Hello, one and all, to this week's episode of Elder Furphy's life. (aka a pretty cool show and it has some fun stories along the way😉) Anywho, this week was pretty sweet! I was able to go on a couple exchanges, be Waldo a little bit 👌, and I was able to talk with some Romanians. What else could an Elder ask for? So let's get to it 🤠 Maybe I get this vest? So, I was able to go on an exchange, with Elder Carraway, this week and that was super fun! We had a good ol' time walking around, and street contacting some people. We were able to share the Family Proclamation with some people. Then, we had a lesson at the church in the afternoon with Matthew, one of our progressing people, buuuuuuut they slept in and we rescheduled the lesson for the next day.  Then, we got a curve-ball to our plans, cuz one of the Elders in the zone was still at the doctors with another Elder and they both happened to be trainers.

Hello,hello, hello!!!!!!!! Y'all are pretty cool 😏 So this week was pretty sweet. We had some key lessons with the people we are teaching. So, here's what went down... 1) We had a great visit with Ellen. We stopped by her house, just to see how she was doing, because she has been feeling really sick lately. Well, she was home and she let us in! We talked about the Book of Mormon and watched a Book of Mormon video and afterwards she brought up her baptismal date. We asked her if she wanted to set a new date for baptism and she said yes!!! She is planning on getting baptized on the 9th of November. It's gonna be so sweet! Ellen is literally so cool. 2) We had a sweet lesson with Mark. We talked about General Conference and how he liked it.  He said he wished that he could watch it every week. Nice Mark. We then talked about Elder Uchtdorf's talk and how he can get on the covenant path. We asked Mark if he would like to set a goal to be baptized. He, at first, said ...
