Hey Dad,

I am doing great... besides the ear and sinus infection. I am doing great. We have had a great week, we have had a couple new investigator's added to our teaching pool. It has been awesome, they are all super cool, and very interested we think at least. We found Megan and Clayton last Sunday. We had a very awesome lesson with them, they are from California and are doing great. They were a head quarter referral, and are super solid. Clayton is a welder and so  am able to connect super well with him.  Megan is an ex- com member and she so desires to be back into the church.  She has such a sound testimony of the Gospel and the  book of Mormon. It is truly amazing. Then we have a lady Dawn De Bow, well she is definitely different she is a wicken... I don't know if you know much about wicken but it is witch craft. She was once a christian and turned against God because most of her family had died with in a couple of months.  We were able to have a couple really spiritual lessons with her this week. We talked about the atonement  and talked about the plan of salvation. deep down she knows that is it is true, she just has so much anger and hate that she is not willing to give God a second chance. We will definitely keep working with her and helping her feel and recognize the spirit. Next we have a guy named Jerry.  Jerry is awesome, he says he is schizophrenic, but if he really is he hides it really well he is a very humble man and willing to try to find the truth an no matter what the circumstance. He had read 14 chapters out of the book of Mormon and prayed about it in a matter of 3-4 days, he is doing awesome. He is a little rough around the edges, but with a little polish he will be awesome. Brandon Brent and Earlana are all doing super great  Earlanas baptism date had to be postponed because she is still unable to quit smoking and living the word of wisdom.  She is definitely making an effort to give it up, we pray for her. Brent and Brandon, have been a different story.  We will go running with them 1 a week, and get them to open up to us, and slowly we and getting the vibe that they are not accountable.  It is kinda frustrating because at times they seem to be doing really well but at other times they don't understand anything. With time we will be able to help them. that is about all for this week. I love you Dad
