Dear Family:

Well it has been another week in Indianola.  It has been cold for a few days and then it will get warm for a few days only to switch back.  This next week we will be staying warm for a little while then let some snow maybe come by Thursday.  I have also heard that next week will be a cold one for sure.  Hopefully it will be able to snow for christmas at least.  I am really looking forward to that day with skyping.  Hopefully most of you guys will be able to make it.  If not then I will be able to see you in about 2 months for sure.

Well this week not a whole lot happened with investigators.  We had exchanges with another set of Elders in there area so that was fun and good.  Then on Thursday we had a big christmas Zone conference and that was really fun.  We had trainings from our leaders and testimonies from leaving missionaries (including me).  Then in the afternoon we had all the districts give short skits which was really amusing.  Some you could tell had only a few hours to prepare while others had some more time on there hands.  We had a lot of fun though.  Then we finished it off by watching the new movie: Ephraims Rescue.  That was a really great movie.  If you have not watched it I highly recommend it.  So those where the main highlights of the week.

Well this next week we will be getting a lot more member meals thanks to our new coordinator.  So we will not be eating a lot of ramen this next week.  Well I love you all and I know that this message, the gospel, blesses and changes lives.

Sincerely;
Elder Spencer Ariotti
