Let's all write to Elder S!

First off, mom - sorry, but Elder R sent your birthday letter last Tuesday :/ Just know it`s in the mail and I still love you!! Sorry!  (from Mom - that's so funny because I actually did get a letter from Daylon just a day or two after my birthday, but it was really short and didn't say happy birthday, and I thought it was a really lame bday letter, haha!)

Second - have I already sent something home entitled "The Weeping Man"?

E´ S (my comp) is a recent convert (a year and a half ago) and he`s not planning on Skyping with anyone for Christmas. That makes me incredibly sad (his mom was assasinated when he was 4 and he doesn`t know where his dad is so he grew up with his grandparents, but even though they support his choice to go on a mission, they aren`t making it a priority to talk to him).

The Church had just bought that property before I left, so I did know something about the new building. I`m surprised it`s up and running so fast! Less than a year!  (a new ward bldg in the neighborhood)

Speaking of the Gilbert Temple Open House...I`ve heard the Mesa Temple was going to close for a bit when Gilbert opens for some gutting and heavy reconstruction. Is that true? And if so, will the Mesa Temple be up and running by the time I get home??

I`m sure that Trevin will be starting for Mtn View. And he`s going to take them to State at the end of his Senior year where I`ll be sitting with front row seats. At least, that`s what I`m planning on!

All is well here in Chile. It`s getting more difficult to find and teach people because everyone is going "home for the holidays" which, in this area, means going back to Peru or Bolivia or some other foreign country :P

Lots of Love,
- Elder Daylon Crider
Who wouldn't want to Skype with that kid?!
