Email from Elder Lofthouse 3/16/15 Red Deer

Red Deer is great!!  I love it here.  It's super warm.  My new companion is Elder Wilkinson.  He's an awesome dude.  Because it's so warm, we decided that we needed to go running.  So we've gone running a lot.  It sucks.  I need to do it to get in shape though....

When I got here this area was "dead". Elder Wilkinson told me that it had been really slow, but then we got 6 referrals.  We've been doing a lot of contacting.  We have one referral that we contacted that wants to meet with us.  I love this work.

Elder Wilkinson and I listened to the talk "Trial of the Stick of Joseph" by Jack West.  It's pretty long, but it is the most incredible thing I've ever heard.    The Book of Mormon is true.  There is no denying that fact.  If you have not had this witness for yourself, I challenge you to take Moroni's challenge and read the book and pray about it.  If you pray with a sincere heart, you will get the witness that the Book of Mormon is true.  We can all learn a lot from it.  

I hope you all have a fantastic week!
