This week was awesome! I got my new companion/ New Trainer.
ELDER RUIZ!!!!!!!!!!!! Or Elder Roooooeeeece! He is a champ. But this week I
have really seen the phrase, "The Lord has prepared the people for me in
Mexico." Since Elder Ruiz is new to the area, I have had to show him around
everywhere which is super fun. But this week we found a few people, all with
the same story, which is amazing. They all talked with missionaries a few
months ago, but lost contact. Now to try to find happiness these past two weeks
they have all been praying to find it. Its crazy how they all have been doing
this. One of them, Rosa, said this past week she was actually praying
for the missionaries to visit her. They are all awesome, and so touched by our
message. They all accepted a baptism date too! So we have a lot of work to do,
but it is awesome how the Lord prepares people for us. Also this week the girls
in this Familia (H R) were baptized and I got to be apart of it. I'm loving
every second and always working hard.

Hola presidente:
Hoy al estudiar acerca de la fe, busqué patrones como
usted nos ha enseñado, y comprendí que la fe es el primer principio del
evangelio y que por medio de ese primer principio nosotros podremos lograr la
exaltación y la vida eterna, porque ese es el propósito de la fe en Jesucristo.
Amo estar aquí presidente y saber que Dios va a confiar a
sus hijos a nosotros, si hacemos lo que nos ha mandado.

Hola Presidente,
I want to tell you of a specific prayer. If you remember,
my first day here, I lost my backpack in the back of a taxi. I was devastated,
but I knew the Lord would provide, so I didn't worry too much. The only thing I
would really miss would be the photos of my family. So, just before going to
bed, I said a specific prayer that at exactly 9:45, just before the start of
the meeting, I would have someone who works in the mission home come and talk
to me. He would show me my photos of my family and say that the taxi driver had
brought back my backpack. Then I went to bed. The next day, when I arrived for
the transfer meeting, I placed myself right front and center of the chapel
where anyone could have seen me. Exactly at 9:45 on my watch, The miracle took
place, and now I have my stuff back. I know that Heavenly Father answers our
prayers, especially when we pray specifically.
Sinceramente,
DIVIDE AND CONQUER

District Meeting in Tulancingo
President and Elder Hernandez (new mission counselor) made it just as they were finishing the meeting. He handed out homemade treats and got a few signatures on some paper work.
Good job President- thank you for taking pictures for the blog!

District Meeting in Huachinango with Elder Jensen at the wheel!
President spent most of his time in this meeting.
We sure love our missionaries serving in the Tulancingo Zone!
"You never know who you will find on the street working!"
And what do you know... treats in Hermana Egbert's mini van to boot...
Being a medical/oncology nurse back in Utah I wore this ribbon the month of October in honor of my friends who help others fight the battle of cancer, and those who have fought the fight, those fighting the fight, and those yet to fight the fight. Thinking of all our missionaries who have lost family, or currently have family fighting this battle. Sending our love and prayers your way.....

Hola Presidente,
The work here is so great. We have so many investigators
and people that half the time I don't know who they are. That is hard and also
which road is which and where we are is hard too. My trainer is so great. He
helps me all the time in everything. I am helping him learn English and he is
helping me with Spanish. The Spanish is really coming and during lessons I know
I have the gift of tongues because I am able to say what I want to say. I also
think that the people are really starting to understand me as well. Which is a
confidence boost. Still learning Spanish, trying to learn as much as I can in
one day. With the work, we taught 40 lessons this past week. Also we have two
baptisms this Saturday and two or three in the coming weeks. I also enjoy
having the bike it helps a lot. The people here are great especially the
members. Yesterday I was able to bare my testimony in Spanish and I think it
went well. But the ward has really welcomed me into their ward. I feel the
spirit every minute of every day. It is so special to me to have the spirit
with me always. Thank you for everything you do and your love and support that
you have shown me. Me and my companion are going to continue to work hard this
coming week. I will let you know how this week goes.
Thanks for everything, Elder A

Hola presidente:
Han pasado cosas muy interesantes aquí, le cuento una de
ellas… El jueves estábamos practicando acerca de lo que íbamos a hacer con las
lecciones ese día, poco a poco el cuarto de estudios se inundó del espíritu, y
cuando eso pasó, le cedí el tiempo a mi compañero para hablar, y él empezó a
hablar español de una manera precisa y exacta, las palabras y oraciones que
usó, fueron excepcionales, no cabe duda que el don de lenguas proviene del
espíritu santo, eso es un testimonio que tengo ahora.
Hoy al estudiar acerca de la fe, busqué patrones como
usted nos ha enseñado, y comprendí que la fe es el primer principio del
evangelio y que por medio de ese primer principio nosotros podremos lograr la
exaltación y la vida eterna, porque ese es el propósito de la fe en Jesucristo.
Amo estar aquí presidente y saber que Dios va a confiar a
sus hijos a nosotros, si hacemos lo que nos ha mandado.
Hasta la próxima semana. ELDER G
