But things have beeng going really well in the Centerville Area. We taught 22 lessons this week, which was awesome (and that also includes less-actives, and recent converts). But the sad thing was that alot of the lessons that we had scheduled cancelled on us. But kind of the Sad thing this week was that we are teaching this guy named Cletus, who is frome Benin, Africa and he wants to get baptized, but his student visa expired and he is now undocumented, and he does have an MBA, but he can't work anywhere becuase of his immigration status, but he was going to be baptized this saturday, but he found a job in Texas for a couple of weeks so he has already gone down there to earn some money but he will be back in 3 weeks and so we should get him baptized by then.
Also we have been teaching this guy named Sean and we have taught him 2 lessons so far and he is pretty excited to get baptized and we were talking to him and he has worked on several temples around the United States including the Nauvoo temple, and he did the electrical work on them, but he has a baptismal date of March 19th and we tried to set some more lessons up with him but he hasn't answered the door for us and it has been kind of frustating with him becuase he was so solid and was super excited to get baptized but then he won't answer the doors for lessons and we could hear him inside like playing video games and stuff. but anwyays we talked to the fellowship member, who happnes to be a doctor and he was telling us how Sean is kind of bi-polar and goes into werid mood swings and he kind of isolates himself from the world, but yesterday the member told us that he saw him yesterday at his clinic and he talked to him and supposedly Sean is taking it seriously. So hopefully we can start teaching him again.
Also we have been teaching these 2 unbaptized girls that we tratcted into the other day their names are Sierra and Serenity and they are 13 and 10..I think. but anyways we taught them a couple of lessons and they do not have a baptismal date yet but that is only becuase when they were living in Salt Lake they were being taught by missionaries there and the missionaries wanted t hem to get baptized in 2 weeks and that kind of turned them off so we are just taking things slow with them right now. But the sucky part was that all those people I just talked about didn't show up to church, which was a total bummer...but hopefully we can get them to chruch this next week. But anyways hope things are going well with you and hope you guys have wonderful week.
Love
Elder Miller
