Hey Family,
This week has been great. Monday we hung out and played games, then we went to the Rain's for dinner and went to the Orey's after. It was lots of fun. On Wednesday we had specialized training. It was about being diligent. I really enjoyed learning that when we are diligent we will complete the task no matter what. Some good advice from Yoda: "do or do not there is no try". If we are diligent we will do or do not. After we got back to West Memphis we went to see Delores and talked with her for a little. We set up a return appointment then went to the Barnum's for dinner. The Barnum's are super cool family that is from Idaho. They moved down here for a job. He flies helicopters. They are moving today to Vegas for a new job and will be missed in the branch. On Thursday we went to see Noland. We met him at the church and talked about how he has been. We haven't seen him in a while because he went to Chicago to visit family. We talked and explained that he can get baptized whenever he wants to. He really has his mind set on getting baptized in June when his family is in town. We went ahead and set his baptism date for June 7. I am excited and hope to be here for it but I have been in West Memphis for a while. On Friday we went to go and see Delores and taught her the gospel of Jesus Christ. She seemed excited and said she would try to make it to church again. On Saturday we went to the church in the morning for an Easter social. We had breakfast and then there was a Easter egg hunt for the kids. We talked with a lot of less actives and non members that came. We also helped hide some of the eggs. It was fun. After the Easter thing, the Anderson's invited us over to help do yard work and for lunch. We went and helped them clean up their yard and plant some flowers and weed. Then we played some soccer and had brownies. We then went and got cleaned up and had dinner. After dinner we went to see a less active named Greg. He is really cool and funny. On Sunday we had some good talks about the atonement. Then in gospel principles we watched the "Lamb of God" it is a really cool Easter movie. After church we went to the Barnum's to say bye and take pics.

Then we went to the Anderson's for dinner. It was really good. They are super cool and their family reminds me of home and how crazy of a family we are.
That's it for my week. It sounds like y'all had a great week. Thanks for all you do for me. Y'all are always in my prayers.
