Dear Family,
Elder Oldroyd is getting transferred to Rurutu tomorrow. He is the best and coolest Elder that there ever was. If you ever get a chance to see him say thanks!
Yesterday we had zone conference with President Hinckley's son. He gave us some great instructions. He told us that it is very important to work with less active members. There was a mission that worked just with these members and their baptisms also skyrocketed. He didn't really explain how that worked, but it did. So, maybe we should all give some of these members some cookies or invite them to FHE. It was super cool listening to Elder Hinckley speak. It was just like listening to his Dad. Also we got to ride back with him in the car and hear lots of cool stories about his Dad and what it was like being the son of the prophet. His dad was called to be an apostle while he was on his mission, so he said that they had some pretty powerful lessons about how the church was organized the same way it was with Jesus.

Also, I royally crashed on my bike. Let's just say it hurt and also don't do stupid things.
Missionary work is awesome and super difficult. I've learned alot and I feel like I've been here only a few weeks because there is so much more to do and learn. The time is short. Happy Thanksgiving.
Love yall
Love Elder Cosby
