Elder Keller got Transferred to a new area! {Helston to Redhill}

Hello everyone!

Just a heads up, emailing  is going to stink for me now because I no longer have 2 hours to email. I only have 1, so it's going to be brief.

so as you know my new area is Redhill. It's very different than Helston. VERY!! So I've never taught so many lessons in my life! We taught 18 lessons rather then 4 in Helston, so I'm getting a lot of experience!! I'm so grateful! Street contacting is a whole different world here. The first person I talked to here was on the street and we have an appointment with her on Friday...wow! So people are very receptive here! It's so great. People are human here! They have personalities and they are genuine. I'm not used to this! it' like I'm dreaming, ha ha! We have been teaching a lot of people and I've been feeling the spirit so much stronger then ever. It makes me want more and more!! We have been teaching this guy named "Binkey," he was baptized last Sunday by my comp, but he hasn't been given the Holy Ghost. so guess who got to do that yesterday?? Yeah... ME! I don't really know this guy that well, but we did teach him everyday last week until yesterday just to keep him feeling the spirit! Ha ha. So I gave him the blessing yesterday in sacrament meeting in front of a brand new ward that is 3 times bigger then my last ward in Helston, I've never confirmed someone before so I didn't know what to say, so I just confirmed him and just mentioned the holy ghost and how important it is and how it can bless our lives. I feel like I could have relied on the Lord for help a bit more. I was just so scared, but it went alright. Oh by the way Binkey's real name is AZEEM U DIN JOHN SADAM USEEM ALIBAIH MO HAMMID.... yeah, that was really tough to remember when I was confirming him...it was crazy!! haha but it was great! I love the guy! He's from India!

Anyways I have no time now, I love and miss all of you so much!! I hope everything is going well!

The church is true and I'm excited for the work here in Redhill!

GO MITT!!

I love you!! Cheers!

Hello!

So I'm sorry that I didn't email you guys yesterday, it's because we had MOVES! So Sunday morning I got a call and I was told that I'm moving up to this area called Redhill and it's up by Londonish, so it's very different then Helston, ha! Sunday I had to pack obviously and I had the leave that night so we went to church and I was able to say my goodbye's. I bore my testimony to the ward and thanked them for everything they've done for me the last 7 months, it was good and sad. I had to say my goodbye's to my best friend in the ward, Brett Jolliffe/the Jolliffe family, it was sad. I love the Helston ward so much. After church I basically packed all day and visited some people and said goodbye. At church we actually had 2 gators there so once I flippin leave we get gators coming to church...!! GOSH! Ha ha but that's great! So the zone leaders came to our flat at 10:00pm Sunday night and I had to drive up to Newton Abbot, with Elder McCook and some sisters. It was a very late, tiring, night..haha I drove the car and we didn't get to our destination till 3:30am. I was and am still so tired...The next morning got up dark and early and traveled up to the London Temple! It was great! It was all like 7 hours of driving, so I'm exhausted.

My new companion is Elder Fingerle, he's from Germany! He's a wonderful kid, I'm follow up training him.. so its fun! He's very humble and funny ha ha, so yep right now I'm in RedHill and this morning we taught a lady named Susan, and she is now a new investigator and we will see her next week...wow! Already there is success! This area is pretty successful I hear so I'm very excited! We will be teaching a lot more than I did down in Helston.

So anyways I sure love and miss all of you! Thank you for all your support! Please keep your emails limited...haha I logged in and I had 44 emails...wow...I love all of you too!! But its a little sketchy, cause then I feel like I have to respond to ALL of them haha. So basically I'm talking to dad, Scott Keller...haha love all of you!!!

Cheers! ;)

October 22, 2012 {Wow! Sorry for the lack of updates! Getting caught up:)}

Hey everyone!

This week was probably the slowest week, but it's alright, we did have exchanges so that was good! I went to the big city Plymouth with one of our Zone leaders, I had a lot of fun with Elder Livingston, he's probably the funniest kid I've ever met. He's from Layton and lives right next to Quail Cove! haha.

This week we only taught 5 lessons, but I did felt the spirit strong in those lessons! Our only baptismal date that we had dislocated her shoulder and moved back to London, so I'm a little sad, but its okay because she still wants to be baptized!! We are teaching a lot of old people haha its pretty fun and interesting, so not too much happened this week.

Yesterday we had Stake Conference! President Millar (mission pres) came down and spoke. Lots of people spoke and it all was about the Atonement pretty much. I love learning more about the Atonement! It was wonderful! After we had interviews with president, I love our mission president, he's a wonderful man! 

Sorry guys this is a lame email, but people are rushing me right now to get off the computer, so I'm really sorry!

 

The pictures are sweet!! Where the pilgrims left, super cool!

And we went to Michael's Mount again last week! and I sat on the same sofa the the Queen did!! So I thought that was cool! :)

 

Cheers everyone!! I love and miss all of you! I know the church is true and I love being a representative of our Savior!

 

 PS: I'm wearing a sweet lime green and black Man U jersey! ;)
