¡Hola Familia!
Thanks so much for the letters and pictures Cory. I think you should get the Mexican guitar and when I get back maybe we could trade! haha Just kidding! But it sounds like everyone one is doing good except Ryan. I can`t believe that he burned a whole in Kheringtons stuffed animal! ¡Què triste! ¡Ojala què Kherington le perdona para que èl pueda tener mas felicidad! But I am sure she will. And thanks for telling my about Breman. That is really sad to hear, especially because he has less than 6 months in his mission. And could you send me Bret Tagg`s mission address too. And Tyson Smith`s address. And Ashlee`s address too. Thanks!!!!
But this week was a tougher week compared to last week. But we are still seeing miracles in our area and having `people come to church. One thing I love to see is when people come to church on their own. Yesterday there was a lady named Gabi that just showed up to church. After relief society we had a lesson with her and she accepted a baptism date for Jan 30th. It was a really good lesson and she is awesome. She really understood everything we talked about. I loved it. The only problem is that she leaves really early for work and doen`t get home till 9 or 9:30, so we are gonna see if we an get permission from President Nancollas to teach her with a member.
We also had a sad experience this week. One of the families that we have been teaching and came to church last week dropped us. It was really sad because the wife, Rosaura, really enojyed the church and what she felt and experienced. But the problem is with her husband. He is a strange man. TO explain him, he works as a clown! He is a very good actor and just would tell us what we wanted to hear. It was really sad to see this family drop us because Rosaura had such a great experience and really felt the spirit strong. But because of her husband, they dropped us for now. Hopefully in a couple months, missionaries will pass by again and the husband will have had a change of heart or a more open heart. I was reading a letter from Kevin that you sent, and here in Mexico we experience the same thing with husbands not allowing wifes meet with us. It is really sad, but for everything there is a reason.
This week I have also really seen the importance of our morning prayers. This week I have really tried to make my morning prayers more effective and meaningful. There is a quote by Pres. Hinckley in Ch4 of PMG about morning prayers and it really struck me. SO this past week I have really seen a difference in me because of the way I approach my morning prayers. I have recognized the Spirit a lot more and the promptings of the spirit and I have really seen a difference in my enthusiasm for the work. I am usually a happy guy and try to always have a smile, but through my morning prayers, I have seen, even more so, the blessings of the Lord in my life and so many more reasons to smile.
I included two pictures. One is me with a horse skull. We were cleaning a yard and found it. And the other is a sign I saw on a bus that we were on. I thought it was funny, but even more so because nobody can understand it down here. I hope you guys get a kick out of it too!
But thanks for everything!!! I really appreciate the prayers and thoughts and just everything. I hope that y`all are staying warm and that Kherington found it in her heart to forgive Ryan. I am going to mail that package tomorrow for you guys. Mom, enjoy seminary. Cory, stay classy!! And Ryan, be nice to Kherington`s toys! Love y`all!!!
Con Amor,
Elder Glover
