Hey parents and family. Hope everybody is doing great. I hope school and work is also going great. I miss you a lot and I miss my home but I know that I need to stay here. This place is amazing!!! The spirit is so strong!! Everybody is so kind!! I'm still getting used to being called Elder all the time as well as calling everybody sisters and Elders. My District is so great we all get along and our really starting to bond. Tonight we get to go to the gym and play ball. Hopefully I can show them my basketball skills. Tuesday we'll be able to go to the temple and I'm really looking forward to that. 

I think I have prayed more times than I can count these past couple of days. I have studied the scriptures so much. Our classes are awesome we are really learning how to teach with the spirit. We have great teachers. They are pretty new but they are great. My companion is Elder Weston. He is really quiet and doesn't say much but hopefully he can start talking more and getting out of his shell. Till now I have not found Caleb (Elder Call) or Scottie (Elder Brown). Caleb was not able to escort me unfortunately. Hopefully I can find them.

I love you all, be safe and don't worry about me I'm fine.
