Another email from today. This was sent out as a group email.

Como Estan Ustedes? I am doing good here, very hot but good! These past 2 weeks have been soooooo busy! I have been here and there, I have been everywhere like the Dr Seuss book! I got a new companion today, his name is Elder Martinez! he is from Santiago Chile and he is very good at speaking English, he can speak it clearly and without and accent.
My espanol is coming along really well and I am finally getting the hang of it. I still have troubles with explaning things, but I can understand just about everything being said. The word chabone is a word for guy in Spanish, but we as missionaries use it as fool. We call each other chabones sometimes, haha. Its pretty funny.
This week we had a baptism. We baptized a 9 year old, her name is Natali Sanchez Cuellar. It was awesome. Apparently no one wants to be in this zone cause it doesnt ever baptize or anything, but we finally got one! We have taught 25 lessons with a member this week. It is good, and I love Munro. I know the area pretty good! I am still practicing with my teaching skills. I am getting better though.
On the 24th we are having a Christmas dinner with all of the missionaries together! I am excited for this!
It is incredibly hot, whoever wants a hot Christmas can come visit cause man it is hot.
Another thing that I think is funny is that all the Spanish speakers know the word freaking and they use it like its Spanish. Theyll be talking really fast in Spanish and then all of a sudden you will hear the word freakin. hahaha it is hilarious!
I hope all is well con ustedes and that you all have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!

His brother, Tyler, asked him if hes ever been mugged or threatened and he said: I havent been mugged or really threatened either, but this one guy was demanding our money and were like Bro, somos misioneros de la iglesia de Jesu Crist, ne tenemos plata, per podemos bautize usted (Translated it says: Bro, we are missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ, we have no money, but we can baptize you). hahaha he left and we were fine.
