¡Fuimos a un castillo hoy!


 
     Well to begin Mabel has dropped us and we have not seen her in 3 weeks. But this is a work of happiness so I'm going to say we have two people on baptismal date! Sindi y Jose have been taught since January of this year. And through them we have a new investigator who is thinking of baptism already. 😀
      Now my Spanish is improving so much that I honestly don't think when talking in Spanish. But still don't know every word or every grammar corrections. When learning a new language it's like learning everything over again. And the last two weeks I've read the Book of Mormon in Spanish. The best decision I've made in my life. I honestly believe I have a testimony of Book of Mormon in Spanish more than in English. I've made the goal to read the New Testament in the next three months. And keep reading the Book of Mormon of course. I invite you all to read this book. It is the most correct and wholesome book.  I know this because it is a gift from God for us.

 
I love you guys.

The Plan of Salvation


A Work of Happiness


Hermana Shaw, Hermana Clements, Yo, Elder Erickson
De Gilbert, Arizona De Bountiful, Utah mi casa, De Logan, Utah.
First off I just received an early Christmas gift from one of the missionaries; a bloody nose. That's alright, he gave me a hug afterwards so we are good. But other than that the week was awesome. Not much happened this week other than we had so many meetings. But the moral of this week is definitely 70x7. My companion and I had so many appointments set up it was insane. But almost next to know one could come and Mabel is having a hard time now. She had a baptismal fecha (we need to change it) and she has failed three times to meet with us. But we still fogive all of them. 

     But this is a work of happiness. The lord is still blessing us. We met an awesome family from Ukraine that are moving into the ward. They speak English and have two children. We'll be teaching them Spanish and they're so fun. Probably the some of nicest people I've met here. We have been working with less actives this week and one family wants to come back. It's not a baptism but every soul is great in the sight of God. 

Con Amor,

La historia de un misionero en España.

Elder Erickson y yo
Well this week was interesting with having someone know less Spanish than me but we survived. Except the first day my new  companion was in the field, someone tried to pick-pocket him! Instead of glaring at them, I told them that we were missionaries and wanted to share a message with them. We actually received their number and they looked dumbstruck at just what happened. My companion asked me how was it possible for me to that. I asked him, "Are they worth something to you?" 
I never thought that myself until that happened. I tell you that the hardest commandment to keep is the second greatest commandment which is to love your neighbor like yourself. I can tell you that it is even a sin to think wrong about someone.
 
"And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them." (Ether 12:27) 
The only way to have love for others is to pray and be humble before God. That is the only way we can keep this commandment and I bear the truth that this is one of the most important commandment we have. And I know blessings will come to those who keep. I exhort you all to pray that you can have love for every person you see. Even those who do not love you. 
Love you all, 
Elder Broadbent. 
 
 

It was a good day! we received an email, and pictures and videos!

¡Estoy muy feliz!

   Mis queridos amigos y hermanos. Estoy muy agrecidos para estar aquí en este mundo. Before my mission I thought I had a huge heart for people. But now I realize that I honestly didn't. Not enough for what is needed for this great work. I'm truly grateful to still be here, on a mission, for those who are in darkness. I never thought I'd be this happy during my mission but I'm happier than I was back home. My Spanish is alright but definitely needs improving. Planning the days have improved but always more room for improvement. Some things I noticed during the last few weeks is that the Lord does not allow us to rest for too long. He always wants us to progress and he never puts a limit on any attribute or ability. He does that because our mission here is to become like him and God has no limits. For that he pushes us to do more and more; he is our Father. And he wants to give the inheritance that he has bestowed upon us before this life. We must follow what he commands of us so we can receive our mansions in the heavens.
    This upcoming transfer will be interesting because I´m am now a trainer and it will be for only four weeks. ¡Estoy muy feliz! I definitely do not consider myself even worthy to train but I think heavenly father knows I can do it. I want to tell you all that I love you guys. And I love being here.

I am Eating!


