Dear Sister Hunt,
Your good son and his companion were coming out of the market in the third largest town in the country (yes much food like home). What a special person to be serving in a third world country! Lynn and Jim Avery

Moncagua



So we shop in town once a week and get to email for 30min as a new mission rule, the pictures look great. thank you so much for getting the kendoma for mikaila. The area that i live in is moncagua and is a small town but the ward is probably the best in all of El salvador small in numbers compared to the states but full of love. Yes we had a church building that we meet in but the piano sounds like there as dead cats inside is and every note is out of tune. we teach and english classes on saturday and at the same time have the scriputres playing on CD for memeber and investigators that can´t read. there is a very large number of people that can´t read here so when i have a hard time reading in spanish I don´t feel so bad. we are in a ward.I could bve here for either 6 weeks or 12 weeks just depend on the changes. also we are going to get new mission president in a few months so my relase date might be pushed forward a few weeks. not sure but what ever. I really like it here and the more that i get to know the people the more i feel that i am in just the right place. I´ll let you know when i get my first package. well low in time love you guys lots and will always pray for you elder hunt

First Week in El Salvador



so the time here is crazy it goes by so fast and so slow at the same time. But this week we traveled out to a place called platanar that is a long walk 25 min and a bus ride but we taught alot of people and i got to know my companion better as we walk we talk about life. He is really nice and has lost 42 lbs in the past 3 months here . He is from sandy and is about 6´1 has glasses i´ll add a picture.he is into nintento games and reading and movies and just being silly so we have alot in common,he has 3 months in the feild here. the ward here is probably the best in all of the zones they do so much and are amazing for how small they are. i have been cleaning our house little by little every day people here seem not eo care in the lest for cleanlyness or higen.the language is still coming very slowly but i guess all things in time. glade to hear that you and mikaila went to lunch man I love that gal. Cool that she played the piano and bummed that I missed it.probably was the best talk in the world. Thank you so much for the package and all that you do for mikaila.I know that she will do amazing things. Tell benetton his name has been in three different temples and i am so happy to hear that he is doing well. dad love you very much and your example of being a missionary. I imagen every day what you what be like here if you dicide to come visit in two years. keep up your goals and tell mom you love her every day, ashton hope you are living up life with the guys and having a great school years always pick good friends-hannah ramember to always love every one and try to do your best in gym but if its hard just have fun, mom man miss you and hope that you aredoing great thanks for all you do. this past week i have been wearing my rain in the day coat and hoody at night because is gets cold some times. reading lots in the scriptures and hope to finish all the books soon. love you guys lots until next week.

Letter from the President and Pics :)

Hello,
We are the Glaziers in San Salvador. We received Elder Hunt here. He is very well prepared and has great faith. We are grateful to serve with him here in this part of the Lord's vineyard. Thank you for preparing him so very well--he is a fine young man. I hope your family receives many blessings for the sacrifice you have made to bring the gospel to many of God’s children here on earth. I know you will see God’s hand in your life and the life of your son during his mission. One of the promises of God to his missionaries is that they will be protected and watched over.
His preparation day is every Monday. He can write and read your email on that day. He sends his love to all of you.
We love our missionaries. We love and appreciate their faithful families. We pray that, together, we will all grow in our personal conversion to the Lord. Our mission theme is: "I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, and will be until the day I die." We are working diligently to convert more than just the people of El Salvador. We so appreciate your faith and prayers on behalf of all our missionaries here.
Love,
President and Sister Glazier
San Salvador El Salvador East Mission
