This week was a pretty good week. We actually had a really busy week. My companion and I ended up teaching a total of 33 lessons this week. So that included us going on splits just about everynight of this week. but other than that things have been going really well. We have been teaching this guy named Sean who is going to be baptized this Saturday and I will let you know how that goes in my next e-mail.

But this week we have been teaching this guy named Lance and Lance is one awesome dude. We actually started teaching him because he has been living with a member of our area and he has grown up in Utah his whole life and has never really looked into the lds church. but anyways he started meeting with us and he told us right off the bat that he had been through alot of things in his life and we told him to pray about anything he wanted to. And all i got to say is that Lance has alot of faith, and becuase of that faith alot of his prayers had been answered. So for one he has had a really hard time finding work and he has been working for this one guy who wasn't going to pay him but his friend that he is living with now ran into that boss at a gas station and the boss gave his friend the check to give to Lance. so that is one miracle. Also his friend has a son and his son wans't feeling well and he had a really high fever and was just really sick.so we were asked to give a blessing and supposedly when we left the kid was just running around like he had never been sick, so that is another miracle he saw. also he has suffered with depression throughout his whole life and since he has been meeting with us and been praying and reading he said this has been the happiest time of his life. and he told us that he never imaged that he could be happy through religion and god. but he also came to church this week and when we were at church he had read from 1st nephi to jacob, which was a 3 day span. but he is really solid right now and he has a super amount of faith and i can defintly see it since we started meeting with him.

Things have been going really good here. I really like it here in Centerville. I know that the work will continue to go on.