Sorry I'm so bad at this. It's something I need to improve.  Sorry this will be a little short. Pdays are the fastest days for me.  This week was great in both growth and events. My Spanish has improved so much that I can actually keep a conversation.
Here are some videos so you can see that I am alive and well.
Love you all,

This will be very short.

This has been a hectic day because of Festivos. Would you believe that there is an actually day every week with the reason that people just don´t want to work. We have to buy everything during the week now. :( But I still love being here and doing the lords work.

We have a large group of people feed us miembros y investigadores. But If not I do most of the cooking and Elder Nash is grateful for that. I´ll send pics of things I make from scratch.

Love you guys

Las Buenas Cosas Vendrán






¡Correr de Toros!
The bull fights came and I have no actual pictures of the bulls. I have videos but the videos are too big to send. Sorry. Other than that I am staying in Guadalajara, España (not the city in Mexico that everyone says). Not going to lie this has been a rough area for me. I talk to angry Spanish people all day but it takes a lot to scare me off. I love them so much that I talk to every person I see. Literally, every person I see. I´ve been smacked by people because they thought I was annoying. (I´m not annoying, I´m persistent.) But the Lord always makes a way for us to feel peace and joy. A quote that comes to my head all the time, tells us what the exact definition of peace is. “Peace is not silence and no worries, but in the midst of devastation and the unknown, you still find peace”.

I love the address that the prophet Thomas S. Monson gave in the conference during Sunday morning. About being an example and a light. First, be an example in your conversations. Use words that are of love to others and have love to those who struggle with it. Be an example of the savior´s charity to others. When you give a service to another person, you will receive seven-fold of what you have given. Be an example of a good spirit. To me that means we strive to have in our lives kindness, gratitude, forgiveness, and goodwill. Be an example of faith. “In order to gain and to keep the faith we need, it is essential that we read and study and ponder the scriptures. Communication with our Heavenly Father through prayer is vital.”

Be an example of purity. “We need to be clean in body, mind, and spirit to be worthy to have the Holy Ghost. “Purity will bring us peace of mind and will qualify us to receive the Savior’s promises.”

When we live to be the best possible example we can be, Las buenas cosas vendrán. (Good things will come)

I love you all and you all are in my prayers. Remember that when we are a light to world, blessings will come.

Love, Elder Trevor Broadbent

P.S. my favorite hobby is cooking now. Elder Nash is happy for that. And I am truly grateful to be here in Guadalajara on a mission for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Scriptures

Short message this week. The scriptures are one of the best tools against the adversary. I learned that this week during one of our morning studies. The scriptures teach us of people who are much older than ourselves. But their stories are just as powerful now as they were then.

See Mom, I am eating!


Bulls and Parties!


We survived the bulls and the parties! Some the parties stayed up till 5 o'clock in the morning. Where we live right outside of one of them, they were so loud they woke us up in the middle of the night. And the bull runs were are right outside of our Piso. But the bull runs and the parties are over now which makes me a little bit happy. We will be able to contact people on the street more and not worry so much of being caught in big groups. And we will also be able to meet with more people in their houses and have more lessons. 

Funny story of the week. We were at an investigators house and he was playing Michael Jackson for us. It was Thriller to be exact and I want to dance to it. The person's name is Jose and he is the funniest guy I've ever met here. It was dancing around doing the thriller walk and being a very fine zombie. He was clawing at me and making the sounds of Michael Jackson. Then I started dancing I did the Thriller walk. But I went a little too far ahead. I slid to the right and I came up and clap my hands. Between my hands I heard a crack. I broke his lamp, I broke his chandelier. That is the end of that story. 

View from our piso.
We don't have many progressive investigators, but we met this family that had the missionaries before. We talked and were able to set up a time to meet this week. They seem to be the perfect family and I'm very excited to teach them. I pray that we can be able to have the spirit with us when we meet. That reminds me prayer is the best thing to gain faith. You can literally ask for anything. Ask to receive insight in a problem you have, to have strength within your families, or simply to have a good day. But I find the better part is the opportunity to say thank you.  Some of you might be thinking, why is that the better part. It's a chance to reflect on who we and what we are. Thanking someone shows that you recognize their work within your life and you appreciate their help. And I am thankful for all that I have. My family, friends, mission, I can give a never ending of things I'm grateful for. I know that they all come from our father in heaven. 


