[Our investigator from Venezuela] goes back on the 20th and was/is doing really well, but he doesn't want to get baptized until after he goes to venezuela. We were shooting for this weekend, but he wants to talk to his parents and fiancee about it. He loves coming to church and reading the book of mormon, but wants more time before baptism. He is flying back to texas in april for an engineering conference and has put flying back here to get baptized and then returning to venezuela, but we are just going to send off his information to the missionaries down there and see what they can do. We had one investigator who was FINALLY coming to church today after weeks of praying for sundays off and then getting transferred to another store where her boss would let her get some sundays to go to church, and then her boss forgot to put that on the schedule. She traded shifts to get this sunday off, and then got a call that her pregnant daughter was having birthing pains so she couldn't come anyway. That was more than a little frustrating.
> That is cool that Giselle is [starting to take the discussions]. Elder Villalobos is getting transferred (we find out where to tomorrow) after being here since July. I'm staying, so if I leave this area the next transfer then I will have been here an equally inordinate amount of time. Odds are that I will be here longer though. You really can't find counselors out of 11 units? We have a hard time with that in our branch, but that's cause there just aren't enough people. The high priests group leader and mission leader are the same dude, but all of the high priests are himself and the branch presidency so all he really does in that regard is tell people that they need to go to the temple and do their home teaching.
