How ya'll doin? I just got a new companion, he is from Arizona. We are going to go preach the gospel like a couple of bosses, but for right now we're emailing. I am a huge slacker in sending out emails, but I am doing great out here. I am learning how to speak Castillano sooo well and the people here are soo awesome, especially the members, que capos ellos. My mom tells me that she puts my pics and stuff on Facebook and some letters too, so if you're not my friend, send me a request please...my mom will accept it.
I can't believe that it has already been like 7 months since I left homw. I am glad that I love the mission. My last companion was someone who I "killed" (in mission terms, it means that I was his last companion before his 2 years were up and went home.) he was sad to have to go back home and I am just happy that I love the mission so much and I still have what feels like plenty of time for right now, but it will go so fast. I loe you all don't forget to do the OLA
Orar

Asistir (a la capilla)
Ready, Pray, and GO TO CHURCH. The reading doesn't need to be much, just open up the Book of Mormon for five minutes and expect to learn something new. This is the way we will be strong and come closer to the Savior. One thing about being on a mission I learned is that this stuff is for real, that we need to do these things to be strong, active members and to get to know Christ, who is our Savior, better. It's the way to salvation in other words. I love you all soo much and I hope you have a great week.

See you next fall...(Trip)...haha such a classic.
chau!

My email:

Hey Mom, I just got back in San Pedro not too long ago. I have a new companion from Arizona named Elder Jones! He is a capo. It will be his first transfer as district leader here. He is excited and he told me I might have to help him a little bit cause he doesn't know what to do very well. I am pretty sure it will be another great transfer. We're going to get work DONE!
I haven't got my package. I asked about it, they said that everything is being opened at the mail place and that it cost money to go receive it, so they wait til enough people have packages waiting to go and get it. Freakin mail.
Well the time has come and I have to go cause we need to have some time to buy some stuff and for my comp to unpack a little. Love you so much mom and tell dad the same please.