A meeting of area in Pavones.
I know that we are children of God. That he knows us personally and wants us to live with eternal happiness. I know that we all receive answers to our prayers. I also know that answers may come now, later, or even into the next life. I can give a personal witness that prayer is a great blessing that God has given us. That through prayer will be strengthened to endure hardships and trials. And that prayer is used both in good time and bad time. I know these things to be true without a doubt in my body. 


New pants, and tie.
Con mucho amor,

Guadalajara

   
Me and Elder Nash

Well Guadalajara´s very small compared to Madrid but the people are the same. This week is fair week for the city and they party hard every night. There´s a parade each afternoon and at night for two weeks straight. There´s rock concerts in every park every night. Just thousands of people clogging the small streets of guadalajara. And every morning there is a running of the bulls in the main road. And it all ends with a bull fight in the bull ring. 

     Funny story of the week. oh. A little old lady about a yard stick tall gave us pamphlets from her bishop and started talking to us. She was saying something when a young girl not dressed appropriately passes by us. The old lady then yells and cusses her out. ¨What you are wearing is disgusting¨ she said. ¨Go home and change this instant!¨That little old lady is so funny. We were able to give a Book of Mormon in the end and said she´ll look at it. 

     One thing I learned this week is that everyone can receptive to the gospel. old or young. We all have that light within us to accept the gospel. sometimes that light has a shadow placed over it. The shadow may be very close to the light that it almost envelopes it. But the light of light bulb is constant (given that everything is functioning correctly). While the shadow changes constantly as the day goes by. Make sure that you are the light of the world. because we all have the potential to be a light to any one who has shadow covering theirs. 

Con mucho Amor,

Pointless to fear man, the family is ordained of God



      Thanks for all the things you're doing for me but I'm really fine. Yes this is a hard work but it's worth it. But I'm gaining weight back so don't worry. I'm here doing what God wants me to do. I realized that on my mission. When we put our whole faith in God and leave have no doubt that he will bless us. Our lives are so much easier and you will be more confident in things that you are doing. As long as those things are good in the eyes of God.
     One scripture story that testifies of this is when Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego refused to worship the idol built by king Nebuchadnezzar. They were cast into a fire for their actions. But they had full faith that God would save them if it were for a righteous cause. For their faith in God to save them from the fires of the furnace, God saved them and he was there with them. I'm not saying that I'll be thrown into a furnace but I will not fear what may happen if I know I'm doing is what God wants. I love you guys.
   

 
  Transfers are here now and I'm in Guadalajara now! My new companion is Elder Nash and he's from California. He just turned 22 yesterday and he has 16 months on the mission. And I have a good feeling about this area. Yes I'm sad to leave Barrio 5 but I'm called of God to preach in this area now. I know that for a fact now.
   

I'm not sure why but I feel I need to share this talk with you guys. One thing I know for sure is that the family is ordained of God and that this could possibly be my favorite talk of the importance of family.  I love you mom and dad. And I'm grateful to be your son. Thank you for being the example I hope to be when I have a family of my own. I never realized it until I came on a mission is that my greatest dream is to be a father. It no longer matters what job I'll have, where I'll live, or how beautiful my wife will be. My biggest dream is to be a father. Thank you. 
 

And a Little Child Shall Lead Them

By President Boyd K. Packer

 

Husbands and wives should understand that their first calling--from which they will never be released--is to one another and then to their children.

     Years ago on a cold night in a train station in Japan, I heard a tap on the window of my sleeper car. There stood a freezing boy wearing a ragged shirt with a dirty rag tied about a swollen jaw. His head was covered with scabies. He held a rusty tin can and a spoon, the symbol of an orphan beggar. As I struggled to open the door to give him money, the train pulled out.

