Progressing investigators

Well family,

This week was not full of teaching, but we got four great new investigators and one came to a conference session! Which was great. I've never been so excited to hear the prophet and general authorities speak until my mission...great weekend. Anyway, back to those investigators. The Evans family were taught last night...and already have come to church and have noticed the changes it has made in their lives. One of which is their marriage. As soon as Franky (father) came to church the first time with his daughter, things in the family started looking better. Then he came again...and bore his testimony in Sunday School of how he's felt about church and the Book of Mormon. Then he brought his whole family to church and we began teaching. They are a great family and hopefully I can see them get baptized before I leave this area...that gives me probably three weeks, depending on transfers, but at the rate we are going it will be accomplished. They are excited to learn and can't get enough of the gospel. That and conference was pretty much all that was real exciting this week. We have another investigator named June we've taught twice and she is enjoying the knowledge we give her, but I don't know how much "real intent" she has. God will give her some, if she keeps her commitments.So, what's new at home? Its probably started to cool down in the last few days. Oklahoma has been really nice to us the last month...weather wise. How's the house project? I bet its nice to have that tile in the kitchen. Well, thanks for all the motivation you give me! and thanks for the e-mails Malissa and Roger.

Love ya!-Elder Osness
