Hey family! Happy Birthday Mom!!!!this week was pretty good. I got a new companion, they forgot to tell us we were getting changed until Monday when we were in the internet so we had to drop everything and go to the offices! My new companion is Elder Molina he has the same amount of time in the mission as I do. He's pretty quiet but its alright.  This week we worked really hard and were able to find a lot of new investigators and were able to accomplish alot! I finally took some time and went to the doctor because I lost my voice on Tuesday and Wednesday and was feeling pretty bad and so I went to some doctors office and he gave me some antibiotics and I'm feeling alot better now! I hope grandma is doing ok, tell her I said hi!! My old companion Elder Estrada is in Centro now training a new American haha.  The poor guy doesn't know any English! We are visiting a lot of families less active and this week we found a family that has a daughter that isn't baptized and we taught them and everything and when we returned the next time she told us that she prayed and received an answer that she needs to be baptized. It was a really neat experience because I was feeling pretty down because we didn't have very many investigators in the chapel in Sunday and it gave me encouragement to keep working hard and the Lord will touch the hearts of the people to accept the gospel. Anyways thanks for everything I also got your package this week cause we went to the offices is Monday! Thanks so much especially for the magazine of temples.  I'm going to give it to the family that just got baptized! and I'm not sure how it will go when I skype with you guys in May.  I'm forgetting how to speak English, I'll have to practice my English more haha anyways have a great week!

I shower in warm water now and we leave the house by 10:30, and get back at 9.  Yes I'm feeling better now, but ya please send some vitamin c and vitamins cause my immune system is weak still!

The food has been good, this week Hermana Pena cooked American food for us and it was great!  She cooked mashed potatoes and corn and chicken fried steak! I haven't eaten American food for so long it was really good!!
