Week # 32 7 months & a Scorpion .........

Well how did the last week go for you guys??
I hope everyone is doing great and that you are all enjoying school and the abnormal warm winter. Here in my area it is still is crazy hot and I am dying in the heat!  The breeze is dying down and it is almost what they call "Santa Semana" which means holy week. Everyone says it is the worst week to be in Costa Rica. During that week the sun is its closest to Costa Rica and there is no such thing as a breeze during this week, They say it is so hot that the dust doesn't even get up to move... so ya that will be a week to try and live through, but besides that my week was a real normal and fun week. My companion and I have been working hard We are getting to the house exhausted each night so I will say we are working with success and working hard. In my district we are working hard to try and have 15 confirmations between the 8 of us for the month of March. Today my capacitation I set up a plan of action with my district so that we can reach our goal. It will take us contacting and teaching more than ever before but we want to see the miracles in March. Aside from that we have not had anything new happen Well... I guess aside from the scorpion I found in my house last night... ya it startled us all a little but we got him sent to the spirit world for now. :) I will send some pictures of that.
For valentines day the elders all went to the Mexican restaurant here in town and it was amazing and then when I got home I opened the letter and package I received on Saturday it was a good and successful day of work and stuffing our face. We saw lots of miracles in this last week but I will hold off on telling them until next week after the baptisms.
Well I hope you are all doing good and I love you all very much!
Thanks for all the support and for the examples you have all been.


Elder Ferrin 

I had asked him a few Questions in my email and this was his response:

Hey mom I am doing fantastic and things here are moving forward. Today starts the day of some pretty crazy hard working. We have made some great goals for the month of March and if we do our part we will reach them all. Yes I am one of the district leaders and Elder Kirk is the district leader of the neighboring district so we team up and do some pretty great activities. President made it back to the mission and his first message to the mission was " I am back and now is the time to conquer more mountains" so we are about to conquer the mountain of 250 baptisms in March. But yes mom things are fantastic!! I hope you know I love you and that things here are fantastic for me and my companion. I love you mom.









Thanks to all the family & friends who send him letters & packages.  
He said it is so nice to receive letters out of the blue.
