The love of the spirit!

Once again I love your letters and I love you! I have to admit that I don't have hardly any time to write today... Unfortunately today is transfer day and even though I am still serving in the same area with the same companion (Elder Di Iulio) I will now be serving with a third companion! That's right we are now the three musketeers! His name is Elder Peterman and he is from the wonderful city of San Diego California. But enough about me lets talk about you! The St. George McKenna's are rockin and rollin... Jeff had a great youth conference, Ellyse is 16 (which is just to crazy), Meghan can juggle a soccer ball longer then I can play a video game :), Jackson has his own personal 'critter zoo' under the trampoline where he keeps all of his great captures, and Carson is still just Joe Cool. Chelsey is apparently beginning to start up her own 'Sea pony' ranch and as for her amazing Birthday spectacular I have to suggest that Capital Grill is the only way to go for an amazing Birthday dinner! And
apparently Lisa's Bob hit the terrible realization that the English language is different then good ol' American when he asked for a 'cart' rather then a 'trolley' (not nearly as bad as complementing someone on their 'fanny pack'... trust me :P). I apologize for having to make this short but all I can really say is that I love you all far more then you can ever imagine! I love this country despite the terrible weather... the wind, rain, humidity, cold temperature, it doesn't matter I LOVE ENGLAND and I love the people. If there was one thing that I would wish for it would be, as Jeff and Alma said, that I were an angel and could speak so powerfully that everyone hearing my voice would want to commit to living the gospel of Jesus Christ and work to develop a testimony of the restoration. I know these things are true! The experiences I have seen and been a part of testify to me that they are! The joy that fills my soul and heart as I fight on the front lines, of this very real and important battle for the souls of men, assures me that there is a God! I know that Jesus Christ is the only begotten of the Father that by him and through him and of him
the worlds are and were created and the inhabitants are begotten sons and daughter unto God! I love my Heavenly Father so much and I know that he keeps me safe in his hands, that he loves me, and that he DOES answer prayers! To say that we can become like him, that we can become truly perfect is not idealistic gas but is truth! I know it, and I love it! I love you all, with a love that only the Spirit can bring
Elder McKenna

P.S. Jeff, things are going really well and I'll just have to see what happens
