Hello Parents in the distant land of Utah,
Conference was so amazing and I was able to learn so much this time. I noticed there was a lot of urgency in their talks and a lot about acting and not just being idle in the church. Preisthood was amazing this year and I really hope it helps our work out here. A lot had to do with the rescue which is what we work with a lot. I know that there are people out here and we are trying our hardest to find them to give them our message and always keeping our spirits up. We were able to watch Conference in our branch building. I do miss going to Priesthood with Dad as well but I think he will be fine for two more sessions without me.
So we are trying to go to Kirtland this Friday since Elder Moffett is leaving. He actually is leaving a little earlier than expected so we are going on Easter weekend. They have a special thing there for the weekend about Christ so I'm pretty excited.
I was able to receive the box and the letter as well. Thank you so much. Oh, also, I did forget to tell that I did receive the package from the young women and, if you could, please tell them thank you for me. Elder Moffett did enjoy the package and we were both pretty excited about it. Elder Moffett is flying home first and going to school right away and then they are going to come back out sometime in the summer.
That's pretty cool that Uncle Grover is going to get Dillion. That would be pretty exciting. I can't believe he is already pretty much done. Everything goes by too fast out here. I bet he is probably dying haha probably doesn't want it to end -- just like every missionary out here haha.
Well I wish I could have seen Alyssa, Kent and the boys but I am sure they are enjoying the eastern side of Utah. Pretty dry over there that is for sure. I still want to go over there really bad and do some hiking and biking when i get back.
I am taking as many pictures as possible. I am driving a lot so it's pretty hard to take tons of pictures, but I will try. I have a lot that I need to send home. I'll make a cd this week and send it home. And don't worry I love this apartment; it is very nice ( nicest one in the mission) haha. I have been taking some pictures of the branch building or as I call it -- the doctors office haha. Bryan is pretty amazing and I love the warm weather haha except for the humidity. I will not move out of a dry area -- they are much better.
Well, it was a great week and it's great to hear from you. I love you so much and hope that you are all doing great. I am trying to write more letters to everyone out there (this includes inside and outside the family) but I haven't been home for the past three weeks on a P-day so I have no time. Please forgive me, and I will write as soon as I can. Love you all
Love,
Elder Ryan Furtney
