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..!

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 not^aboast in your own wisdom, nor of your much strength.

 12 Use ^aboldness, but not overbearance; and also see that ye^bbridle all your passions, that ye may be filled with love; see that ye refrain from idleness.

I just wanna tell you thanks for your amazing examples, You have done everything for me in this life. I love you all and grateful that I have all of you.. 

Well I am stoked for Conference I think cause I will be able to watch T.V. hah just kiddin..(: I really like watchin it here in the mission.. I will hopefully carry this with me after the mission(: It is crazy to think that I will only have one more conference in the mission in April, and in april I will have 1 month left in this mission.. It is sure gonna fly these next 8 months, mark my words.. I am gonna leave nothin to even question! 

 

Well I was wonderin to, I have seen Fetch in the pics.. hahah did Sissy die?:( Just kiddin don't tell me I don't wanna be depressed.. Hahah.. I guess thats all for this week. Hopefully you are all doin great and smilin like elephants in a swimming pool.. (: Yessir... Well, I can't believe it's October.. Flyin.. HAVE A GOOD WEEK, I love you all, and I would be nothin without you.. Be safe.

CON TODO MI CORAZON
