Memories of Joseph, Honduras Soccer, & Bonus Pics!!!


This week's email came with a couple of bonus pictures.  I love when he sends these.  The first one is a picture of the flowers they took to a sister that feeds them.  So glad he has such a compassionate side and is so thoughtful.  He tells of his Sunday School class discussing the story of Joseph and his brothers selling him into Egypt.  We took Bridger to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat when he had his perfect birthday, turning 7 on the 7th of February many years ago.  He loved that play and would sing all the songs with Stetson over and over again.  It's fun to see that as they are discussing it all he could think of was Donny Osmond being Joseph.  Totally worth the expensive tickets we bought to have many years later this memory come to him.  

Thank you again for following his journey...



The baptism that he talks about in his email.


Alright What up FAMILY i hope you had a great week I'm so glad that Caleb shot his deer hes the MAN what a great shot right Caleb i love you bro i cant wait to go hunting with you you know what we should do is freaking put in for a bear tag in the spring and go bear hunting!!!!

But its all good i love it! i love helping out the other missionaries they're all cool we are in a little trouble with baptisms in the zone this month but this week we should end OK i hope so anyways this weekend we had an awesome Baptism with Cesar Luis and Enrico so cool both 18 years old friends and brothers of members both shared their testimonies after the baptism and both said we did the right thing now we have to keep going and in one year serve missions!!!!!

Ok La Selecion that is the national soccer team of Honduras and in the past 2 months they have been playing to move on to round 2 for the qualifiers of the World Cup so on Tuesday they had to play Canada here in SPS LIKE 5 mins from where i live the announcement was made and guess what they freaking made Tuesday a national Holiday!!! hahah so from 2-4 everything and i mean everything was closed well not closed because you could just walk in anywhere and everyone was watching the game but ya closed man they love their soccer it was so crazy so nuts because well the outcome of the game was something like 8-1 HONDURAS SPANKED Canada and that's when it just went NUTS we have parades in the street we have fireworks going off blue and white everywhere people screaming the natl anthem....I LOVE HONDURAS hahah so awesome it was nuts like i actually got scared because they get so crazy down here for there soccer but haha oh well the next game they will play will be February 5th haha everyone already knows and everyone is stoked!!!

OH now we will just go to the headache of my days REGISTRO man just imagine having to go to the DMV every stinking day and trying to fix problems that arent even youre...welcome to my life ah its crazy but we are still working with that so ya anyways i love registro but and the same time i freaking hate it but its all good.

So ya pretty much that was my week family ortega is bomb and will be baptized this week so that should be awesome i love you guys so much thanks for everything you do for me all the support and love i love you guys prayers are heard and answered i know that is true as long as we are worthy to receive the blessings we will receive them i also one thing i loved is our elders quorom pres broke down the story of Joseph in Egypt all i could think about was flippin Donny Osmond but hey that's alright isn't it anyways how Joseph was all good then his brothers sell him that sucks he goes to potifer and potifers wife just screws him over cause Joseph was awesome and ran away then they throw him into prison when hes in prison he still and always is OBEDIENT!!! and in a couple weeks or so he is NUMBER 1 in prison then what happens hes always obedient and becomes the Pharaohs Assistant so as we can see even being obedient has its down days but then always in the end after going till the end you will be blessed and that is the truth.

I Love you Guys so much LOVE YOU

Love Elder Bridger Clayton
