Mi querido Madre

My new companion is great he works hard and obeys the rules.  We get along really well!  My new companion is Elder Benitez and he is from Culiacan, a city in Sinaloa.  My week was really good!  We found 4 new investigators and they are all great.  When we found one of them it was super cool!  We were heading to lunch and we met a guy who sells natural things for your health.  It's a company like herbalife.  He stopped us in the street and asked what we study.  I laughed and told him that we don't study and that we are missionaries and we teach people.  So we talked with him a bit and he asked us to pass by his house later that day at 5 so he could listen to us.  Then he went on his way.  It was so cool and we went by later to teach him and he is golden!  He has a sincere interest and wants to know!  We've had other lessons with him and when we got there for the second lesson he was reading the Book of Mormon we had left him.  He had read the testimonies including Joseph Smiths and the introduction and the explanation!  He asked us if we could explain what he read because he didn't understand it too well.  So we did and we read a little with him and it was great!  When we did the prayer he just told us he was going to do it and we hadn't even said anything.  He also has a baptismal date!  We left him with a section of the Book of Mormon to read and later in the week he sent us a text saying that he had lost his place and he asked us for the section again!  Investigators don't normally do that.  We also put a baptismal date with another investigator and she is excited for it.  The only thing we are struggling with for now is getting people to go to church.  Leo Delgario Animus Del Angel is the name of our new investigator.  We also found 2 other investigators, a mother and a son that are ancient investigators.  We gave a blessing to the Mom of the Mother and she accepted to listen again.  We also had a great lesson with her 19 year old son and normally youth don't have too much interest in religion but we totally explained things great and he understood it all and was really interested.

 I just want to be obedient, but  sometimes I feel like I get discouraged though and like I stop trying and that is something I don't want because I know it's really bad.  The language here is pretty easy too!  despues de algo de practica se puede hacerlo en su sueno!  mire mama no manos! :D hablando espanol es facil y divertido!  y ahora puedo comunicar con la mitad del mundo!  nunca voy a dejar de hablar espanol! :D jaja y ustedes no van a tener ninguna idea de lo que estoy diciendol! :D  hahaha good luck!  Thanks for your prayers!  The investigators are great!  Love you bunches and I know Heavenly Father loves you so much too!

forever love
Cammack Elder
