So our internet is down again so this is going to be short.  I'm am staying in Paris, TN for another 6 weeks and I am with the same companion Elder Dempsey.

 

Things are going good we are teaching Alvin Travice still.  Things are going good, President Mckee is going to baptize him on the 15th - we wrangeld him into it :)

Everything is going super good ....

This just in: snow here in Tenn. The past two days it's been raining hard and flooding the area and now snow. lol  Whatever will they do? :)

 

 

So this Saturday we got to meet Russel M. Nelson.  It was pretty cool.  He was shorter than I thought, lol.  He spoke on a lot of things, but the biggest thing was be prepared for lots of people to start joining the gospel.     So I hope I'm ready! lol

Hello, hello!

So finally we have gotten this man, Alvin Travis, to commit to being baptized on the 15th of December.  This is 8 months of effort from missionaries and this ward, this is a big step for Paris.     He is an ex-pastor for three congregations and loves to talk about church so much he can't be quiet.  He is 100 % open to everyone about the Book of Mormon and the Latter Day Saints (Tommy Monson) and (Christ Jesus) drag the 'e' on Jesus... he is a really big black man, he's pretty cool.

We are now teaching the man who sold Ralf Brotherson his big tall rig.  He said he will only listen to someone who has drilled before ... lol.  I don't know why but that's what he said. :)    He does not believe there is a god though, so piece of cake ... :)

Everthing is going good.  We are very busy with people.  We have been working with too many people so we have had to cut half so we could focus on people and teach with more clarity.  Time is going too fast. I wish I could describe it a lot better so U'ens could see the true work and wonders that happen every second ...

 Love, Caleb
