Hola familia y otro personas.

well everytime i start writing i cant really remember very many details from the week, it really does just get blured together. If i remember right it was a pretty good week. but i will tell you it is getting tough. man its stretching me and pulling me but i know it is changing me and i know change is a process. it will be even more of a stretch when i get to feild. which i am strating to get pretty excited for. one the main things iv learned this week from the scriptures is the worth of souls is great, the people in mexico need the truth. I know this message is the truth. there have been some ups and downs but i loved yesterday (sunday) it was such a spiritially uplifting day. we learned in our fireside how important feelings are in the conversion procces, and how the lord does his part in having them feel that it is true. dont know if that makes sense but it does to me. oh and also with the worth of souls portion of things that i mentioned, what really hit me was that i need to open up my whole heart and love my investigators with all my heart. and that is how the spirit will go from me to them, not words but my heart and feelings. 

I think it was tuesday i got your giant package!! it was the best thing ever! i especially loved the photo book, it was like gold. my roomates also loved it. especially elder bowman. him and i are becoming close. but i still think he needs to grasp a few things more ha. Life sounds like it is great there. I must say that the emails were so great this week. dad i am going to try and write you a letter today, but that didnt happen wtih michelle last week.... sorry michelle. we have like 10 million things to do and thins we should do and other things we have to do and some things we should do... its pretty crazy and overwhelming sometimes. but i am trying my best to work hard and improve, thats all i can do but it is just tough stuff, but i will say that i like being pushed, it really is making me stronger. 

I wish i could have made it to the "raise you glass party" so here is my speach. I raise my glass to jason for being the best brother anyone has had. I look up to you/ him is so many ways and especially in missionary work right now, you were a killer missionary, i hope i can be like you bro. congrates on graduating and that crazy award you got.

oh and thanks a ton for the sport updates, i think i prob lost my fantasy game but the church is true.

speaking of sports those sections in the package were the best things ever!! that package was just the best thing ever! 

Mom i want to send pictures cause i have some good ones but the photo machine here is from the 1830s, i will try again though. oh and the temple is close 3 weeks but i think i can get them done and send them back before i leave, so i dont need more fyi. I hope everyone is great. i miss you all a ton , but i am pretty focused on this really hard but awsome heavenly work. i know it is the lords work. i know it is the truth and real. Merrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy christmassssssssssss.

Out of time.

Love elder Clark
