Worn Out Shoes

Its been another great week in Oakville!!

Transfer calls were Sat. Yeah, Elder Jenkins is going home and you'll never guess who I'm getting, It's Elder Westfall, my MTC companion! Its going to be a fun transfer. We are also getting a lot of other really good Elders in the zone, its going to be a really great transfer. Speaking of a great transfer, the whole misison is going to a Cardinals game on the 4th. The mission arranged for a "Mormon night" at the stadium. It's going to be a lot of fun.

We were sitting at church yesterday and I looked at the bottom of my shoes, and the heels were starting to peel offI was kinda mad because they are really good shoes. I'm pretty sure that they'll last the last 8 months but if not I have my other pair.

Our investigator finally stayed for all three hours of church yesterday, we were really excited and she loved it.
We were able to go to the temple on Sat morning. It was great and I got a lot of neat insights that connected a bunch of my studies dealing with the Tree of Life vision and "mountains" in the scriptures. However, I also came up with a ton of questions that I really want answered, but it will be hard especially only going to the temple once a transfer. Oh well, good thing there are plenty of temples to go to when I get home.

Mom-No, i wasn't able to go to Linda and Seans baptism this weekend. I wanted to really bad though. I interviewed Sean for baptism and Elder Jenkins interviewed Linda. We were planning on going, but we had to do some team ups with some elders that we had kept putting off. We were really disappointed that we missed it. "Have you been to Forest Park?" YES, the zoo and everything is there. "Route 66?" YES, thats were Ted Drews is. "Ted Drewes restraunt??" YES, its delicious. We're going again tonight. "Have you tried Fitz's Rootbeer?" YES, its alright. "People have raved about the Botanical Gardens...which I know you went to...then of course there are alot of museums." Yes, working on all those. "Have you been to the one with the bus hanging halfway off the roof?" YES and no. The building is the City Museum and its crazy fun, but the roof was 5 more dollars so we didnt go up there.

Dad-I was looking through a book that the Bankheads had about their family history and came across some Egans that live out somewhere in Idaho. Wade William Egan and his dad William Alva Egan. Wade married one of the Bankheads Nieces. Crazy who you run into out here.
Anyway,
Love,
Elder Egan
