Helllllo0! It was so good to hear from you guys on Christmas!!! I feel a lot better now. You guys are all growing up fast and losing weight. And i'm the one on the mission haha! But not much has happened since then. Oh i realized i might need a couple of new shirts. I'm gaining weight now and my shirts are geting small. I'm working out a lot. So that'd be way cool. But thinbs are going way good here. We climbed up a mountain today for P-Day. It was pretty cool. Well....the mission is great and i'm healthy. I love you guys so much! Can't wait to talk to you guys in 6 months haha. Kinda a long time but we'll manage. Stay safe and say your prayers! Bye Bye

Hello family!!! So i¨ll explain what´s up here in my new area. I love it here. It´s the campo so it´s a branch here. Like 40 or 50 people in church. Haha and every ward and branch in the DR is tone deaf. Not just some hahaha!!! We don´t have an organ. We use a cd player in this area. With a microphone so everyone can here it haha. Super ghetto but it keeps us somewhat organized when we´re singing haha.....not! So this last sunday i gave a talk in sacrament. It totally depends on the area you´re in. Some areas they have you give a talk...and some they don´t. In los molinos they didn´t cause there are tons of people in the that ward. Ya i can keep my own when in a convo. I live with a dominican. So it´s pretty cool. Call me on thursday cause my comp calls his family on friday. Ya i think we´re 3 hours difference here so call me at 11 in the afternoon. We´ll be in for lunch at that time. But i have a story for you guys.....so we went to visit a less active girl two days ago. And when we arrived she was all screaming and told us to run back to the back patio. Where we found her (200 plus bermuda step father with dread locks down to the middle of his back) stumbing around in the back yard with blood coming from his nose and mouth. This guy doesn´t very much spanish so everyones freaking out yelling at me to talk to him. So i´m over talking to this huge black dude trying to find out if he´s alright. He tells me he doesn´t want any help....but he clearly had something wrong with him. So we get him into the house where we sit him down and the mom comes home and starts freaking out for her husband...that didn´t help! Sge´s all flailing around screaming and crying. We got everything all calmed down after like an hour. We then called a doctor to come over to check him out. He told us he´s fine and then left....ten mins later we hear screaming from in the room (where the wife is and the huge bermuda man) Ya we dash into the room where this guy is having a seizure! So me and my comp flip him on his side and yell for someone to get a van ready. So we pick up this huge dude and throw him into a small van. This guys all seized up his arms and legs. The van dies for a min. Everyone is all freaking out. We finally got the van up and going again and take this guy to the hospital. We dragged him into the hospital and put him on the bed. And he starts to try to get up. At first it´s just me and my comp shoving him back down but this guy out weighs us by a lot so others step in. We fight with this guy for like 30 trying to get him to stay down cause he´s got blood all over him. We were all sweating...i was covered in this guys urine cause he peed himself when he had the seizure and my comp is covered in this guys blood cause he was fighting with him to stay down. I had the legs and he had the head. We finally got him tied down to the bed with a hospital sheet. I left the hospital room with my shirt covered in urine and my shirt all untucked and my tie all messed up. LOL what an experience uh? But i´m alright and safe. We have two people who are going to get baptized. Things are going great. I love you guys. Can´t wait to talk to you all. I expect to talk to EVERYONE cool beanz? Love ya

Hello family!!! I'm super sorry for taking so long to email you back. Me and my comp had to head into the capitol cause he's got knee problems so we headed to the doctors. We got back late and had to head out and help the branch out with their chirstmas program. But i'm back out in the campo again. I love it out here. I could stay out here for like 6 months and be totally cool. My house is way nice and big! We have electricity 24/7 and we have running water! My comp is a Dominican named Elder Auzon. He's way cool. I still have to get used to his culture...aka he does weird things. Haha but i'll manage. But things are going really good here. We're excited to get to talk to our families in a couple of weeks. We have a cell phone (829) 755-7480 so like a couple of days before we get to call i'll need you to give me a quick call so we can set things up for the real call :) Wow grandma and grandpa sent me money? Tell them thank you so much for that. That is kinda a lot of money! Noah had to get stiches again? Wow that kid is going to die! I hope he's alright tho. Give him a kiss on the head for me. Haha Luis...that guy was my favorite in my last area. We got him going back to church did ya know that? I argues with him for like a half an hour on why he should go back to church. He is a stud. It sounds like everyone is doing good...that makes me feel happy. I always keep you guys in my prayers especially during this weather all icy and snowy and what not. Please stay safe and be careful while driving ok? But grandma it sounds like you've had an adventure moving out and what not. It's kinda sad that moving out of that house...i'll miss it i won't lie. But it's way cool that you're moving closer to family :) I love you guys so much. Can't wait to get that call. Oh our cell phone is way accient so it doesn't get picture messages. But Ya you guys stay safe. I send you my love from the campo!!!!!

I was going to send you guys pictures of the baptism that we had this last sunday. This way dope lady that lives in the poorest part of our area. By the river Ozama. Me and my comp just chill with them and listen to their conversations and just bust up. They are so funny! Her and her best friend that is also a members. So ya we had that baptism and i baptized her. So that was a special go away present. But ya my comp stayed and is going to be a District leader. He doesn´t really wanna stay...neither did i haha but he´ll be a way sick District Leader. And he´s got a free baptism this next transfer. Oh ya...me and my new comp are in a Super SR. We´re both SR´s so we´ll see what happens with that. Maybe i´ll just have to fall back and let him take then reins so we don´t fight. Ya know? But things are going way good here. I´m excited to see what then next transfer has instored for me out in the middle of nowhere haha. But hey i love you guys so much. My computer is dumb and won´t let me send pictures.
