hello so i guess i will start off this week. by saying its freaking crazy! the weather here. so on friday it was 90 and sunny and really hot and humid but now its like 20 and there is snow on the ground. so we took pictures in the sun and snow its funny. so on monday we just played monopoly. it was really fun. at first i was losing hard core but then i ended up winning in the end by making some smart trades. then we had a lesson with a Jehovah witness. he basically said he didnt want to learn any more because were not going
to change him and he isn't going to change us. but he gave us a bible study guide for jdubs. and its got all kind of funny pictures in it about what the end of the world is going to look like. then we taught a lesson in spanish again. i still cant understand much but i try my very best. i can pray and bear my testimony in spanish and i understand when elder pugmire is teaching because of the key words that i do understand. the family that we taught is really solid they love the gospel and they know that what were teaching is true. they said that everytime we come in they feel the spirit with us. its really cool. so we found out that lady that was going to get baptized her name is machel charles. her husband showed her a bunch of anti Mormon films about the temple and stuff. so she is going through a hard time. and she wont let us talk to her. so were just going to give her some space and talk to her in about a month. we had alot of people come out with us this week but most of the lessons have been falling through. i dont know what the problem is. but all of these people were solid, but now there just being really flaky all of the time. we cant seem to get into contact with any of them. but this week has still been good you just have to count your many blessings. we still have people to teach we get feed four or five times a week by members. members are willing to teach with us. we still have a bike and a house that works. (except for the rats) i have a great companion. and the sun shines most everyday. one of the ward members gave a talk on missionary work. and how we can become more Christian Christians. one of the things he said was all the devil has to do to win is make sure that we don't do anything. we don't really have to be doing stuff wrong but if were not doing stuff right its the same thing. we need to be constantly moving forward. if we stopped were actually digressing. and not progressing. this life is about progression and changing for the better. and if we think were done or were satisfied with ourselves satan is wining. is all about enduring to the end.not stop ing but keep moving forward. keep doing good back home and keep moving forward. keep going to the temple. i received some cool insight on something. when Jesus came to the americas he came to the temple. and only the people that were at the temple go to see him. and all of the other people missed it. until the next day. so we need to be at the temple all that we can. because that is the lords house and if the lord is going to come home, where is he going to be? you guys are great. sorry for the short email but i love you so much and your the best family a missionary could ever ask for. love Elder Clements
