My Wonderful Elders & Sisters,
I can't believe that it has been now one full week that Sister Richardson & I have been here in Florida with you. We have "met" you all, have looked into your faces, and felt all of your warm & wonderful spirits. And now, we are getting ready for our first transfer... "tomorrow"...!?!
I have also had the chance to meet with our Area Authority (Elder Robinson), and also with all of our great Stake Presidents....and their support of the missionary program, support of you Sisters & Elders, and supporting the great influx of convert baptisms, has been absolutely thrilling....! President Boggess, Temple President was also there, and I was able to work with the Stake Presidents & President Boggess, to help get the ball rolling for holding "Temple Tours" on the tour grounds, for your investigators and/or inactive members to come and get more information about the Temple, feel the wonderful "spirit" that exists there, and get them excited to be able to ultimately come there and be able to be endowed, or be sealed "for time & all eternity" to their wife and children....and complete the path that they had started walking down, when they were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ....
I have "loved" being with you, and once we get past this whole "transfer thing", I really look forward to coming out with you, as you teach your investigators, and show me first hand, how this amazing and wonderful "Harvesting" is done....
Now, be: perfectly obedient, righteous in your thoughts and actions, love your companions, members, and investigators with all your heart, pray fervently to the Lord to put those "prepared spirits" into your paths, and always remember to be humble and thankful for all that you have been blessed with, from a very loving, Father in Heaven....
We Love You All!
