New mission email -10/06/09

hola familia y mi amigos!!! todos es muy bien y si Caleb yo como en la dia.  Everything is going great! my companion for the 9 week duration of the mtc is elder geddes from ceour d'laene.  we are sharing a room with elder nelson from torrington wy and elder oien from aberdeen wa.  elder nelson looks just like david probably will when i get back...tall skinny and really blonde hair.  we have been giving the first lesson in english just to be familiar with it but i can pray and bear my testimony in spanish already. and i can contact people in spanish too.  i have3 made a goal for myself to read the book of mormon in spanich in 4 weeks...i am in ether (or eter en espanol). it is so awesome because the first day i saw darek jentzsch...err...elder jentzsch at lunch and last night i found out that he is like 4 rooms down from me in our little housing facility.  anyways i got your letter today and your package...i started crying after reading the part that our footings are done on our house already and i started crying for joy...since now mom doesn't have to have a coniption.  i probably spelled that wrong but oh well...i have been taking quite a few pictures and will send them as soon as i can.  oh and i have two p-days a week because they take half of ours on tuesday and use it for service so to make up for that i can write (i think) on thursdays too...anyways i just wanted to let you know that i am doing well and my companion and i are getting along very well...now i wanna share my testimony with you en espanol:
      Tengo un testimonio de la iglesia de Jesucristo. Y que la iglesia es la solo iglesia verdad en la tierra.  Yo se que Jose Smith es el profeta de la restauracion y Jesucristo es el hijo de Dios.  Yo agradecido por mi familia y por el ejemplo de todos.  Agradecido por mi hermanos y mi padre y madre por escuchan a mi problemos.  Yo amo nosotros muchos.  Yo se que el Senor viven y yo agradecido por todo que tengo, en el nombre de Jesucristo, Amen...

Mom and dad, please just keep the testimony for you guys and the boys.  i would really appreciate that.  thanks so much for the cheeps y queso (chips and cheese).  also thanks for the letter.  when everyone was telling me that a letter is the best thing that can happen for a missionary, i didn't really believe it until i got that box of goodies and that letter...

Share with other family:

I love you guys lots and every night i think about you guys. Please keep sending the letters and i hope you got my mailing address, but now email will be easier...anyways my time is up, but i love you and miss you and i will be home before dad can do the "take it easy" from nacho libre...love you all again

sincerely,
elder child
