"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

February 25, 2013


Hello Family,
Things are going great here by the lake. Weather is warming up and once that happens time is just going to fly by although it already is doing that. We had a really good week and we have been teaching a man who has been so prepared. He told us that when he saw us walking up to his house he was just going to tell us to leave but then he had a feeling he really needed to talk to us. He was so open and is so great. We see him on Wednesday and I am really excited. It is always so great to see Heavenly Father prepare the hearts of His children. The elect are all over, we just need to open our mouths. Other than that I’m just excited to see the changes that are coming next week with our huge transfer coming in. It should be pretty exciting.
So Lake Erie freezes over pretty good but they don’t have a ton of shipping in the winter but I’m sure it picks up in the summer.
 I think that’s great for Jesse. Need to start preparing right now though. Oh and a lot of my stuff probably won’t be great unless he wants some ugly shirts haha. Summer makes my shirts look like crap haha. But most of my stuff he can use…like all the little stuff should be fine. But that is really exciting I can’t wait to hear where the little dude is going haha.
So Alyssa told me the same thing about the temple that would be so cool if it happened. Oh and Dad you can tell Uncle Grover that I’m not putting off BYU-I.  I just don’t know for sure what I want to go into.  If he has some info that he could send me for that, then I would like to look into it. Probably should send it in a few months though not right now… Still staying focused! :) Well thanks for the letter and I love you all!
Love,
Elder Ryan Furtney
