This week has been good. It’s nice to have been part of the Easter initiative so far. We’ve been able to share the video with several people this week. The DVDs I made turned out quite nicely. I’m a little upset that I got a call from the assistants this past week saying that my emailing privileges were in jeopardy because I was on the computer too long making the DVDs but I’m sure it will be all right. I was doing missionary work. If I am on for “too long” in the future then I’ll send emails from my home email address.

The past week I’ve lost another 3 pounds bringing me down to 251 pounds. My diet is going well and this past week we’ve begun run every morning as the four of us in our apartment. That has helped tremendously.

We picked up a new investigator this week named Albert. He seems to be really interested in the gospel. He is a machinist who just left his job and bought a CNC machine for his house so this week we also helped him move that into his house, which took almost all of knockout. I know President would not be happy with us doing that, but the spirit confirmed to me that helping him was worth more than increasing our numbers of conversations.

This week we helped out our bishop by pulling weeds out of his back yard. It was quite the chore as he had a lot of vines mingled into it all. We also went down to Operation Gratitude for their care package assembly day, which is always a lot of fun.

Happy early Easter!
