Well here we are another week has passed. I wont bore you with to many details because most of the details are pretty standard nothing of to great significance. I do have two stories which I will share with you later but for now know that I am well. And am alive and breathing.

But lets see what else. Oh yes as I have heard are explorers of the Motherland have returned victoriously. Which is very exciting though sad also to hear that the adventure is over. But I hope it was a excellent adventure and that plenty of pictures have beeen taken.

Wow so many awesome things have been going on. I am glad to hear that all is well with the families and that everyone is safe.

Oh these are the two stories that I want to share with you guys about whats happened with me this week.

Now because I don't like to drag on with letters with just the usual I wish to share the story of how we met the very nice lady who came with us this Sunday. This occured about 2 weeks ago the first week I started in fact. We had just finished teaching a man and were getting ready to leave when he came back out of his house and asked if we were hungry. Though we weren't very particularly hungry we said yes and entered the house. No sooner than doing so a small, old lady came telling us Elders to please sit, and how we were doing, if we would like something to drink etc. We would later find out this little old lady has a sister currently in Mexico who is a member of the church. When we mentioned temples she went crazy for a moment explaining she knew what they were and that she had seen the Mexico City temple, and that her sister had performed all the ordinances for her parents such as baptisms for the dead, and sealings. As such she was very enthusiastic about the idea of entering the temple, and she did this last Sunday.

One last funny story, but also another testament of the Lord preparing people was with a young man from Honduras. He has just recently entered the United States less than 6 months ago. He has been in contact with the missionaries off and on for some time and is interested in learning English, and a little more about the gospel. Near the end of the Restoration lesson as we were about to leave he brought up something very interesting. He said he remembered a time that he had been denied access to one of the church buildings because he wasn't a member. The way he described it confused us into thinking that it was probably a different church or perhaps the Stake building. We were not sure. Then we shared a temple invitation card with him where he exclaimed saying it had the exact same "golden guy" on the top of it. Apparently he was denied access to the Honduras Temple. Now while he was not able to come this most recent Sunday to the open house he has a desire to go if he can during the next three weeks of the open house.

Well nothing much else left to report. Only that the work keeps going forth. 

Oh I should talk about the temple visit a little. It was fantastic. Them Indianapolis temple is fairly big. The beauty is quite breathtaking. They use several of the standard pictures we see but also several new ones that are quite inspiring. It was pretty amazing to walk in, though it wasn't dedicated Heavenly Father's presence was there.

I will send pictures when I get of hold of some.

But my time is near its end so I want to close by saying I love you all, and miss you all. Siempre estan en mi oraciones. Por sin mi familia yo tengo nada.
