A Sick Comp

10 September 2012

Hey Family!
     How is everyone?    All is well here.   I am still in Jayanca.   The work here this week has been really, really slow.   We have been in Chiclayo almost all week.   We have only been in Jayanca 3 days this week -  3 half days in between appointments at the clinic for my compaƱion.   This next week also looks like it might be like that too.    The work went downhill obviously as a result of the clinic.   We have 3 or 4 eternal investigators who progress very, very slowly, but whom are progressing.   We could leave them for a year and they would still be there, but most of our other investigators disappeared.   We have a lot of adventists and JW´s here that tell everyone they meet that we have horns and worship satan,  so usually if we can´t follow up with our investigators they get scared to talk to us.   So, its been tough.   But, we have several good references and a few good people we found on Sunday whom we are going to keep working with  but this next week looks like we are going to clean our area book again.    Still, the work goes on.
     Haha, it sounds like the family reunion was a success.   Sounds like everyone had fun.   Mention to my brothers that Preston seems to get lucky a lot when he plays with them...
     And with that other girl... Estrellita, I am not entirely sure who she is.   I think she is one of the sisters from the branch here.  Most of the members here have years in the church.  The missionaries have been in Jayanca for a short while, but the group was formed 15 years ago.   They still call it the family group.  I think I know who sheis and if you want you can add her or if not, that's OK, too.   She should know we (the missionaries) don´t use facebook so... but if you do add her just be sure to tell her your my family and not me.
      I have not gotten any of the last 2 packeges yet with the 4 shirts or the one before. My comp and I are planning to stop by the office today and see if we can find them.
     Well not much new this week. I have been kinda bored this week.    Not much has happened,  but I will keep you all posted on things as they happen.    I love you all and I hope everyone has a good week this week.   Give my love to everyone at home.    I will write again next week.
