MmmmYello... Here comes Christmas ready or not.. I cannot wiat to be seeing you all this Wednesday! Gonna be the best! I'm down to one more skype convo after this one.. Weird! Well I sure hope that you are all muy animados y que están bien felices(: I sure miss you and love you more than anything.. LAST CHRISTMAS IN THE MISH(: I WILL BE GETTIN ON AT 4 P.M. so it will be 3 P.M. there! 

This is the last week of 2013! (: Cannot believe it.. Pretty crazy how fast this year has passed us by.. This week was a very good week, I would have to say this was one of the most spiritual weeks of my mission, I received a lot of help and guidance, I know that Heavenly Father loves us, no matter what we have done. We are His Work, and His Glory, I felt of that love very strongly this past week.. I was able to go the temple and just bein there sittin in the celestial room takin all that in was just what I needed.. I felt really good.. And just grateful I was able to go.. (: The Christmas Banquet was also very good.. I included some pics--- Hahah I GOT MY PACKAGES(: I was called in front like 7 times including all the letters and shtuff hahah I felt loved but I felt bad cause there was a ton of missionaries and some only got the box from the mission haah I really do not have a clue what I did to be as blessed as I am.. I think it's honestly because that Heavenly Father knows I need the help.. I just wanna really thank you for what you have helped me become and for what I am yet to become I know I owe it all to you and your examples.. Very grateful for the love and spirirt I have felt.. I also ate a large dominoes pizza by myself in Tuxtla.. it costed 75 pesos and thats all she wrote Clark.. I need some Egg Nog(: Haha (: all in good time.
 






Well.. We let the dogs out this past week.. hahah, We are just workin hard and I am enjoying every single step of the way.. My feet are feelin these 18 monhts pretty well to haha the life of a mish! We were able to have some baptisms yesterday also.. The lord works is timefram and you just gotta learn to accept it all no matter what.. At the end of the day I know there is success when I am tired and feelin the bed callin my name,, Grateful to be here and to be helping these amazing people come unto there Savior and Friend.. 

I cant wait to be seeing you all.. (: I sure hope that you can feel the love of Christ and of his spirit.. I just want you to all know that I am truly very grateful for each and every one of you and your love(: 

SEE YOU SOON(:

I know I am here to learn personally and I feel like I have learned a bunch... Really glad to be here. We have found many people that are willing to listen to our message and so we are gonna open our minds and our hearts and do our part.. Looks like everyone has a comñeteñy different mindset here for th most part about Christmas.. Haa.. The is more remembering the virgins Mary and Guadalupe than Jesus.. But there are plenty of lights and Christmas trees-- Just different.. For me at least! But not much news or anythin excitin that happened this week.. Just lovin this time to be in ol México.. I know that this is the lords work. I'm gonna give it all I have.. 

I was able to go to the Devotional broadcasted from SLC also yesterday..  It was great to be able to learn and see the Temple all lit up and hear the music.. I really did enjoy it.. 

Well gotta get.. Sory my letters are gettin shorter and shorter I will do better and I will try harder to write you all.. Just know that I love you all.. And that I am prayin for you all daily.. You are what I'm fightin for.. !

 10 And behold, he shall be aborn of Mary, at bJerusalem which is the cland of our forefathers, she being a dvirgin, a precious and chosen vessel, who shall be overshadowed and econceive by the power of the Holy Ghost, and bring forth a son, yea, even the Son of God.
 11 And he shall go forth, suffering pains and aafflictions andbtemptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled which saith he will ctake upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people.
 12 And he will take upon him adeath, that he may bloose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to csuccorhis people according to their infirmities.
 13 Now the Spirit aknoweth all things; nevertheless the Son of God suffereth according to the bflesh that he might ctake upon him the sins of his people, that he might blot out their transgressions according to the power of his deliverance; and now behold, this is the testimony which is in me.
 Have a good week and we will talk soon!(: 

Love you and miss you.. Get it right..

Fast Week.. Turkey Day eh.. Okey(: NOVEMBER 25,2013

 
 
Hoping that this letter finds you all happier than a fat kid eating waffles with a lot of doggone syrup.. :D
Well just pretty amazin how fast this time is passin.. We are gonna be hittin the last month of 2013 here soon.. I am gonna be here in Arriaga another 6 weeks, we had transfers again.. thats crazy how fast the time went.. I can only imagine these last 5 transfers I have are gonna be the same thing I dono if I like the fact, but time ticks and there is nothin we can do about it.. Plus I will be home chillin with you all so thats fine with the Gringo..(:

