Dear Family:

Well it has been another week in Indianola.  I have just received transfer calls and I am staying while my companion Elder Huxford is leaving to a new area while training.  All I know is that I am staying.  Not sure how old my new companion is or his name.  Did I ever mention how much I dislike transfers?  There is a lot of stress and it is not very pleasant to go through.  But there is new adventure that is awaiting.

Well this was actually a hard week.  We dropped one investigator because she was not progressing and didnt want to.  Another because he left the room while we were knocking on his door to meet with him.  And another because he left to go urbandale.  So we are now down to one investigator that we are on good speaking terms with.  And she is very frustrated right now because her boyfriend left her.

But we have been working hard to find new people.  And we will continue to do so with the new missionary that will be coming.  I will continue to work my hardest at proclaiming the Gospel so that all people will have the opportunity to hear about it.  Love you all!  Keep us in your prayers!

Sincerely;
Elder Spencer Ariotti
