"Thou art called to labor in my vineyard, and to build up my church, and to bring forth Zion, that it may rejoice upon the hills and flourish. Behold, verily, verily, I say unto thee, thou art not called to go into the eastern countries, but thou art called to go to the Ohio. And inasmuch as my people shall assemble themselves at the Ohio, I have kept in store a blessing such as is not known among the children of men, and it shall be poured forth upon their heads. And from thence men shall go forth into all nations. Wherefore, go forth, crying with a loud voice saying: The kingdom of heavn is at hand: crying: Hosanna! Blessed be the name of the Most High God. Go forth baptizing with water, preparing the way before my face for the time of my coming." --Doctrine and Covenants 39: 13-15, 19-20

October 17

Hey Mom and Dad,
I am doing so good out here. We had a disappointing week because Skylar and Tyler didn't make it to church again but we have been teaching another family and they seem to finally want to except a baptismal date. Hopefully I will still be here if they accept it.  We have transfers coming up next week and mine and elder Trammell's chances of staying together are slim to none. Our week was pretty productive it was a week of a lot of service but we do have some new investigators that we are teaching. We don't know tons about them. We have just stopped by and said hi to them and set up some return appointments. Well that's pretty funny about your class, we see it a lot out here in Ohio how the world is more important than church and other things. I heard that Amy came over I got a few emails from Carmen and Lexi haha. They make me laugh.  They are so funny. Oh so i just put some pictures onto Facebook for people to see but I will send the rest back over there soon. Oh and don't worry I didn't have to sign on to Facebook so i didn't break any rules. haha. That's good your heard from Eric I am glad to hear that he is doing fin.  I hope his new mission won't be too bad but I will keep praying for him. That's so cool about Wesytn and Sheen.  I am glad to hear that they got their calls. I didn't know Sheen was planning on going.  That is so cool that he is.  I hope he is safe in Columbia. Oh and dad I have no idea what you were saying but thanks i guess. And I hope you know that when someone gives me a referral I am so excited. It's the best thing in the world when we get referrals because they will listen to us haha. I have loved my service so far and I love my family even more since I got out here. You are all great examples to me and I love you all.
Love,
Elder Ryan Furtney
