Hey Family!
Well it sounds like a lot is going on back home. I'm glad Sam enjoyed the little package. I know the fish were random but I thought he might like them anyways. Tanner Tanner Tanner, Here's the score board Tanner = 2 crashes (that i know of); Rest of the Kids = 0, love ya Tanner Brother. So you definately need to write me and tell me about your date, it’s about time you finally went on one I mean you've only been sixteen for six months.
Not much new is going on here in Oregon. I think Transfers are next Tuesday so we'll find out on Saturday I think is how they said it works here. I don't think I’ll get transferred but I guess we don't know. I hope I don't this really is such a nice place and I love the people here. But I guess if the Lord thinks I need to go then I need to go.
We're are still out looking a lot of the time for people to teach, we did receive quite a few referrals this week and we haven't been around to all of them yet so hopefully we'll get a few new investigators this week. I don't remember if I told you or not but we cover two wards, one in Florence and one in Reedsport. We have been spending a little more time visiting less active's and recent converts because the percent of people attending church is very very low. So we've been visiting them asking them why they don't come to church and seeing if we can get them back to church. Next Sunday we should have a lot of less actives and nonmembers there because it's invitation Sunday so everyone should be bringing someone to church. The actually asked me and my companion to speak in sacrament meeting, so I guess we'll see how that goes.
So the weather is pretty sporadic, one second it'll be raining super hard then the next it'll be nice and sunny. I don't mind it but it is just a little too cold for my liking.
There's not much more that went on this week, just the normal stuff. I hope all is just dandy back home. Thanks for the letters and the package you sent for Halloween. Thanks for all you do for me I love you guys a ton.
Love, Elder Stephenson
