Well no word yet on transfers all I know is that it is weird and weird and
weird and weird and weird and weird and weird.... (one hour later) and weird,
that Elder Bailey is leaving and that I am out 10 MONTHS now... it is really
quite awful, and wonderful to think about all that has happened.
As many people have pointed out to me Christmas is coming up!!! You former
missionaries I want to know how you obtained the spirit of Christmas out here
away from family? please write me ASAP I am going insane trying to think of
ideas.
Also on Christmas is this from our mission office:
Dear Missionaries:
Since there are no transfers during the month
of December, please have your family and friends send your Christmas letters and packages
directly to your apartment. Transfers are on November 21, so when
you send out your weekly email on November 25, please inform your family of your
current address and tell them to send your packages to that address. We
strongly recommend using Priority Mail, as there is always a
chance of an emergency transfer. Again, we remind you that packages sent
Priority Mail or 1st
Class are the only packages that can be forwarded. Packages sent
“Standard Post” or “Parcel Post” cannot be forwarded, and UPS and FedEx do NOT
offer forwarding service. Note that most items ordered on line are sent via UPS
or Fed Ex. Zone Conferences start on December 10th,
and that is the last chance a package has to get to you before Christmas if we
cannot forward it. Any package that arrives at the Mission Office after
December 9 that cannot be forwarded will not get to you until Transfers on
January 2, 2014. We know how important your packages are to you, and we
try our best to get them to you as quickly as possible. However, the number of
packages that cannot be forwarded is becoming difficult to manage. PLEASE,
PLEASE tell your family and friends to use Priority Mail and
follow the instructions provided above.
I will let you know about My address but more than likely it will be the
same as it is now.
note from Marlene: Daniel's current physical address (at least til Nov 20) is
735 North Park Ave, Apt #22 Centerville, IA 52544.
We sent a package over 3 weeks ago through the mission office, and as far as we know it is still sitting in the Zone leader's apartment several towns away. The office method of sending packages is not working out very well right now.
This week has been AMAZING spiritually, we found TWO new investigators and
they are really progressing. Their names are Tracey and Emily, Tracey is single
and Emily is her 13 year old daughter. We found them while knocking on doors in
the area around the square (not exactly the best area in town) and they are
angels in this dark part of town and we love them both.
Frank and Jenny are doing great no real progress with the gospel when we
are not there but we are reading the Book of Mormon with them and maybe that
will help them with something we don't know about.
We also found some very promising potential investigators that are
wonderful please pray that the appointment this Friday with Steven, Sam,
Cassandra, and Clarence will go good. We both agree that at least Steven has
really been prepared for this gospel.
Love you all,
Elder Keeley
