sorry! its been awhile since ive sent one of these and this ones not going to be very long...
this last week Elder L Whitney Clayton and Elder Nelson came to El Salvador. we had the oportunity to have a missionary meeting with Elder and Hermana Clayton. it. was.awesome! we got to meet witht he two missions and i got to see Hermana Wooten and Hermana Unger...it was definately a highlight. but the meeting was awesome. i know that ive heard general authorities speak before. but i have never learned so much, or been so interested in what they have to say since the mission. really. its like my entire being hangs on every word they speak! yesterday he came again to our stake conference. and President Cordon as well. it was a spiritual feast! we had an investigator come and after the conference talked with president Cordon for about 20 minutes...we still dont know what they talked about, but we are pretty sure it helped him a lot in his progression to conversion. speaking of Jairo. i have to tell you about him. about two months ago Hermanas Meza and Dalton taught him and he was impossible, one of those people who are too intelligent for their own good who just wanted to fight about prophets. they couldnt even teach one third of a lesson. then he went to church with his aunt last sunday and everything changed. he listens to us. he wants to know. when he prays, he talks and asks God. he reads the Book of Mormon. haha. the second time we taught him he told us he wasnt able to read much...just the introduction, the testimonies of the three, the eight, and of joseph smith, and first nephi until chapter 5...we just left him the introduction to read! his questions are questions of the soul! it is one of the most amazing experiences that i have had here. we are also teaching a girl named ingrid. our bishop gave her a book of mormon a while ago and she has read it all. and prayed...and has a testimony that its true! we are working with her to get her to church...other than that. not much is going on. i love my area, panamericano, chalchuapa, and i love my companion, hermana Meza...from honduras. all is welll...god is awake. i love you
