Running into my last transfer‏







Dear Family, Pictures: District picture, a bunch of the missionaries after district meeting, and me waiting on the stairs on exchanges for our ride to an appointment. Another good week in the mission! We committed four people to be baptized in the past week, three of which before my time runs dry. Its been so great to find all these people to teach and we may end up before I finish getting a few more people baptism dates to prepare for. The field is ready to harvest! We got transfer calls yesterday and Elder Madsen is already headed out. It was a quick transfer! He's not going too far though, just the next area over. And I'll be training again, for the fourth time. Elder Cannon from Idaho will be my new companion.So, last night we were visiting a member who has recently began making steps back into activity in the church and its been a struggle to be consistent. We had a really good lesson and its one of those moments that help you know why you are where you are and that your calling is really from God. The way things work out the way they do is because God has a plan and his ways will be fulfilled. If we follow his guidance and heed the council of the spirit we can be assured we are being led by our Father in Heaven even if we don't know why things are the way they are, but will if we remain faithful we will achieve the blessing....not all blessings are temporal, but many are spiritual.Things are great! I love you all and will see you in a few short weeks! -Elder Osness
