Campos - Week Ten


Well, this week was pretty hectic. So, we didn't have any baptisms this week, but we remarked for the 8th. Cristiani was still using drugs and stuff but we're helping her a lot and I'm pretty confident that she'll be ready on the 8th. Chayene is excited and wants to start going to Seminary with one of the young women we brought to her house. Awesome. So everything is going along there. 

My new comanion is pretty cool, but he says stuff like, "There are two types of rules ... " Basically he thinks some of the rules are silly, which I don't like, because obedience and diligence are two of the most important principles on the mission. But, we're working well together. 

We are teaching a 78 year old man named Gervasio, who likes to read so we gave him a Book of Mormon. He says that he reads it all the time, and we even saw him sitting outside with the book in his hands, but I'm not sure how much desire he really has. We'll see. 

We also started teaching a woman named Genilsa, who has potential. We just need to go back and see if she is keeping commitments. 

I'm a little stressed here in Campos. Some times I feel like I'm the only one here working hard to find, teach, and baptise people here, but also we don't have much support from the members so we're doing everything alone. But i'ts part of the work.  I know that if I do the best that I can, the Lord will bless me. If I keep doing what I know is right, I know that eventually, I will find success. 

Oh and here in Campos, I'm pretty sure seasons don't exist. If i'ts winter here right now, it feels a lot like summer. 

Well, I love you all, thanks for all the support. I'm trying my best to be a good missionary. Thanks for everything mom and dad. Looks like everything is going great there.

And it would be cool to get letters from people...haha.

Alright thanks for everything.
