It was a good week. well we took so hits in our area pretty tough. devani doesn't really want to listen to us anymore and her sister Christi the less active didn't go to church yesterday isn't too excited to go back, but its alright i guess we are going to keep working on them and keep inviting. also we couldn't find marivel, when i got to her house in mother in law answers the door and always says shes not home but we think she really is, shes the meanest old lady iv meet. elder cayetano and i have decided we are going to keep stopping by everyday until marvel answers or her mother in law tells us to never come back because we have stooped by so much.

but of course there were lots of good things that happened this week. Gaby who has been going to church is progressing a ton and has a baptism date for the 26th. tomorrow sister puente is going to go and talk to her dad i think he is going to let her, i am praying so. 

okay so this has been freezing cold. i think i my body must have gotten used to the heat because the cold is killing me. ha but i got no room to talk from what dad told me. less than 10 degres, thats just insane. here it dropped bellow 38 degrees and were all dying. and also because nothing here is built for the cold, the houses catch the cold air and become freezers, i am not kidding, when your in a house you can see your breath but outside you cant and it feels better. elder cayetano and i think we see peguines and polar bears at night. fun stuff. 

okay new years was crazy. us 6 ( assistants and secretary's) eat a huge dinner that some members brought for us and then we laid  in our beds until midnight and heard the fireworks. you would not believe it, it sounded like world war 1 and 2 put together, it blew my mind! 35 minutes strait of boom. 

mom i liked when you talked about prayer in your email. on Tuesday night i said a prayer and had an amazing experience. i know that heavenly father hears all of our prayers and is there and that if we ask sincerely he will help help us with anything. 

i am becoming more humble and learning what it means to receive the lords strength. 

thank aunt cindy and dee for the cd and notebook again for me. 

okay well I'm back writing again. sorry this is kinda of a short letter. you try writing an email with 100 missionary's calling you to how much they have on there credit card, 

i pray for everyone everyday mom thanks for your really uplifting letter about your blessings. 

I'm really excited for michelle tomorrow, have an amazing week to everyone. 

i know that heavenly father is our father and loves us and that his commandments are our way to complete our purpose on earth and to show our love for him. i know that the Gospel is everything.

tons of Love

Elder Clark
