Elder Connolly Mexico letter #15

HEY FAM!!
What's crackin'?

Ok! before that, Dad, send me a picture of you and the biggest fish you have caught, and also send a copy of that picture of me and my salmon on the Clearwater River. Thanks! I have a lot of investigators that are/were pescadores, or fisherman!  They will love them!

Ok, first things first, SIBS and MOM (and mom make sure they do it...) haha it would be realllllllly cool if ALL you guys would send me a picture of you guys at the temple on your wedding day-- like at the temple door, with the fam, or whatever.  Like Jeff,  that one of you and Nat where it looks like you jumped 8 feet high in the air due to excitement with your arms up, flexing at the camera, you know what one I'm taking about? haha.

We had a wayyy cool capacitcaion con the presidente last Friday!  I love my mission president!  He's so tight!  Just powerful-- and I learned alot: more rules... more tips with references and getting members involved, more confidence--I had to give the spiritual experience/lesson en español at the beginning!---and just alot more. And as a gift he gave us all a picture notebook that the AP's made with a picture of the temple on the front and a sealing room on the back to show the investigators and let them know that baptism isn't the end, but the end goal is to take your family to the temple. It's really cool, and you are supposed to fill it with pictures of converts you have baptized and later go to the temple with them, but I don't have any.....yet... but I do have parents and 10 bros and sis´s that have! so if you guys could send one, that´d be great, and you can't decide between 2, send both and I will pick :) gracias!!!

Well this week was good.  I had a thanksgiving dinner!!!!...NOT!! ha. but I had a lunch!... of rice and beans ;) ha. Well I didn't have a thanksgiving meal, but it was still a good week, and it was very fulllllll. I had 2 divisions, had a capaciation, lots of walkin and knockin and.... I can't remember any other big events.... but it was a good week.

1.  How many packages have you received?
Yes, I got one on monday, and the Christmas one at the capaciation on Friday—I loved them!!!!
2. Do you need anything? 
ummmmmm.... nope. maybe next week, I thought of stuff that I needed but they aren't coming to mind right now
3.  Can you send pics?
I sent a letter FINALLY last week, sorry. I am so bad at sending and writing letters by hand. My bad--. and I put like 18 pics in it from my camera for the calendar. Also you can print off the ones I sent before. My sd card has a virus from these computers, and now I can't view them... so dumb, so I am scared to put in the other sd cards and ruin more, I haven't lost them. I think I am just going to buy more SD cards from now on. I don't trust the computers here.
4. favorite story of the week DMD
Welll, there's always a bunch. but one that was cool was actually a train reaction one-- haha. So we started divisions, and I was with the ZL—he is pretty cool. and it was right after the capaciation where we are alllllll stokedddd to go out and work again cause SOMEHOW  cough ( the SPIRIT!!!!) just drives us to go baptize the world! haha but we started just talking and talking to people, and within like an hour we had 8 new investigators and citas set for the week and got a bunch of references, which led to references and mores citas tomorrow and Wednesday and it was reallly cool--- just bang bang bang.

We are going to have a greattt week this week. I can feel it. I wish I could write more, but i gotta go! Love you all. Hope all is well back at home! thanks for e´er thang!
