Camp Helamen!

This week was a very busy week. Camp Helamen is a week long camp for high school kids. They live the missionary life for a week and then on Wednesday we meet up with them. Each missionary went out with two high school kids. The two I got put with were very quite so I did almost all the talking which was fun. They thought it was awesome getting some doors slammed in our face. Ricardo and Winston didn't make it to church. Ricardo works every Sunday so I don't know how he will ever come unless he changes his work schedule and Winston for some reason didn't come. We had a lesson with him on Friday and Saturday and he said he would come but didn't show up. We haven't heard from him since Saturday now we are going to have to push his baptism back to the 15th. We meet a couple new people last week and have lessons with them tonight so we will see how that goes. The zone leaders are hilarious. The one I went on exchanges with was so crazy. He had so much energy and he knew his scriptures so well. It's crazy how people tell us their whole life story and about all their trials when we have only meet with them for about 10 min. Sister burton the one who always gives us cookies made us Oreo cheesecake. It was sooooo good. She is such a great cook and always gives us a bunch of desert. For the 24th we went to a party at a place called Texas old town. We had food and meet with a bunch of our members. It was pretty fun but we couldn't stay to long because we had to drive an hour back to get to one of our lessons later that night. We had to teach class again yesterday on fasting which was pretty interesting because everyone started sharing stories about fasting and the blessings that it has brought into their life's.
