"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

December 18, 2012


Hey Mom and Dad,

So I am so excited for Christmas this year; it’s going to be a great one. I got the package and the letter.   Thank you so much for everything! We are still figuring out all the Skype stuff but just be kinda ready at any time.  We will probably try to do it from the noonish to 3:00 pm area. Sorry, I know that’s a big timeframe but we were not able to go to church and figure it out this week because of some sickness; but we are both good now.  So I have been emailing Jordan since he got out and he seems really excited.  I’m way excited to know what place he is serving in.

Oh, so we have an interesting Christmas tree.  I’ll probably send a picture to you when we Skype.  I don’t have a ton of things to report on at the moment but I will have stuff to talk about on Christmas.

I’ll see you all on Christmas and, if I can, I’ll send an email of what time we will be calling. Love you all!
Love,
Elder Ryan Furtney