     I will never forget that starving little boy left standing in the cold, holding up an empty tin can. Nor can I forget how helpless I felt as the train slowly pulled away and left him standing on the platform.

    Some years later in Cusco, a city high in the Andes of Peru, Elder A. Theodore Tuttle and I held a sacrament meeting in a long, narrow room that opened onto the street. It was night, and while Elder Tuttle spoke, a little boy, perhaps six years old, appeared in the doorway. He wore only a ragged shirt that went about to his knees.

    On our left was a small table with a plate of bread for the sacrament. This starving street orphan saw the bread and inched slowly along the wall toward it. He was almost to the table when a woman on the aisle saw him. With a stern toss of her head, she banished him out into the night. I groaned within myself.

    Later the little boy returned. He slid along the wall, glancing from the bread to me. When he was near the point where the woman would see him again, I held out my arms, and he came running to me. I held him on my lap.

    Then, as something symbolic, I set him on Elder Tuttle’s chair. After the closing prayer the hungry little boy darted out into the night.

    When I returned home, I told President Spencer W. Kimball about my experience. He was deeply moved and told me, “You were holding a nation on your lap.” He said to me more than once, “That experience has far greater meaning than you have yet come to know.”

    As I have visited Latin American countries nearly 100 times, I have looked for that little boy in the faces of the people. Now I do know what President Kimball meant.

    I met another shivering boy on the streets of Salt Lake City. It was late on another cold winter night. We were leaving a Christmas dinner at a hotel. Down the street came six or eight noisy boys. All of them should have been at home out of the cold.

    One boy had no coat. He bounced about very rapidly to stave off the chill. He disappeared down a side street, no doubt to a small, shabby apartment and a bed that did not have enough covers to keep him warm.

   At night, when I pull the covers over me, I offer a prayer for those who have no warm bed to go to.

    I was stationed in Osaka, Japan, when World War II closed. The city was rubble, and the streets were littered with blocks, debris, and bomb craters. Although most of the trees had been blasted away, some few of them still stood with shattered limbs and trunks and had the courage to send forth a few twigs with leaves.

    A tiny girl dressed in a ragged, colored kimono was busily gathering yellow sycamore leaves into a bouquet. The little child seemed unaware of the devastation that surrounded her as she scrambled over the rubble to add new leaves to her collection. She had found the one beauty left in her world. Perhaps I should say she was the beautiful part of her world. Somehow, to think of her increases my faith. Embodied in the child was hope.

    Mormon taught that “little children are alive in Christ” and need not repent.

      Around the turn of the previous century, two missionaries were laboring in the mountains of the southern United States. One day, from a hilltop, they saw people gathering in a clearing far below. The missionaries did not often have many people to whom they might preach, so they made their way down to the clearing.

      A little boy had drowned, and there was to be a funeral. His parents had sent for the minister to “say words” over their son. The missionaries stood back as the itinerant minister faced the grieving father and mother and began his sermon. If the parents expected to receive comfort from this man of the cloth, they would be disappointed.

      He scolded them severely for not having had the little boy baptized. They had put it off because of one thing or another, and now it was too late. He told them very bluntly that their little boy had gone to hell. It was their fault. They were to blame for his endless torment.

      After the sermon was over and the grave was covered, the elders approached the grieving parents. “We are servants of the Lord,” they told the mother, “and we have come with a message for you.” As the sobbing parents listened, the two elders read from the revelations and bore their testimony of the restoration of the keys for the redemption of both the living and the dead.

      I have some sympathy for that preacher. He was doing the best he could with such light and knowledge as he had. But there is more that he should have been able to offer. There is the fullness of the gospel.

      The elders came as comforters, as teachers, as servants of the Lord, as authorized ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

      These children of whom I spoke represent all of our Heavenly Father’s children. “Children are an heritage of the Lord: and … happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them.”

    The creation of life is a great responsibility for a married couple. It is the challenge of mortality to be a worthy and responsible parent. Neither man nor woman can bear children alone. It was meant that children have two parents--both a father and a mother. No other pattern or process can replace this one.

