Corinne and David got their Letters - June 6, 2011

I'm glad the letters got there. I have really enjoyed writing to Corinne and sharing with her kids and her. That is so cool David came by and that he is going to Mexico. That will be cool with his company, I'm proud of him. I did have the interview with the President. He asked how my Spanish is coming and how things are going. I told him we are not having so much success in our area so he referred me to some things to study in "Preach My Gospel" on working with members. We are trying to do that. Next week we have an activity to help get more references, it is a fireside that me and Elder Card organized. It is a talk by one of the general authorities. Hope it works out. That's nice that you have a break. You need it. That is so cool that the pool is going to start soon. In your last letter I got I read how Scott found his ring. That is so amazing. What are the chances of that? So our trash here is bad. In the cities there is more of a trash system but in the smaller towns people just chuck it or burn it on the street. We have a guy that comes every Tuesday to pick it up, it usually is 5 quets to do it but last week they did it for free. The trash is sad cause it is so pretty here. A week and a half ago we were in the chapel before church started and we felt a small earthquake shake the building. It was crazy. And there has been a few days were the lighting has none stop lit up the sky and the thunder was so loud and non stop. I have never experienced anything like it before. We also have had a little problem with finding a mouse in our kitchen a few days. We now have to keep our bread in the fridge and our other food in a covered pot. Stupid rodents. So something really cool happened to me. I was reading Mosiah 26 and I was able to liken it to me so much. I put my name as Alma. Because the people had a lot of unbelief so he poured out his whole soul to God and God said blessed are thee for thy faith and works. And things were better. I have been having very little success in this area and this chapter was exactly what I was going through. I applied it to myself so much it was crazy. I'm not getting my hopes down though. We are working more with members and have a couple good people we are teaching so I will keep working my hardest and enjoying myself. What are the rules for the dice game Bunkle? We are also trying to plan a game night for members and investigators and I could not remember the rules. Also if you think of any other fun dice or card games. I bought a really awesome Guatemala shirt here this week that I will send you a pic of. It is rockin. Things are pretty good and I'm growing everyday. Your letters and the letters of family and friends really help. Thank you so much for all you do. I love you and hope you're doing well. Enjoy yourself and I keep praying for the weather to be good so you can start the pool. That would be so nice, I can't wait to swim again. Love you so much. Talk to you soon.
