weeks because he is going to meet his real father that he has never knew it is crazy that he has gone 27 and hasn't ever met him. Nothing has happened with Susan so she is now a former investigator. Steve Francis watched most of conference and said he enjoyed it he also said that he would come to church and bring another one of our investigators who doesn't have a car which was a miracle we have been trying to find a ride for him the whole time i have been here and Steve said he would take him awesome! We had 5-6 investigators if not more watch conference which is awesome! The Elder Karl had over was either Elder Richards Or Shumway. Elder Shumway is short and stalky and Elder Richards is taller and skinny with blonde hair. That is so awesome that he saw them! (Our uncle lives in Pensilvania where a few of the missionaries in colton's district while he was in the MTC went on their missions. He had them over for dinner and realized that they were in the MTC with Colton. It was a pretty fun experience)
Love you all and you are always in my prayers! God Be with all of you!
