Hola mi familia.
Como estan? Estoy bien. I have been delayed until the 12th and then, The Mission Committee will see if it's safe for us to go down to Mexico, if not then they might send us somewhere else until it is safe to go.
O-well, what can I do but learn how to teach better and practice my language a little more.
Nothing has really happened this week, it's just been normal except that no one shakes hands anymore until we are told we can again.
I'm being released as the zone leader, because we were supposed to leave on Monday.
I still haven't received a letter from Logan with everyones addresses in it. Can you have him read Alma 60:6, and then tell him I'm joking.
I received a letter from President Hansen telling me that he has already chosen my trainer, who happens to be a native.
I got another hair cut today it looks pretty good for Mom not being the one who did it.
Since I have time I am writing Lauren another letter, so if I don't get a reply before I leave then I won't worry about it.
Have you heard anything from Jeff's parents? He left I think it was three weeks ago, and I haven't heard anything from him, of course the mail is slow when coming from Mexico, takes about a month to get anything.
Any word about Austin, I wrote him and haven't received a letter back yet...
I will talk to you more in my weekly letters.
Love you all and will keep you in my prayers.
Sincerely Elder Jordan Ross Weaver
Note from Mom... I was sending Jordan a DearElder today and got a knock at the door-it was a package with the stuff he sent home. His backpack, I-pod, white hanky from the Temple dedication, 3 t-shirts, one for each of the brothers, (I will post their pictures in their shirts, they make me cry) and A LOT of the letters from family, DearElders, letters from friends and neighbors-I am overwhelmed at the love and support he is getting! Thank you so much for keeping him in mind and sending him good thoughts and words of encouragement, it means a lot that so many people love him.
We know that wherever he ends up during the next couple of weeks it will be for a good reason. We have no doubt that our Father in Heaven is watching over each and every missionary that is serving. We are anxious for him to get to Mexico, he is just as anxious, and hopes that it is sooner than later.
Thanks again for all of your love and prayers, Tam and Ross

Sister Weaver,
ReplyDeleteI don't usually read our missionary's blogs, but stumbled across this one while looking for something else. We are so excited for Elder Weaver to get here! Just so you know, our mission has never been healthier. Just a couple of not very nice rashes. Hopefully this flu scare is abating and the church will allow them to travel. We are fasting and praying today that that will happen soon. We need our missionaries! If you have time to send back his backpack, it would be a good idea. We aren't sure where the one strap backpack instruction is coming from,probably the MTC, but the regular backpacks are great for travel and for overnight exchanges. If it isn't possible, he can buy another one here. We also sell the one straps in the office. Feel free to email me with any questions at the mission office 2018802@ldschurch.org I'll even respond!
Con amor,
Hermana Hansen
