Some pretty cool things have happened this week! One of the guy's we have been teaching (we'll call him Tim) has given up coffee completely!  He is in his forties and has been drinking 3 cups a day since he was ten!!  Miracle? I think so. Also, the guy from Africa that we have been teaching has a baptismal date set! The crudy thing about that one is that he won't be in our ward.  He will have to be in a different one because he lives two blocks out of our boundaries!  The reason we didn't know this was because we taught him at his work (he works at a residential home) and figured he lived in town because he goes to school there, but nope!  He lives out in the booneys!  Oh well, the neat thing about that is that there is a lot of Africans in the ward he will be going to and we can continue teaching him until he is baptized.

 My companion and I and two other missionaries were interviewed for a HUGE column in the Wisconsin State Journal! on the front page!  The title is "Mormon Moment" and it is really good!  The only crudy thing is that I'm the only one not quoted! lol and the only one not from Utah... don't know if there is a correlation there or not oh well, it's a good article, you should look it up!

SHOUT OUT TO MALORY! thanks for the letters! I'm your favorite roommate!