    Long ago a woman tearfully told me that as a college student she had made a serious mistake with her boyfriend. He had arranged for an abortion. In due time they graduated and were married and had several other children. She told me how tormented she now was to look at her family, her beautiful children, and see in her mind the place, empty now, where that one child was missing.

    If this couple understands and applies the Atonement, they will know that those experiences and the pain connected with them can be erased. No pain will last forever. It is not easy, but life was never meant to be either easy or fair. Repentance and the lasting hope that forgiveness brings will always be worth the effort.

    Another young couple tearfully told me they had just come from a doctor where they were told they would be unable to have children of their own. They were brokenhearted with the news. They were surprised when I told them that they were actually quite fortunate. They wondered why I would say such a thing. I told them their state was infinitely better than that of other couples who were capable of being parents but who rejected and selfishly avoided that responsibility.

    I told them, “At least you want children, and that desire will weigh heavily in your favor in your earthly lives and beyond because it will provide spiritual and emotional stability. Ultimately, you will be much better off because you wanted children and could not have them, as compared to those who could but would not have children.”

    Still others remain unmarried and therefore childless. Some, due to circumstances beyond their control, are raising children as single mothers or single fathers. These are temporary states. In the eternal scheme of things--not always in mortality--righteous yearning and longing will be fulfilled.

    “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.”

    The ultimate end of all activity in the Church is to see a husband and his wife and their children happy at home, protected by the principles and laws of the gospel, and sealed safely in the covenants of the everlasting priesthood. Husbands and wives should understand that their first calling--from which they will never be released--is to one another and then to their children.

    One of the great discoveries of parenthood is that we learn far more about what really matters from our children than we ever did from our parents. We come to recognize the truth in Isaiah’s prophecy that “a little child shall lead them.”

    In Jerusalem, “Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

    “And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

    “Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”

    “Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

    “And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.”

    We read in the Book of Mormon of the visit of Jesus Christ to the New World. He healed and blessed the people and commanded that the little children should be brought to Him.

    Mormon records, “They brought their little children and set them down upon the ground round about him, and Jesus stood in the midst; and the multitude gave way till they had all been brought unto him.”

    He then commanded the people to kneel. With the children around Him, the Savior knelt and offered a prayer to our Father in Heaven. After the prayer the Savior wept, “And he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.

    “And when he had done this he wept again.”

    I can understand the feelings expressed by the Savior toward children. There is much to be learned from following His example in seeking to pray for, bless, and teach “those little ones.”

      I was number 10 in a family of 11 children. So far as I know, neither my father nor my mother served in a prominent calling in the Church.

     Our parents served faithfully in their most important calling--as parents. Our father led our home in righteousness, never with anger or fear. And the powerful example of our father was magnified by the tender counsel of our mother. The gospel is a powerful influence in the life of every one of us in the Packer family and to the next generation and the next generation and the next, as far as we have seen.

      I hope to be judged as good a man as my father. Before I hear those words “well done” from my Heavenly Father, I hope to first hear them from my mortal father.

    Many times I have puzzled over why I should be called as an Apostle and then as the President of the Quorum of the Twelve in spite of having come from a home where the father could be termed as less active. I am not the only member of the Twelve who fits that description.

    Finally I could see and understand that it may have been because of that circumstance that I was called. And I could understand why in all that we do in the Church, we need to provide the way, as leaders, for parents and children to have time together as families. Priesthood leaders must be careful to make the Church family-friendly.

    There are many things about living the gospel of Jesus Christ that cannot be measured by that which is counted or charted in records of attendance. We busy ourselves with buildings and budgets and programs and procedures. In so doing, it is possible to overlook the very spirit of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

    Too often someone comes to me and says, “President Packer, wouldn’t it be nice if …?”

    I usually stop them and say no, because I suspect that what follows will be a new activity or program that is going to add a burden of time and financial means on the family.

    Family time is sacred time and should be protected and respected. We urge our members to show devotion to their families.

