Its been another great week in Fayette!
I thought about just leaving it at that and saying "I'll see you in a few days" but I figured that these emails are probably more consistant and detailed than my journal is for the most part so I'll write again.
We had a really good day yesterday at church. John came again! He is doing really well. He told us this last week that he wants to be baptized!! So they're going to shoot for the end of the month probably. He also has this little lake on his property and so he took us out fishing. We are going back today to spend most the day out there fishing and just relaxing. We had a good lesson with Dilbert. We also saw a few people in the branch last night and got some pics with them. Its a great branch and I'll miss them. All our other investigators are doing well.
Mom-So....yeah, transfers are on Wed (like normal) and then all the returning missionaries go to the Temple with the Clarks and I think the Assistants. They also take us to dinner and Ted Drews. From what I hear we also spend some time in St. Louis. Then we have our final interview with Pres. and leave in the morning. As for the rest of the week...I don't know.
Dad-hopefully some more conversations about the church will help him, thats great!
So I guess in closing as I reflect on the past two years and all that has happened I can say without hesitation that the Lord literally has his hand in this work. As I put my tag on this morning I realized that I will only be able to do that for a few more days. How easy it is to stand as a witness of Christ with that little black tag. I may not be soggy from being in the font every weekend but I can say with Ammon that I glory in the Lord and "by His hand I have worked many mighty miracles in this land for which I will praise His name forever." I testify that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Lords true church. That the Book of Mormon is true and that we are lead by a living prophet and twelve living apostles today. I testify of the power and reality of the Priesthood by which miracles are performed, for I have seen it.
I'll see you soon,
Love,
Elder Egan
