August 10 First Transfer

Greetings for the last time from St. Peters,
We got our transfer calls last night. I'll be headed to Chesterfield Mo. Its pretty close to St. Peters and the same kind of area except everyone is really rich (so i hear). My new comp will be Elder Nelson. It's a full time car area so i'll be out of the heat for most of the summer. The weather has been warming up these past few days. The heat index was over 100 so a car will be a welcome change. Transfers are on Wed. so I'll be able to wrap some things up here. I'll be close enough to come back for the baptisms though, which I'm really greatfull for. This week has been really good. After sacrament yesterday, Denise came up to us with some awesome news. She's engaged now!! The wedding still isn't for a year but its at least starting to come along now. and with some more of the Lords help she'll be baptized much sooner than that. Adria is getting really excited for her baptism and so is Bro. Gratiot (her husband, it was a part member family) so he'll be able to baptize his wife. Wenton is doing great too. the last meeting with him he told us that he would get baptized! He just doesn't know when yet. He is still looking for a sign to be absolutly sure, It'll come though. We've had so many appointments and so many more coming that we almost have enough to do splits. That would be awesome if we could. We were contacting in a small park the other day and came across this lady in her car. We started talking to her and we quickly realized that we weren't going to get anywhere. She called us a cult, but this time it was different. Usually when people call us a cult it is very negative and attacking but this lady was nice about it and called us her favorite cult. It was really funny. She had been given A LOT of false doctrine but it was hallarious to talk to her becasue she had no idea what she was saying. Anyway, I'm really excited to go to Chesterfield but sad at the same time. this area is great. And typical me, I forgot the new adress sitting on my desk back home. So for now just send everything, if anything, to the mission office. Mom-we went to the temple with some members. it was ward temple night and we had a 7:00 session. No Elder Reese didnt eat any so he didnt get sick. So far i dont think we've had any lasagna, i could be wrong though. Oh, and bytheway, mix it up when you have the elders over and dont just have the same thing (chicken noodle casserole). they'll appreciate it mucho. Chios though, im a bit jealous. Those do sound really good just too bad it wasnt for a better occasion. Dad-take it easy and dont do too much. Josh-sounds like it was a lot of fun. Make sure you get the most out of young men and scouts, pretty soon you wont have it. good luck at band camp. As we ride down past the different schools, i see all the band practices and just get a big smile on my face. Keep up the good work.
I just remembered. I'll be living with members in Chesterfield, so it'll be a new experience. I guess I'll have to make my bed now, (dont worry, i usually...well sometimes do it anyway).
Love you all,
Elder Egan
