| ELDER HILL STANDING IN GIANT RAIN PUDDLE |
We´re officially in the rainy season
here in the State of Mexico. This time last year I was in Tezontepec and
it didn´t really rain there, but it pours pretty much every night. At home we
say, "It´s raining cats and dogs!" but here we say, "The heavens
are falling!" One afternoon everything flooded in our colony and there
were public works trucks and firefighters out trying to unplug the drains and
everything. The next day it was all gone.
Alejandro is a 23 year old 'kid' we
found this week thanks to a referral from Raul. He´s been pretty mixed up in
drugs and not so great of friends but he wants to change his life around and be
better. When we first showed up to Raul´s house we had planned on teaching the
Plan of Salvation to Carina. He said to us 'hold on, I invited a friend.' We were
surprised, and then entered Alejandro. We decided to just go along with the
lesson how we had planned. Interesting to note that the very questions that
Alejandro had were the questions that this subject answers. We had a great
lesson and he accepted the invitation to be baptized. To be continued....
Raul and Lorena Guzman will be sealed this
Friday! It´s super exciting to see hear that, and I´ll let you know how it goes
next week. My how time flies. Speaking of flying, here´s a neat little story
for you....

There was a group of turkeys that
wanted desperately to learn how to fly. As they watched the sky,
they saw other birds soaring on the winds, and were envious.
"We're birds, too," they
said, "There’s no reason we shouldn't fly." So, they asked
the mightiest bird in the sky, the eagle, if he would teach them how to fly. He
agreed, and invited them over to his home the following afternoon.
The eagle was a great teacher, and the
turkeys were quick, enthusiastic learners. Before long they were lifting
off and landing, and by the end of the day everyone was able to fly and soar on
the wind. They thanked the eagle, clapping him on the back and
expressing their gratitude. Some even hugged him.
Then they all went home, just the way
they had come…..walking.

Let´s change what we need to change.
We all have a great potential, being sons and daughters of God. Sometimes we
experience great feelings and we learn great things, but until we apply them we
will just keep walking along the same path.
Love you all!

Hey there,
Thanks for what you could send. It will be fine. I´m not sure
what suits Dove is talking about.
He´s in a different area. I´m giving away my
black pinstriped suit to a kid who´s going on a mission in a few weeks but his
room caught on fire last week and pretty much all his stuff was burned to
charcoal. I´m sure you´ll understand. :) We´re going over today to help them
paint the house.
I gotta go. Love you. Tell the family hello.
Elder Hill
(MA)Find out
how much a NEW nice suit is. Ask Dove or ask around. Says they are cheap, he
and Hyde or Holmes both got one, ask them. I totally understand and will
replace! LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK!!
