October 25

Hi Everyone,
Happy Birthday Mom, I found something to send you, I believe you really like this stuff, and I believe you can't get it from out there, so I am going to send it to you. Just so you know, I will be buying some new shoes probably today, my black really cheap ones are starting to go on me, they will still have use, but not for too much longer. That would be great if you send me the Trench coat, that's all I really need. I have some really nice gloves, so I don't need gloves either, but the shoe coverings would be nice as well. We have a baptism date for November 21st, for a guy whose name is Doug, he lives 20 minutes away, in Colbourne. He's and older fellow, and he loves to watch the christian channel with the people who go all over the world just to "proclaim the gospel". We told him that they don't hold the priesthood authority of God. His response was "oh I didn't know that".Rick the one who broke his hip, he will be released from the Hospital on the 28th, and hopefully real soon he will get his divorce certificate so he can get re-married. If it's Gods will we will baptise him on the 14 of November. I love you a lot, have a great week.

hello
My companion and I have really been talking to each other this transfer, and it has really made our companionship grow. An amazing thing happened this week, we tracted a members appartment building, and on the bottom floor, we found Nick. He his 19 years old and lives with his girlfriend. He pretty well believes in absolutely everything that we believe in, and he did most of the talking, it was really awesome, the only sad thing is that he bombed our appointment on Sunday. The members down here are really great, and elder jerowsky and I are being fed quite a bit. I still haven't gained any weight though. I am starting to feel a bit colder now, and my throat isn't quite as big as it was when I left. Also my eyes are doing really well. i love you all alot, thank you for your support, remember this advice the best way to strengthen your relationship with someone, is to simply sit down and talk with them frequently. it has really worked this transfer like you wouldn't believe.

Hello Everyone,
I loved general conference, my favourite talk was Pres. Uchtdorfs talk on pride, and being proud. i loved it. The work out in Cobourg is flourishing, the Lord is really blessing us, and I am priveleged to be a part of the work, and the miracles it brings. I hope you enjoyed thanksgiving, im sorry that i only was able to email you today, but today was are p-day, Ibecause we had Zone Conference yesterday.I am enjoying my new companion, we have had some great discussions that have really helped our bond grow. I know that this will be a great transfer, and that the Lord will bless us with miracles and blessings this transfer. I have some great pictures of the lake, and of the beautiful colours, I need 160 more pictures before I send it home to you guys. It shouldn't be too much longer. I want to send it home in a big package, but I don't know what to get you guys yet.I'm sure I will think of something. Cobourg is a really nice place, I have eaten at a members house pretty well since I arrived in cobourg, and yesterday we finally didn't have a dinner appointment, but we have enough turkey leftovers to last us a week! My story for you guys today has to do with a guy named Rick. He is waiting for the divorce papers to be sent out, so that he and his ex wife can sign it, they said it would take 6 weeks, then he could get re-married and be baptised. He has an astonishing testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately the week before I came in he tore all the ligaments in his hip, and to top it off this past Sunday he completely broke his hip. Satan is really working hard to stop him from being baptized into the Lords church. It will take him 6 months to recover before he can be baptized. but he is staying faithful. I love you guys a lot. Some of the things I am thankful forare; my new companion Elder Jerowsky, the faithfulness of the investigators out here, and the Lord for letting me be a part of this wonderful work.
