Hey family,

Things have been pretty well this week. we were able to have interviews with our mission president. It was pretty great. I was also able to get a new temple recommend at the same time that expires in October. so no worries there. So this week we were able to set another baptismal date for May 26 with a really sweet investigator. He is super prepared and solid in his testimony of the restored gospel. His wife is slowly coming back to church as well and they are both excited as well. Nothing to exciting happened this week, we were out 2 days because i got food poisoning again so that was no fun. this yeah Easter was great our sacrament meeting was especially good the primary took over the meeting, it was especially good to hear from all the children in the ward and hear of their solid testimonies of the resurrected savior Jesus Christ. The spirit was really strong throughout the whole meeting and was present for us the rest of the day. We were able to attend a why i believe fireside as well last night to finish our Easter Sunday off. while there a recent convert talked about her conversion story and about all the things that went on during her conversion process. A particular story that she told was a testimony builder for me to know that Gods hand is in everything. After accepting the commitment to live the word of wisdom she was struggling with her coffee in the morning, a particular morning a shipment of real expensive coffee came in the mail and she opened and and smelled it and got ready to roast a cup, when the pot was brewing she went to get ready for the day and came back to the coffee spilled all over her kitchen. she started to examine to see what happened and realized that her coffee pot had just "Exploded" with out reason. she lives by her self as a single lady and she has lived the word of wisdom from that day. It is truly amazing to see what happens to Gods so loved children when they come in contact with the truth of the restored gospel on the earth. and how he provides a way for them to come to the fold. I am glad to hear of the great holiday back home. i love you all and hope for a great week for you all.
