Dear Family:
Well it has been a very stressfull week of packing and then unpacking. I am now serving in the Fairfield Branch in Iowa. Fairfield is south of Iowa City. It has been interesting serving in a branch so far. The work for the area is slow for now. We have maybe two investigators but one of them we are having a hard time contacting. The branch members are great here. My companion is a Elder that I served around and was actually once my district leader. His name is Elder Beck and he is from Alpine, Utah (I think). It has been great being able to serve with him so far.
In our district we have a senior couple that is serving in our area. And the other members of our district are Hermanas. I can finally say that I know how the sisters felt during district meeting when they were one of the only two sisters in the meeting. But the Hermanas we have are great. We have 3 in one area and two in the other. This is because of the increase of sisters coming out. After district meeting me and Elder Beck had the great opportunity to give all of the sisters blessings in the district. It has been hard for all of them because all of them have not been out in the field for very long. It was a very good experience.
Well other then that I guess the only other thing that is going on is that President and Sister Jergensen are preparing to leave the mission. It will be sad to see them go but I am excited to have President and Sister Jensen come into the field to lead and guide us. We will be having a fairwell meeting in a week or so to say goodbye. Then a few weeks later we will be meeting to invite the new ones in. I will let you know how that goes when they happen. Well I love you all and I know this Gospel is true!
Sincerely;
Elder Spencer Ariotti
