Ever Onward

This was in some pictures we recieved a few weeks ago......

Hi everyone!
We just got a phone call from the mission office telling us that we're getting a new car!! It was a good morning to begin with, we both just felt really good and cheerful, and then we got the call about the new car, which made it even better.

We set a baptismal date with one of our investigators and this time we don't have to worry about his parents. His name is Chris. I may have mentioned him in a pervious letter but I don't remember. He is a med. student at SLU and is roommates with a member and has lots of member friends. He went to a baptism Sat. afternoon that the Zone Leaders had and loved it. Then when we taught him yesterday we set the date for the 10th of Oct. He is really solid and we don't have any worries. The only thing that would keep him from getting dunked on the 10th would be if he decided to move it sooner, which is a possibility he was thinking about.

Other than that we still don't have any solid investigators in the Chesterfield ward and depending on the week we have about three in the Parkway ward with Chris being the only one in the Singles Branch. We have done TONS of tracting this past week and it looks like its going to pay off. We have about 12 potentials in Chesterfield and a few more in Parkway and a lot of members have told us that they have friends that they want us to start teaching soon, a lot of them youth again but we'll take 'em.

Mom-you're right. the weather has been wonderful here. No, we have our own music so yeah you can send some if you would like. ....and yes Elder Nelson has the conference cds. Our money carries over from month to month. You know my feelings on dance festival, however, it could be a great missionary opportunity. Speaking of missionary opportunities, have you invited your friend over for dinner yet? Don't let that slip through the cracks.

Dad-I looked through my stuff and couldn't find a pedigree chart. I have stuff about the Major and about Idaho but nothing in-between. I was a little confused about how we got up there and which family we were from (Tuttle maybe?).

Keep opening your mouths and let the Lord guide you in your words. I can't begin to tell you how much easier tracting is when people know members.
Love,
Elder Egan
