Dear Mom,
Well I finally received the package you sent!! It was soo awesome to see some pictures and these amazing treats. Is the iPod in the Muddy Buddies? I gave some muddy buddies to an Elder in my Zone, Elder D´lubiano from Mexico, he was instantly addicted hahah. Latins are funny to feed American treats because they dont really make any that I know of. Well I am suprised school starts over again!! That is soo weird and only Josey is going. Hopefully Josey takes spanish seriously because I did not lol. But I can send a paragraph of spanish to her through email. Thats awesome mom that you Open your Mouth, one thing I learned when talking to people is to be excited and fun. Open the Mouth doesnt have to necessarily have to be gospel based it can just be small talk about there life and who they are as a person. Once you give a good first impression the spirit will always say something to say that relates to the gospel. My teacher in the MTC taaught me that the first 15 seconds in talking to someone can show whether the person wants to talk to you or not. The first thing is always giving a good impression with your name and asking for theirs. I have learned to have fun with it because some people are funny to talk to. Yeah its crazy that I have 6 months already!! and Steven and Jeff have a year!!! I cant believe how time flies by. I am glad you are trying though mom you are such an awesome mother. I can remember the many times I talked to you about my high school problems and such lol I would have never made it through high school with out your help.

Hey Dad I actually have not noticed that though with me saying the same things back to you lol. I guess just your advice and such helps a lot in the mission. Anyways hope you are doing fine with everything.
Well this week was normal nothing really excited. We just worked really hard on teaching some new families that we have and getting them to progress. I know Satan is trying to keep all of our investigators from coming unto Christ. I am not sure what else I can do. Maybe its a test but all I can do is be happy and smile and keep going. I would love these people to come unto Christ but as missionaries we can only invite and if they make the decision to not follow Christ then we cant do anything though. Everyday we try to find new people always have an eternal perspective. Elder Thatcher told me that to always look for new investigators to teach. Anways we didnt teach as much as I wish we could have, but it was hard. I swear we have walked to every part of our area and contacted every person. But the fact is we have to keep doing it, so when those people do need help we are ready to help. We did have a cool experience yesterday with teaching an American in English lol. His name is Michael and he is from New York. He is 17 and said he comes to Honduras once a month because his parents live down here. He is really fun to talk to and the lesson we gave was so spiritual. He leaves this friday but we invited him to pray if these things are true and he said he would do it. It was different teaching in English lol. Anyways we had some fun this week because we made pizza with a member and Orchata with another. Both those things were so good to eat lol. Well changes are this wednesday and the ZL´s told me that I have a high chance of changing to a new area. We will see what happens though. I just don´t want to leave though because I love the area that I am in. Well if I am called to a new area then its what God wants me to do. I will obey. Another than not much else to say. Hope you have a good week and are safe. I pray for you all everyday. Thank you for all that you do.
Con Amor,
Elder Hall
Josey P.S.-¿Qué tal está? Estoy muy animado para usted por que está aprendiendo español. el Español es díficil a veces pero posible por que pueda recibir el don de lenguas. En las escrituras dicen los dones del Espíritu Santo entonces en sus oraciones pidala Dios para ayudarla en español. Segun su fe el Espíritu Santo pueda ayudar con español. Un consejo para usted es hablar en español cuando tiene las oportunidades. Eso puede ayudar bastante en aprendiendo la idioma. Pues si hay preguntas digalas preguntas.
Su Hermano Siempre,
Elder Hall
