November 14, 2006 - Elder Campos is a great worker

Hi Mom!!how was your birthday? Im sorry that I missed it… Things have been so frustrating here… the only thing that kept me from going insane is that im near the beach… and theres a nice ocean breeze while were working.. But I hope things turned out ok!! (Even for an old futt) haha, jk.. Elder Campos is a great worker, and im so glad I don’t have to drag him around from time to time… hes great! So, the email servir was down yesterday, so im writing to you on a tuesday… its cool I have permission! And Im thinking of a way to things to you guys this week, I havent received a package yet, so you don’t have to worry about that. Im still trying to find time to write that letter for grandpa… I will have it done before wednesday, but unless time will permit, it wont have a current photo. Yeah, im budgeting my money well, its just that in between, moves and international meetings… I don’t have money until we get reembursed which could take weeks.. but im doing fine!! Cant complain about the food, although before I left los rios, theres a drink that I hate!! Its called COLADA, sounds good, its made of berries and other fruits… but its also made of Quaker OATS! And some kind of leaf. Oh, and its served really hot like soup in a cup, which doesn’t help in the already hot Babahoyo… Anyway, I want to write Gough too, is he going inactive or something? If he is just slap him in the face for me, and tell him not to be stupid. There is an attendance of 60 people maximum in my new ward, incuding the youth. We have found atleast, 2 wards of inactives in my sector, that’s why Im so frustrated, the ward needs preisthood holders, but all of them are not going to church, being lazy, and drinking…. I would like to slap them in the face, but a representative of Jesus wouldn’t. I hope all is ok, if there is some way that I can help, like if you need me to send a special letter to someone, I can do that… Love you Mom, Im sorry if my letters are too short, or too few, I would love to write more. If you can find the NEW JS movie, that would be great, but if not, its ok… that’s all that I ask, I want people to know The Prophet Joseph smith, the way that my few.. broken spanish words cant desribe..

Send everyone my love Mom!! And, take care!

Hi Dad!! Yep, this place is really great!! Theres a nice ocean breeze,
and I CAN EAT THE FISH HERE!!! That's the best part! We were just
working and verry busy, we have a really big sector, and I have really
gross blisters on my feet, actually they are blisters on blisters. But
the gough family sent me clippings of the game where brown broke your
record... sad day, but I had fun showing off to the other elders... Yeah,
they thought that it was cool. Well, there are a lot of inactive
families here, and the thing that I have found is that they slowly
slipped into inactivity because they stopped doing two very small but
very important things... read the book of mormon and pray. So, I always
end up yelling at the would be preisthood holders because they wont
understand that these things are important... some of them feel
horrible, which they should... but I would ask you to please remind the
kids to say theyre prayers every morning and evening, and that the
family would try to say a family prayer every morning.. if you already
do this, Great! Im so happy! It's the key to a happy family... I have
been in this country a little more than 6 months, and ive only seen a
few, truly happy family, I can tell certain things that the others lack.
But, Im excited that you are coming, even though I wont see you or hear
from you directly.... Well, if theres anything that you need, ill put it
on top of my list of things to do!! Thank you so much for all the things
that you do for me Dad!!!! Love you!
