Hey, y'all!!! I flew the coop last week,
and I landed in Eaton Ohio, or rather New Lebannon, Brookville, West Alexandria,
West Manchster (a lot of Wests), And I don't know what other towns. There are a
lot of them in my area. The ward, which just became a branch a year ago, is right
above my first area, Oxford.
The ward is small, but expanding faster
than the building is. They were in line for a new building, but they were told that
the members in this area aren't paying their tithing faithfully enough to have a
new building, so they are busting at the seams. But it's ok. We are going to work
with the Bishop to help the members' faith increase enough to take care of things.
I am really excited. I think I am going to be here until I go home in January, and
so I think that I can help make a difference here. I am not going to be the deciding
factor in anything, but I can for sure help them.
We had a baptism yesterday. His name
is Dennis Click, and he wanted to be baptized for the remission of his sins. He's
a little eccentric, but he'll change as the Holy Ghost continues to work on him.
It was a really good baptism too. There weren't a lot of people there, but we got
the job done anyway.
My companion is Sis. Lewis, and she is
from South Jordan, UT. She and I get along really well. We both randomly burst out
into song frequently, and we make funny noises, and use funny accents all the time.
I am really excited for this transfer.
I'm sorry that my letter is so short,
but I have limited time now. I love you all. I know that God knows all, and that
He puts me where he wants me. I know that I am a beloved daughter of a generous
Heavenly Father.
In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen
