Dear Family,
The other missionary [in the picture I sent last week] is Elder Schang from Layton. He came on the
mission the same time as me, and we stayed at his house several nights when we
couldn`t get back to Kanasin in time after district meetings. The picture [of the baptism I sent last week] is of
Fernando. His last name is Tun Yah. I also sent a picture of the motorcycles
at church. On the right side is a moto taxi. I haven`t heard anything about
the couple from Kanasin. When I left the wife was going to Church, but David
hadn`t been for a while because of work. My half of Kanasin was closed for a
few weeks, but its open again. I`ll send a letter to them someday. When we got
off the bus at Cancun, we were given a sandwhich, cookies, and a juicebox. We
were given explicit instructions to not order any food while in Cancun. After
the conference, we ate Little Cesar`s before getting back on the bus.
I attached a picture of a campaign add of a guy running for Governor of
Mexico. Thousands of those stickers have been made. Its the size of the back
window of a car. It has a lot of holes poked in it so that you can see out your
mirror. Maybe you can make some of those if dad gets a lot of donations when he
runs again. I got the sticker from some members to put on the back of the
Honda. We had transfers yesterday. Elder Taylor and I are still here. One of
the missionaries from the other area [of Ticul] went to Escarcega, so we are with his
companion until tomorrow when he gets a new missionary.
Fernando is doing great. He went to church yesterday with a white shirt
and tie. We didn`t have any investigators in church yesterday, but we have some
good people that we are teaching right now. On Saturday we found an old guy
that knew the first missionaries that arrived in Ticul in the 60`s. He has some
interesting stories. He was friends with a guy that took over some of Albert
Einstein`s projects. If the couple [we are teaching] gets married this week they will be baptized,
but if not we will stop teaching them until they get married. Their names are
Jorge and Victoria.
Love,
Elder Gubler
