"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

Hey Family,

Wow that was some really exciting news. Congrats to Alexia and Jake that so cool to hear. Well it’s good to hear that I will be home for things now ha-ha. 

So Jesse is going down south that is really cool. I just took a look at the area on the map... Looks like he will have some good stories when he gets home. It doesn't look like he will be gaining as much weight as I did on the mission. In fact, he is probably going to be walking all the time. So that is a bit of a surprise it seems like a lot of the call have been in the states but looks like Jesse needs to find some people down south. Jesse will get the language down quick just rely on the lord for help. Start studying now too. 


So Jeff's baptism is this weekend and it should be really good. Still just setting up all the little stuff for it but I am really excited. Elder Kay is coming back to do the baptism and then confirmation is the next day. He is really excited for it and it should be great. I definitely am going to stay in contact with this family. They are some of my favorite people that I have taught on my mission. Really other then Jeff's baptism we don't have much going on but everything is going great. 

It’s starting to get humid so I’m not to excited but oh well. Jesse there really isn’t anyway to prepare for humidity but prepare. Ha-ha it will be hard to breathe the first few days your in it. Love you all!

Love,
Elder Ryan Furtney
