July 27 2009

Hello there world. It's your friend, son, grandson, newphew, whatever you call me from the MTC. I've decided this is another world here. When we see people from the 'real world' its kinda weird. I find myself asking the dumbest stuff haha, then realize i'm definately a missionary. This week has been good, we got our other teacher Hermano Pino back from his vacation and our Spanish has taken off ever since! I'm feeling a lot better about it but still completely inadequate. Work in progress. That is so cool that Kyler got the opportunity to go to efy. Thank you for the package of socks and stuff! Saturday was like Christmas I got a package from you, nat, and kristen! I was trippin out, i felt very loved and the other Elders wouldn't talk to me for like 2 hours :). Ummm, you asked about who i've been wrting. I write you(dad kyler carter karly), katie, and nathan on a regular basis. I've also written and recieved from scott and mel, jb and kris, nat and jeff, jeff c, kirk and dani, not mike and tash yet but today i will write them. I got a letter from Liz which was cool, one from daniel, and a few others. Thank everyone for writing me I love it! From now on have ky, carter, and kar kar either hand write or dearelder till i leave then i'll email back. (emails to me are hard because i only have 30 minutes then it kicks me off, including time to read). Anyways thankyou for the pictures they are great and hanging by my desk, i'll have new pics and vids to send soon! The DR guys left :(, it's completely (not been good) without them. They were the life of the fun here, and i got along with them so so so well! Great guys. I'll write more about them later but our district is left with 4. Yeah 4. Dismal, haha. So we get to see a lot of each other. We also had another district leave to mexico so we are short in numbers but a new one comes in wednesday 8 elders and 4 sisters. I can't believe how many sisters are here! never expected this many it's pretty cool. We had a great talk last night by the missionary dept pres Bro. Allen. He had us look at the lyrics to come come ye saints (my all time fav hymn) and he realated how it's not just about the pioneers but its about us missionaries. The lyrics just go along with missionary work so well. At the conclusion of his speech we sung the song with the mormon tabernacle choir. The spirit was unbelievable, and as the last verse started, missionaries started standing, and it caught on. 2,000 modern day stripling warriors standing and singing in one voice, tears running down all of our faces. It was unlike any other time in my life. This church is true! The feelings of peace and joy this gospel brings are everything! I'm so excited to share what i know with the people of Argentina. I love you all!!! Till next week,
Hasta luego!
