So much has happened this past week! So my three companions got transferred this last Friday, mid transfer splits happened. Elder Dame went out to Theodore, Alabama to be a Zone Leader, Elder Johnson went to tim buck too Alabama (can't remember where) to white wash, and Elder Vaughn ended up getting his VISA so he left for Brazil today! Elder Haderlie (Hadder-Lee) joined me here in Pensacola he has only been out for two weeks and he was being trained by another of Elder Dames kids. President Jensen really trusts him, as do I. It has been fun with him, great missionary! I loved conference! Saturday was powerful! Sunday was great too but Saturday I got alot more out of. The first few talks about becoming as a child were spectacular, very moving, the talk about LDS women was another of my favorites! Haha LDS women are the best! Lots of comments to the YSA about getting married! Ah I love President Monson, he is such a goof, at Priesthood he was cracking everyone up! That man truly is a prophet today. His counsel will draw us closer to Christ and put us on the right road. I can't remember who it was, maybe Eyring, but they said the gospel only adds to our faith, belief, love and testimony of the Savior. Alot of folks are afraid of learning. I met a guy last night who said he knew the history of the church, and I felt inspired to ask him, "Do you know the doctrine? The doctrine is what will change your life." That was a really neat experience for me. We are going to go see them sometime this week. An excommunicted member we went to see had this guy and his wife over and it worked out perfectly. We also had two people who showed up after the first session of conference yesterday and talk to bishop about welfare, they said they just happened to show up, the bishop is goin to help them but I don't know how interested they really are in the gospel. Our memers did so great at fellowshipping them! They were so loved. We'll be meeting with them again on Thursday, so much is going on here though. I feel a little overwhelmed, I am still just a greenie myself and running an area. I know the Lord's helping me do it. The lady Chuck we met at the flea market, her brother passed away last wednesday and we're going to dinner with her tomorrow night with the missionaries who live in her area. She called today and said that, I hope and pray that softened her heart to the gospel. She is so sweet! So ready to be baptized! haha I will get a picture with her and send it out. I thank each of you for your support, I love you, I am grateful to know you, I miss you, I will see you again. The church is true, this is the gospel of Jesus Christ again on the Earth. Jesus Christ lives and is the very Son of God. Worship Him, Follow Him, heed the words of His chosen prophets. They will not leed you astray. Pray always, study and read the scriptures. They are true. Let us each fill our lives with the light of gospel living, and the very Spirit of God. I pray the Lord will bless you all.
 
With Love,
