"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

January 3, 2012

Hey Mom and Dad,
Happy New Year!! I am very excited for this new year and I can't wait to see what it brings. All we did for new years is had a meeting with our district and then we went to bed at 10:30 haha. They just don't want us out on the street with all the drunk people haha. As a mission we are reading the book of Mormon in 90 days. I had already read most of it so I will stick to the plan.  I was in the book of Helamen so it's good. So last night we finally got hit with snow. I don't know how long it will stay, it could be the rest of winter or it could be gone by tomorrow... oh well, it gives us things to do while we tract. Plus I like the snow more than the rain so it's good so far. Oh and last night I was wanting to go snowboarding so bad, but there are no mountains here and I can't haha. The weather has been really weird here too.  Last year they had about 53 inches of snow in December, but this year they have none. Eric's new car sounds nice.  Now he won't get stuck at the bottom of Fiddlers because his car can't move in the snow. haha.  Well we are still not teaching anyone at the moment but there are a few potentials and it will probably pick up now that the holidays are over. We have transfers on the 18th of January, and most likely I should leave but I really have no idea.  I could stay for all I know. Well, thank you for all of your support. I love you all and hope you have a great week.  I know I will haha in the snow...
Love,
Elder Ryan Furtney
