July 1

Hello family,

 

It was an excellent week here in the Burg. The experiences just keep coming even at the end of the mish. So with our most progressing investigator we haven't been able to set a baptismal date with her for the last few weeks, but this last Thursday we finally set one for the end of July which I thought was awesome as long as she finally got baptized. Then on Friday she called and asked if she could move it up because she finally received her answer that the Book of Mormon is true! So of course we said yes so in the next couple of weeks we should finally be having another baptism! This was another big week of finding for us and we were able to have some success. It is always interesting to pick up some former investigators to teach that you were here for when you had to drop them. It shows I've been here quite awhile now ha.  

 

So dad you asked what I want to do when I get home. Well preferably I would like only immediate family at the airport when I arrive home, then go straight to the stake president to get released, then everyone who wants can be waiting at home to meet me. I would love to go swimming for the first time in 2 years that night as well ha. You are right the humidity is crazy out here and I feel like its going to be cold back home with it being so dry ha.

 

The comp is doing well he is very willing to go out and work so no worries with that. All is well between us so no complaints.

 

On my last day here in Kentucky I'll go to the temple here one last time so I'm told. I'm excited to come home but I will miss it out here for sure, I know this experience will be unique in my life and I won't have another opportunity to do this again on my own.

Well I don't think I've shared my testimony with all of you enough since I've been out. So, here it goes. I know that this church is the true church upon the earth and that the Book of Mormon is true. I'm grateful for the Atonement and the strength that you can receive from it to help you through anything in your life. Family is very important and ordained of God. Love your family and learn from one another, it will make this life so much more joyful. I love each of you and hope you have a wonderful week!

 

Love,

Elder Moorhouse