This week was another great week.. We are workin and I am learnin more and more about myself with everyday that comes and goes.. It isn't easy, but just gotta "Fight that Good Fight"  I know with all my heart that I am here to become more like my Savior. And he has given me a short amount of time to feel maybe a little taste of what he felt.. I feel very humble to even be apart of it.. I know the mission is nothing to do with numbers.. It's sad to see missionaries lose sight of their whole purpose gracias to numbers.. I am here to realize my mission and to learn more about Him.. And I feel him trying to make me better.. I just am really grateful, sure miss all of you, but being away from family and loved ones makes this time of year even more special.. Sacrifice is necessary to receive the blessings from heaven, and I know we are being blessed.. Well I sure hope that all is well at home.. (: I love and miss you all more than you know.. This week will pass by fast and we will all be talkin again.. Ridge do work Ballin it up and just have fun doin it.. Time goes fast bro.. thanks again for your letter.. It was awesome to talk to you.. Lookin like a stud man.. But I'm still mas guapo.. Kort.. dude.. I love you and go head and make a doggone snowman for me.. Keep ballin on them fools to.. I love you all.. And always rememebr that.. (: Thanks for all your prayers and love, support and thoughts.. 
HAVE A SHWEET WEEK.. EAt some doggone Mashed Taters and gravy and rolls.. And pumpkin pie.. (: and everything else.. get it right..

11/11/13 People Are Crazy.. (:

 
Hey there! Hopefully this week was a good one.. and hopefully that all of you are smilin(: Let's just say that I can't believe that we are rollin through November like we are.. How was your week..? Bet it was good(: The wind is pickin up here and the temps are tolerable haha it's awesome.. But with this change all the green that there is gonna fade fast.. Just like the mission.. It seems like it is just goin by fast, I feel like I wake up and then I am hittin the bed and sayin my prayers.. It sure is cruisin!  

Well to give you a lil info of this past week I dono where to start haha.. Well we headed to the jungel again and we will be havin a baptism this weekend if all goes according to plan. My comp and I have been workin very hard and we are gettin along so thats good eh..(; It's good bein a DL but I just like the work as a missionary preparing the meetings and all that ain't my deal but gotta do it and ya gotta do it to perfection. I'm learnin so very much and glad to be here.. We meet new people everyday and sometimes, I wake up askin myself.. "who am I gonna meet today," it's pretty interesting.. This past week I saw a gringo, this dude was taller than a giraffe.. And he was with a girl and they were headed to San Cristobal. That's where all the hippies are seems like but I say it's a cool place here in Chiapas.. Anyway he was form London and his "wifey" is from Argentina.. And they were headed to argentina.. haah Pretty funny when you run into people in the places you do..  But all is well(: I have had a good week and I know that I am receiving help everyday from a strength that is beyond me.. There is also so many things around me that is just another Testimony that God loves his children no matter how wicked and absurd they may be he loves them.. I know that this work is hastening and that these are really the last days.. I know he is happy and pleased with each and every one of us.. 

I have been trying to stay 100% focused and sometimes that is hard, I read in The Book Of Mormon this week a scripture that realated exactly to my situtation.. 
20 Wherefore, ye must press forward with a asteadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of bhope, and a clove of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and dendure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eeternal life.

Well I sure hope all is well there with all of you. Soon its gonna be thanksgiving and then we are gonna be talkin through skype again for Christmas.. I will be sendin pics soon! Later today I will.. And if you could send me a email with the amount of money. 

I LOVE YOU ALL WITH ALL MY HEART.. 

Miss you.. have a good week.  

 Be safe. Be good. And Be good at it.

Last Week Of October 2013 & HAPPY HALLOWEEN‏

Hello again my beloved loved ones (; How was your week? I surely hope that you're all safe and sound and that you're all happy. The weeks just fly by and the days seem to just all run together... Can't believe it.. I am just takin in everyday tho. It's been the same ol same ol here in Arriaga, but it's been gettin windy and thats been good.. It gets a little cool with the breeze so that's always good.. It's definitely not as hot as Tonala, sometimes during the day but its all good.. I'm gonna die when I have to feel that first cold front up there.. It hits 80 degrees here and I think its cool.. Haha It will be good to feel the change of the seasons again..
 
Well another good week passed, it's the same old stuff pretty much every week and they just fly.. I am just so very grateful to be here and to be learnin and growin, and to be able to be lending a hand like our lord and savior did during his earthly ministry. It really is amazing to be here and to be learning of him and to be seeing all that I do.. I have a ton of stories that I wanna tell haha but I can't really write what I wanna say so, all they will have to wait.. I can't believe I only have 8 months left.. Even crazier to think that in 2 months we will be in 2014 haha,, Well all is well here and I am doin fine. I sure am missin all of you.. I really like a quote that I found in my journal from the MTC when the Apostle Neil Andersen came to talk to us.. In Español it's "Haga su parte es lo mejor, deje el resto al señor" I'm all about gettin weird with quotes.. In english it's "Do your part that's the best, Leave unto The Lord the rest."  I can testify to that for sure.. I know that we have a Savior and a Redeemer.. He is our Lord and our Example. I know he loves us and what is best for us.. I know that he is sure proud of our family and all that we have done together.. I am so very grateful for the blessing and privilege to live with you all and to be here representing all of you along with our Savior Jesus Christ, I feel like the person that is doing the teaching is him I am just learning and bearing testimony that he was, and he is The Christ.
 
