Hello Family,

I enjoy giving a very basic overview of what happened to me in the past week, because then I don't have to type it multiple times and generally the things that happen to me aren't that interesting anyway. As for this last week, the best thing that happened was our new investigator Michael. He is a recovering alcoholic and drug addict. He initially didn't want us to come and set up a fake appointment, but he apologized afterwards and has been doing great. He reads the Book of Mormon and prays like 3 times a day. It's great!

Alex's baptism should be this week. Unfortunately he hasn't had his baptismal interview yet because our District forgot about it and didn't show up, so we don't know if he is completely ready yet, but he should be fine. We have also been going out in just our white shirts recently and it's been fantastic. The weather has been gorgeous the past couple of days. There were some moments where I felt like I was in California because of how it felt and because we were right next to the coast.

Well I love you all and thank you for the emails. The pictures I'm sending are the birthday card that my companion made for me (he is an amazing artist) and the fantastically large pasta meal I made before starting my fast.