    When we were first married, my wife and I decided that we would accept the children that would be born to us with the responsibility attending their birth and growth. In due time they have formed families of their own.

    Twice in our marriage, at the time of the births of two of our little boys, we have had a doctor say, “I do not think you are going to keep this one.”

    Both times this brought the response from us that we would give our lives if our tiny son could keep his. In the course of that offer, it dawned on us that this same devotion is akin to what Heavenly Father feels about each of us. What a supernal thought.

    Now in the sunset of our lives, Sister Packer and I understand and witness that our families can be forever. As we obey the commandments and live the gospel fully, we will be protected and blessed. With our children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren, our prayer is that each one of our growing family will have that same devotion toward those precious little ones.

    Fathers and mothers, next time you cradle a newborn child in your arms, you can have an inner vision of the mysteries and purposes of life. You will better understand why the Church is as it is and why the family is the basic organization in time and in eternity. I bear witness that the gospel of Jesus Christ is true, that the plan of redemption, which has been called the plan of happiness, is a plan for families. I pray the Lord that the families of the Church will be blessed, parents and children that this work will roll forth as the Father intends. I bear this witness in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

 I love you all. Thank you for all you do for me and I really appreciate all your prayers and love.
 
Con Amor, 
Your son. Elder Trevor Broadbent.

I'm alright.

     This week went better than last week. Elder Peterson and I were able to teach more effectively as a companionship. I started taking up more work and I enjoy having more work. Keeps my mind off things. The highlight of my week was Sacrament meeting, we had a recent convert of about five months give a talk about faith. I could just feel and notice the spirit that entered the room. For the first time in the Sacrament, the room was quiet. No kids were running up the aisles, no one was eating lunch, and no one was talking during her talk. Just complete silence and the whispering of the Holy Ghost. 
     One thing I learned this week is that the gospel is true without a doubt in my mind. I should be sad about my grandfather passing away. But I feel no need to be sad. I know where he is, and that he is still my grandfather. So I've been energized to talk more, smile more, and work more because I have this knowledge. I love being here. It took me some time but, I love being here. Mi propósito es para testificar de Jesucristo. Yo sé que él vive.  (My purpose is to testify of Jesus Christ. I know he lives.)

Martes 28 de Julio 2015 (Tuesday, July 28, 2015)

     I am now legal! We went to the government buildings and now I have my residency card. I have to go back in one year to renew it but I'm legal now! The work here is slow in the summer. Everyone's on vacation now and we are doing a lot of work in the ward. Nothing much happened today other than I went to grab my card. Tomorrow will be better.

Miercoles 29 de Julio 2015 (Wednesday, July 29, 2015)

     Had an intercambio with Elder Esquien again today. We did a few lessons with the people that he and his companion have. I also gave a talk to the district today and it was alright.

Jueves 30 de Julio 2015 (Thursday, July 30, 2015)

     I had an intercambio with Elder Farmer today. He is has less time on the mission then I do. But one thing for sure is that he is doing better then I was when I had his time. We taught a family tonight and it was rough but it worked out fine.

Viernes 31 de Julio 2015 (Friday, July 31, 2015)

     Today was one of the roughest day of my life. I just had no desire to talk to anyone. My Spanish was just horrible and wanted to come home. Then I prayed to our father in heaven with all my heart and what energy I had and more. I received an answer from him. And he said, "You need to stay." So I am staying on the mission.


Elder Peterson and Elder Broadbent
I love you guys so much.

Como están




Me, Elder Esquien and Omar.
Not much has happened besides that it up in the 100's everyday now. And we played basketball today for p day. I've gotten pretty good at it now since I lost about 10 kilograms (22 lbs) since I left. My suit pants don't fit me anymore. So next week we'll go to a store and see if they have any pants. So I might have a European suit for the mission. This is a slow time for us because the people are on vacations and no one is on the streets. But we still have the members and they are amazing. Oh one thing that happened was interesting. I had an intercambio with a native Spanish speaker this week. Could not speak English for 40 hours. It was awesome, I like having a native
My Zone
companion. Well that's it.
