From the Land Down Under: Catching Fire and Yo Momma!

Hey Family,

I hope your week has been great and you all are happy and healthy. For me down here it was nice. It cooled down for a couple days it even rained yesterday which was really nice. Me and Elder Kay are working hard trying to find some new people to increase our teaching pool. Our hard work is paying off; we have been able to triple our teaching pool over the last week and a half. I was on exchanges with the zone leaders the other day and we were teaching a lesson to our investigator from Africa. The Spirit was so strong. I had an impression to invite him to be baptized even though this was only the second time we had been with him and the first lesson we had taught him. But I followed it (the Spirit) and invited him to be baptized. He instantly accepted and he is on date for the Nov. 14th. He has a lot to learn in little time but we have the faith that he will be able to learn everything and be ready for that date.

Our district had a baptism on Saturday too! The sister's investigator was baptized!

Our areas has caught fire and the Lord has blessed the people here with a soft heart and open ears. We also had zone conference this week. It was nice to be able to receive training from President Fife and others. It was nice to see all the missionaries from the two zones and be able to catch up with them. Elder Kay and I are loving our area and super excited to see what the future holds for our area.

I hope to hear from you all and I hope this week is great.

I have a joke for you....."yo momma so mormon that she thinks having a coffee table is against the word of wisdom." sorry if that was not funny but I found it really funny. I think missionary humor is different than regular humor..... anyways

I love you all!

Love,

Elder Leatherow
