Transfer 11: week 4:Cover zone--Beehive house

Hello family!

Life is pretty much amazing, despite the frigid weather... maybe it was just a hot summer and I got used to it or maybe my companion's warm bloodied-ness is making things hard... who knows? Anyways, Utah is cold, but I am glad that God has me spending another fall in the Beehive house. Even if it means that I do not get to take as many people as I would like to the conference center. (which is my personal favorite place to teach people, always has been, actually) But we took an amazing man from Oregon there the other day and he was so sweet, I wanted to adopt him as my grandfather. But, he already has granddaughters. Oh well, I'll just share with him more about the restored gospel... that'll be good enough, right?

Also our investigators from Africa are eagerly awaiting the coming of the missionaries. They don't have the feast picked out, but they are trying to figure out how in heaven's name to get to church when it is so far away. I never thought of how much of a blessing it is to have a church so nearby (even when we had to drive almost 35 min to get there) and these people typically travel by bus, which makes the drive even longer than it would be normally. But one especially is amazing. He met a group of members who came out to help build orphanages and he saw something different in them and wanted to gain a testimony for himself of the truth.

Also we're excited to see what Halloween excitement will happen this year, I didn't realize that Halloween was so close! Next week. Oivey... and then Sister K Farmer and a whole bunch of other people will go home to their families for thanksgiving. Life is certainly crazy, and the crazy people come to the Beehive house. We've had some wonderful people, members of the church as well as guests who asked about the law of chastity in the middle of one of the children's rooms. We haven't been on Temple Square as much as I would like with my assignment, but life is still pretty good.

Have fun!
