hey its elder hovey!!

Good news!!! i heard we're getting a wall mart here in about a month or 2. so I'm crossing my fingers that we do cuz then i can buy all the American products i want. im nervous to find out who my next comp is gonna be. and my comp right now is going home this next Monday, he is so sad..... i feel bad for him cuz we personally didn't get any baptisms. but we do have a lot of promising investigators. that arturo guy, he is doing really well. he found a job, and we gave him a blessing on his leg and he doesn't even limp now. his leg is doing SOOOOOO much better its amazing how fast the priesthood heals people. but ya I'm doing really good. my blisters got better about a week ago, then i had blisters form in random spots that weren't there before and my feet started hurting way bad but the last few days they have been feeling way better. most of my blisters are going away and just about gone. sorry my English sucks i am forgetting how to talk in English haha. but that's a good thing. my Spanish is coming along pretty well but, i still cant freakin understand tons of what the people say here. they speak such a different form of Spanish and speak so fast its unbelievable. but arturo (my investigator) found a job, and is doing really good. he came to church this Sunday again and bore his testimony in the classes after sacrament meeting. he got up and left during sacrament cuz he said he didn't feel worthy to be there, and he knew some people that were there that also don't live the way they are supposed to, and he was mad that they were there. so we followed him out and explained that not everyone is perfect. if everyone had to be perfect to enter into the lords house.... it would be completely empty. everyone has a bad thought, or bad feelings in church, but the important thing is that as soon as those thoughts, or feelings enter our minds you kick them out and fill your head with the things worthy to be in your head. and the church is a perfect place to do that. he insisted in still going home, so we told him that there are 2 people who are fighting for him right now(god, and Satan), we asked him who he thought wanted him in church and who he thought wants him to go home. he knew the answer and decided to return and it was a whole different experience after that for him. We always need to realize that people are always watching. everyday, every hour every minute and every second there can and is most likely someone watching us, we need to be(in every moment) a disciple of Christ and an example. More importantly God is always watching. so don't forget your actions don't just always affect you, they affect the people around you too.

well whats the latest news?? are all the nephews and nieces talking yet?? we had a musical fireside last night and it was so powerful!! we had about 200 people there and wow it was amazing. i gave a talk and we had a bunch of special Musial presentations to go along with each talk and it was awesome!! well i gotta run. let me know how things are going. love you all. bye
