¡Hola Familila!
I am glad to here that everybody arrived safe and sound for the holidays. It bet it is fun being together. Thanks for the package and all the goodies. I got it on Tuesday because my DL had to go to the offices. I also got all the Dear ELders, but don´t worry, I haven´t read them yet. I am being obedient and waiting till staurday. But I did get a letter from Aunt Fannie and Cassie. Tell them thank you. The letter from Cassie was the one she sent to the MTC.
Dad, I took 400 pesos out of the ATM for the calling card and thermals, so that is probably what the call was for. So I have the calling card. We are going to call home at 12 in Mexico time. Elder Irigoyen is going to call talk first and then me. So I will probably talk to you at 1 (or 2 your time). We get to talk for 40 mins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But what I am going to do is call you guys from a pay phone and then have you call me back in 5 mins. I am calling in the house of the familia Guzman. To call them its 001-55-26-02-58-82. LAst week i forgot a ´0´ at the beginning, but this number is correct. I checked it with hermana Guzman on Sunday. So yeah, I will probably call you around 1pm. If I need to, I will use the call card to get in contact with you, but if don´`t need to, I am going to try to return it. BUt yeah, I am excited to talk with you all!!!!
But this has been a good week for me. We had our mission festividad navideña this week and it was awesome. The stake that put it on went overboard. We had a chocolate fountain and they fed us barbacoa. It was so scrumptous. They also gave all the missionaries a stocking full of goodies and a tie. It was very special. At the activity, I played the violin. I arranged three songs together and it sounded really nice, well that´s what people told me. And then last night we had an activity with the stake and all the missionaries in our zone sang O Holy Night. An Elder accompianed them on the piano and I played the violin with them. It was nice. I am just full of gratitude for everything, especially for the opportunity to be serving the Lord. It is very different at this time of the year, but very special. I have been studying about the Savior and all that He has done for us. It is such a privelege to be able to share the gospel especially in this Christmas time. THe Lord has done so muich for us. His birth into the world, changed everything. It gave us hope, faith. He showed us the way. I have been studying alot of how we have to give ourselves to the Lord so the He can change us. He can´t change something He doesn´t have. During this Christmas time, I am thankful that I get to be a representative of JEsus Christ. I am thankful for the chance that I have to give myself to Him. Of all the gifts we can give, the one that we give to our Savior is the most important. And of all the things that we can give, the two things that he doesn´t have are our hearts and minds. We are the most precious gift. The Savior wants us.
I hope that you guys enjoy this week together. Thanks for all that you guys do. For the prayers, love, support, letters, you name it. Thanks so much. I can´t wait to talk to you all this Saturday. I can´t believe that it is already Christmas. I love yall. Enjoy the Christmas spirit and take time to remember the Savior.
Con Muchisimo Amor,
Elder Glover
