Hellooo Family! I am so glad you finally got my e-mail even if it was late! My e-mail is late this week too, because yesterday was Memorial Day and the library wasn't open. But happy belated Memorial Day to you, too! Thank you so much for sending that birthday package! That was so thoughtful of you and a PERFECT gift for a missionary. I have been proudly showing everyone my new (much easier to fit in my bag) Preach My Gospel manual and I even used it Saturday right when I got it to teach a lesson. On Saturday I received that package and two other pieces of mail (Your awesome letter, Remi, and a beautiful postcard from Yosemite. :). It was a jackpot mail day!
Our investigators are doing well and until this morning we were on track to accomplishing our goal of 6 baptisms this month. But now it looks like we will have five baptisms because Melissa T. called us this morning and told us that she would no longer be meeting with us. I talked to her and encouraged her and tried to remind her of the spirit she had felt at church and while taking the lessons but she seemed to have already made up her mind. : ( But I will continue praying for her and I know eventually she will find her way back to the missionaries and the church. We are still on track with the other two baptisms this weekend (Djuna K. and Trinidad R.) and I will let you know how they go next week and send pictures of course. I have a LOT of things to send you in a package but I am waiting until you move so I can send them to your new address and that way it won't get lost in the process of your moving.This past week we got SOAKED!! We were on bikes and foot all week and on four occasions we were caught out in the thunder storms when not even an umbrella can stop that down pour! It was a lot of fun, though. I enjoy seeing some real rain storms. After the storm on Sunday there was a beautiful sky and rainbow! I took pictures that I will send to you.I love you all and want you to know that I am working hard and trying to do the Lord's work and give it my best. I will pray for you every day so that the move will go smoothly and I know that Heavenly Father has a special plan for our family moving you to Florida. Stay strong and be safe! I love you!Love, your son and brother,Elder Miller (#2)

For Christmas if you'd like Elder Miller's direct address just call or e-mail me! RoniSMiller@yahoo.com
As per Elder Ryan's request I've removed his e-mail address. His Mission President requests that only immediate family members e-mail Ryan. But DearElder is just as easy as sending an e-mail! Many thanks to everyone who writes to our missionary! DearElder.com is really convenient and easy. DearElder is like us sending an e-mail, but DearElder gets it, prints it out, puts it in an envelope and actually mails it (the hard part!) so he gets a "letter." Easy for us. Fun for him. It does cost the amount of a stamp (42 cents) so you have to put some money in your DearElder account . . .
