How´s the family doing? I guess your all back in school huh. I know you’ll kill me for saying that but it’s true and you can’t deni it, deny it, diny it, you can’t lie about it. 

This week was really cool because we went to Casas Grandes (Big Houses) again but to listen to Elder Pieper it´s this guy.

  
It was really good and cool to see some of my old companions there too. It was a really good training meeting because he gave us some good advice for working in pueblos. He told us that we should focus on Family History and help the members and less actives with this. He also told us that when people ask us questions we should direct them to the Scriptures as the source not the missionaries

Saturday I taught English class to a bunch of kids 7-14 yrs old. It was fun but sometimes it´s hard because I saw the word but I’m so use to speaking Spanish that if I say it too much it sounds funny and I can’t say it right. It´s like when you say spoon 50 times in a row and afterwards you sound like you’re a little tipsy. 

This Sunday a couple of guys from Casas came to speak in the 1st hour. It was funny because my companion called him Wilford Woodruff because he had a huge black beard. Not quite Woodruff but close enough. It was a really good talk. Better than the normal ones because the members here usually get up and say. I haven´t prepared anything but I like this talk so I’m going to read it. But He talked about how we should wait for general conference like Christmas and prepare before so it isn´t a bother. It was a really good talk and it reminded me that we only have two chances to hear the words of the prophet.

We are doing something that is really cool which is that we write scriptures on a card and drop it off at the door of less actives and members. It´s a really good way to help them stay strong and come back to the church.

I have to go but I want to let you guys know that I love you and that you’re doing a great job. Have fun in school. Share the gospel with your friends. If they have questions send them to the missionaries. Till next time. Hasta luego.
