Greenie in Okeechobee

So another transfer has come and gone, and a crazy awesome one at that. We had a lot of fun, and had a lot of success. We worked super hard and the branch is super excited about missionary work. We have been able to be apart of a lot here. We were able to start someone on the 7 days to quit smoking program the other day, and she is now on day 6, and is doing awesome. She said she woke up and didn't even think about cigarettes until several hours later, when she realized that she did not want any. It is super cool. We are seeing a lot of potential for this month, and we think that we will be able to continue onward and upwards and hopefully make this branch a ward soon enough. Elder L is leaving now, he is a little upset, but he has been here for 6 months now so he has just about knocked the whole place. At least everything that is permitted by our miles to be knocked and followed up with. I will be getting a greenie here and training him for probably the next 3 months, so I should be here a while. It is pretty exciting, he most likely isn't even in the mission yet, and if he is he is probably getting off the plane right now. Nothing else is really that new, we had a good week with the members helping us out a ton, which is really helping the work.I do not have to much more to say, but I love you all, and I thank you for all that you do. I know that this is the Lord's work, and he always has a plan for everyone. I know that I am doing what he would have me do, and I know that he is here for me all of the time, to strengthen me, and to uplift me, and to guide me. I love you all. I hope to hear form you soon.
