This week was an amazing week for us in Cleveland. We found some really awesome people to start teaching and then there is our investigator Brother Mike O'bryon. He is super awesome and came to church this week and loved it a lot. He is the one who lives with his mother who has MS and is single. He lives pretty close to the church so that is good too. We have been taking Brother Santiago with us to see him, he is and older retired member who has nothing to do but read his scriptures, say his prayers, eat dinner and do missionary or service work. He is also taking us to the temple next week so it will be a quick email, but I should get one in. We have also been trying to keep in contact with our other investigators and help them read and pray about the Book of Mormon so they can progress to the next step. We also went on exchanges 2 times since Wednesday so that was fun too. 

Something I have been learning a lot is just how to better fulfill my responsibilities and a lot of that comes down to caring more about people ( especially the other missionaries) and trying to motivate and inspire them more. Usually the funny things are just jokes or comments, just trying to have a wonderful time. We helped a member move out on Saturday and it was a really quick move but the Elders Quorum President, Brother Falahola, was just being fun and saying funny things. 

The Wynders were the Kirtland Site Directors, so they would come to our meetings sometimes and they were pretty involved. They are super awesome too. The new site directors are from St. George/Pine Valley, they are Elder and Sister Jennings. The weather really has been pretty good. It snowed Thursday night and then it was about 80 on Monday so all over the place, but it has been good. 

It sounds as things are going well back their and I hope it continues to be like that. We are doing good here, getting lots of biking and talking to people in.  I hope you all have a super awesome week.  Happy Easter to everyone and keep up the good work.

Love Elder Koden Hunt
