Dear Family:

Well it has been another week in Indianola and there has been another general conference weekend.  It was all definitely inspired and there was a lot of revelation received by all.  Me and Elder Huxford watched all sessions at our branch building.  The first session we had the building all to our selves and then the other sessions we had members with us.  And for the last session yesterday we had our investigator come and watch it with us.  That was great to see her there and I hope she enjoyed it.  Hopefully she had questions answered. 

Well this is transfer week and we will actually get our transfer calls today.  We have not had our calls yet but we are sure that me and Elder Huxford are staying for another transfer.  So I will let you all know next week if I am still in Indianola or in some other area.

Well it sounds like the weather will be great for this next week.  Probably the last time we will have it too before it gets cold.  The mission has gone by way to fast.  I am almost to the four month mark.  Hopefully they go by slow.  Love you all and the Gospel is true!

Sincerely;

Elder Spencer Ariotti

Dear Family:

Well it has been a long and very tiring week in Indianola.  We have been working our hardest and there have been many people rejecting us and our message.  But it was a good week in that we have learned much and visited with many members.  We have been sharing with them that there are blessings that enter into our life and that have yet to enter into our life as we share the Gospel.  No matter if they accept or reject it we are promised this.

It has been very nice weather here.  It is getting cooler and the leaves are changing a little bit and there is a lot more rain storms.  And then October is around the corner, this year is going by way to fast for me.  And another transfer will be ending next week!  This will mean that I have 3 more transfers left!  Hopefully it doesnt all pass by so fast.

Well I love you all!  Look forward to conference.  It is a great time to recieve revelation.

Sincerely;
Elder Spencer Ariotti

Dear Family:

Well it has been a great week in Indianola.  We were able to visit a lot of people this week and help them.  We meet with an old investigator that we have been trying to reach for a while and meet her boyfriend that is also interested.  They have a long ways to go but they have definitely been prepared for us to teach and visit.  Our other investigator is at a hold up and we will just be working very slowly with her to solve her problems.  So the work is going slow but it is going.

This week will be another good one since we have a lot of appointments already scheduled which is a first for this area.  We have a lot of member appointments and we will be talking to them about sharing the gospel with people.  This is something that people struggle with but Elder Gay told us to focus on the members to get to 550 baptisms for this year.  So we will work our hardest and see the fruits come.

This truly is Gods work here on earth!  The Gospel does bless lives and there are people that have been prepared for all of us to touch and bring joy.  Love you all!

Sincerely;

Elder Spencer Ariotti
