Dear Family,

A lot of crazy things have been happening here. About 5 people went home this week so they had to emergency transfer 2 of my district members out to fill in the places of those people, so now the district is down to 4 people. They shut down the Spanish walking area. It was pretty intense! It was really warm and sunny in the beginning of last week that we were getting excited thinking that spring was coming. Then we had a freezing rain storm which wasn't fun because we were walking around and we were frozen icicles with ice just forming all over us. Yesterday it started snowing and now we have about 3-4 inches of snow! Just last week all the snow had melted and it was sunny! Bummer, now we are back to snow and ice!

This week we had a lot of good things happen. Lmp means lessons with a member present, which are the lessons that they are really focusing on us getting. 8 is the number the bar is set to, and this week we got 10! We also had 7 people to church As of last night, we have 7 baptisms dates! Rick (the one that wasn't really progressing and didn't want anything to do with baptism) somehow the spirit really worked with him in our lesson last night and he said he would get baptised! So we were really happy about that! Also the Phillips (Princess and Alan) are 27 yrs old and they have been coming to church and everything is working out on him getting baptised! He is really excited about it! Marsha and Mariah are a mom and daughter that used to meet with missionaries. We are going over there tonight to have dinner and teach them a lesson! I think we have 5 lmps for just tonight! We are leading the zone right now in those numbers and dates and people to church!

The Mulhollands are going great. Scott, the dad, came to church the other day and he is really excited to get baptised too. But the 2 girls, Brook and Kayla, are probably the most excited. They are already in 2 Nephi with their reading and they just are so excited, they love it so much! The mom said at church they are here to stay, so we were really happy with that! :)

Things have been going really good for us! We have a baptism for every weekend in March except the 5th, and that's when we are going to Kirtland! :) We have the Mulhollands and the Londons(Marsha and Mariah), Rick, and tonight we are going to probably get 3 more with some of our appointments, so we should have 10 by this week!

Yes, Chris is awesome! We have an apointment every hour tonight from 4 to 8 and he is coming with us and will be driving so he really helps us out a lot! I hope everyone is having a great week! Hope everyone is doing well and having fun! Love you and choose the right! :)

Love, Elder Price
