Hey family.
Here`s a few notes really quick. I`m writing another email that I`ll send in about 15 minutes.
You`re
going to call me at 7:00 PM on Christmas day. I know that`s kind of late,
but hopefully that works out okay. We don`t have daylight whatever time
going on down here. Here is the number: 25232714 It`s at Hna
Ziomara`s house. The phone call is supposed to be from 30 to 40
minutes. So, we`re going to talk for 40 minutes! Yay! If you can
figure out some sort of 3-way call with Doug and Dani and Kyle that
would be great. If not, it`s okay I`ll just talk to you all in WY.
I haven`t gotten another package yet. I haven`t asked my comp to
look through my package. I did take a sneak peak and the presents are
not wrapped. ... Thanks for the peanut brittle (I think it`s peanut brittle) :)
Apparently this address is a lot better for writing me.

Hey Family!
Hey I`m still in the best city in the world,
MASATEPE!!!! I was so happy when I found out. I had told Elder Talla
that if I had to leave Masatepe I would cry. We were waiting at Hna
Xiomara`s house when he and Elder Woodruff came out of their house with
news about the cambios. He started out by lying to us (solo Hna Tew
tiene cambios en toda la zona) and then told us the truth. We called
the Zone Leaders just to make sure. Anyway, Hna Castro was the only
person in our zone to have changes. She`s reopening an area in
Managua. I`m still here!
La reunion de cambios was on Wednesday. President Monestel gave us a
really awesome message about being osados! [bold!] He rewrote the verses that
tell the story of David and Goliath so that it was about Elder David,
the junior companion. His leaders were chambones [lazy bums] and people told him to
stop being a flechon (someone who keeps the rules) It was a really
good message. He gave us a lot of scriptures about it too. Cool. So,
when the cambios started I was looking around at all the sisters and
trying to figure out who would be my companion. I knew pretty much who
was training. I was hoping that my companion would be Hna DeHoyos...and
she is! She`s really fun and happy and cool. She reminds me of Kyle
because she has a pretty strong stupid detector. Shes`s from Texas.
Her parents are from Mexico. This is her last change. Estoy matandola.
muahahaha She was one of the first, maybe the first person to talk to
me when I got here to the mission. She`s really great. She is bold.
She is osada. She gets to the point in contacting which is good. She`s
obedient. She likes things done a certain way. She gets things done.
Really she`s a lot like Kyle.
So we`ve been doing a lot of contacting. It`s been interesting
teaching the area to Hna. DeHoyos. She`s been pretty patient. She`s
getting a lot of things in order and teaching me how to do pretty much
everything better than I have been doing it.
Every Friday morning we meet as a zone and have companion study and then
language study (in two big groups...really, there is an English Class and
White people time. haha) Then it`s district meeting and a zone
meeting. I was really happy this Friday because Hna. DeHoyos actually
wants to be obedient and wants me to be obedient. It`s really nice!
I`ve been a little sick but not much. Just a sore throat and an ear
ache. Hna. DeHoyos is still recovering from a nasty virus she got
about 2 and a half weeks ago.
Yesterday we were walking to the
church after trying to gather our investigators and Javier passed us on
his bike in his dark jeans and white shirt (from his school uniform).
It was a beautiful sight! Yay Javier! Way to be awesome!
I love my district and my branch. I love my companion and my area.
The first foto is Javier and Milton. Milton is Javier`s tio and he`s a recent convert.
Then It`s me and Hna Castro and Yeri. (I think that`s what foto I chose) Yeri is the son of Hna xiomara and Pres. Mercado. We eat at their house.
Then I don`t remember which one I chose. It might be Jamilet and Hna Castro. Jamilet has a purple shirt and her daughter is Samantha. Hopefully she gets baptized this weekend. I love you all thanks for the letters. I forgot to respond personally until now and it`s too late. But thanks for writing me dad and mom, Kevin and Bishop Kertesz and Carrie. I love to hear from you all
Love, HNA TEW Talk to y'all in less than a week. Look up the weather for Jinotepe,
