Hey Family and Friends!
This is going to have to be a short letter this time. We have another Zone P-day and we're supposed to meet at the church.
This week has been a good one. We have been exploring our new area, which is pretty big. I cover some of my old area from Quail Creek, and we are getting a lot of members from different units coming to our ward now. We will have to wait till next Sunday to see how big the attendance is, but according to records, we have a bit more than 70% of the ward listed as active.
There's a lot to do here and not a lot of time to get it accomplished. Our Bishop is amazing. We are going to have some of the best members in Oklahoma!
So, basically everyone I was working with before is no longer in my area except for the Welch kids. They're growing in testimony, and it's pretty awesome to see.
We discovered the Lewis family, a part member family. The husband, Zach, isn't a member. We stopped by and talked a bit to get to know them.
Piedmont will most likely be our base of operations in the near future. Not sure how long it will be till we move but we have to find a place and get it approved by Salt Lake, so it could take a little while.
I loved General Conference. Seriously, it's better than Christmas! Remember the immense blessing it is to have prophets and apostles here in these days. Don't let the naysayers get you to doubt your faith; opposition is a reality of this probationary state. Just make the real decision to stay on the righteous side no matter what, and you will receive incredible blessings.
I love my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I am so glad he took the burden of my sins and weaknesses and allowed me to accept his atonement. I am grateful to him for reaching out once more to the children of men and restoring the true church. I know that he lives and that he loves me and you.
Thanks for your loving support,
Elder Holbrook