I hope that all of you have a good week... I'm gonna send you all the pictures here soon.. There isn't a slot to send the pics.. But I will get on that I promise(:  I love you all so much.. Ridge proud of you man and congrats on playin Doggone Varsity this year mr. sophomore.. keep workin hard.. get better everyday, football season will be here again before you know it.. Now you gotta cheer for Bear River(:  Kort, I love you dude and thanks for bein a better athlete than I ever will be.. can't wait to get back and watch you own in soccer.. I will have to bring you back some soccer stuff. Just keep workin hard and have fun(:
 
HAVE A GOOD WEEK LOVE YOU ALL(:

I will finish up his training and I will be District Leader there to.. It's gonna be interesting for sure..! I am happy haha just gonna be chillin in the heat awhile longer, I guess Arriaga is the "Windy City" of Chiapas so I will feel at home (: I am stoked for the new place and the new people also.. (: Nothin will change just gonna keep on takin names and workin hard.. I was amazed when I was told today that I only have 6 transfers left. FAST! Juist lovin bein here and workin hard for the lord..

Shweet Semana(: OCTOBER 7, 2013



 





MMMMyello.. This letter best be finding you all happier than grandpa Joe just gettin way too weird cause he knows he has a golden ticket, and his sorry behind is gonna get dragged to the chocolate factory..You all better be happy and smilin! This week went by faster than I have seen in awhile to be honest.. This past week was a good one also, I know that this week is gonna cruise by to. It's the last week of the transfer so it's pretty possible that Elder Petersen is gonna be receiving a transfer, we will have to see what the Lord has in store!

Well this week was a good one, mostly because it was Conference weekend!(: I was able to watch pretty much all of the sessions and felt the spirit for sure. I felt that the trend was definitely about enduring till the end, and about how we can repent, we just need to understand the love of our Savior and His Atonement. I feel like I am closer to him than I have ever been, for sure gonna miss this aspect of the mission.. But I know that God the Father and his Son Jesus Christ love us, and will always love us, there is nothing we can do that will ever stop that eternal love.  I am loving the mission because I am helping his children and I am lovin it.. It's gonna be gone before I know it.. I really like a bunch of talks Elder Christofferson talked about moms and I also like Elder Holland's talk. "Believe in Miracles, Be Patient, don't run faster than you have strength." I also like when Thomas S. Monson told us that, "Our most significant opportunities will be found in times of greatest difficulty." Conference was sweet, and it was beautiful seeing the temple and a lil bit of UTAH(: I feel so very blessed to live where I do.. Wow. We are working hard, planning on having a baptism this Sunday to! So we will see how it all plays out. I am just enjoying this change that is occurring inside me and I am glad I am a disciple of Jesus Christ.. Thanks for all of your examples you are to me.. 
Well, just know all of you that I love you, and miss you more than you know! I know you all feel the same but times jetting on by! (: I can't believe it. I sure am proud of you all! And about all that your accomplishing! I am so grateful for all of you and all that you give me, I can feel of your love and prayers.. Hopefully you all have an awesome week.. Utes are bout to upset the Cardinal of Stanford this Saturday.. (: calling it.. Pirates and Braves are gonna advance.. Steelers are gonna win a game this year(: haha Love you all!

General Conf. Weekend‏ OCTOBER 1, 2013

 




 
Good day to you all(: I sure am sorry I wasn't able to write you yesterday. It was a day filled with taxis and busses.. But we also ate subway two times I downed two foot longs down in like 5 minutes.. I have a feeling I will bulk right back up when I get back home.. (: HOW ARE YOU? It sounds like your all doin good.. Email is bein slow.. But I got all your emails so that's good.. Hopefully this past week was a good one tho, that's all I'm sayin.. You are all my inspiration!  

This week was a good one! It went by fast.. We worked a lot this week.. I was a tired donkey after everyday.. Slept good.. It is awesome to think that honestly I only have 8 months left.. It makes me think a bunch.. I can't beleive it.. I wanna see you all so very much.. But honestly I want it to slow down a bit.. I can't fathom how fast the weeks pass by, it's just a flyin by! I was thinkin a bunch this week of what I wanna take away from the mish.. I was readin in the liahona and the book of mormon and I was reading about the "natural man" and how I wanna get better in this aspect.. I find it that its always easier to talk about things rather than do them, that is also the "natural man" I wanna get better! That's why we are here.. Anyway I just wanted to share two scriptures that I liked a bunch in The Book Of Mormon, Mosiah 3:19 that is very well known and I really liked in Alma 38
 11 See that ye are not lifted up unto pride; yea, see that ye do notaboast in your own wisdom, nor of your much strength.
 12 Use aboldness, but not overbearance; and also see that yebbridle all your passions, that ye may be filled with love; see that ye refrain from idleness.
