Whats up family,
We get to talk this Thursday are you all excited. I can´t believe that it is already Christmas. The time is really flying. Well I´m hear in Dolores and it is a lot different than T-bó. The area is a lot nicer there aren´t as many dirt roads and the overall living conditions are a lot better. But i will admit that i do miss T-bó i loved that place i hope that i get the chance to return during my mission for a sector conference or something. But this area is really good. We had a baptism last Friday. It was really cool a little boy named Carlitos was baptized by his father. Carlitos has already read the Book of Mormon with the pictures and he understood everything he is such a smart kid. The ward here is a lot smaller than the ward in T-bó but it seems to me to be a good strong ward. So my new companion is from El Salvador. I am going to learn a lot of spanish this change it is going to be a lot of fun. We get along really well. He speaks english almost fluently. But we usually speak spanish together. He has three changes more than i do. He started his mission last February so he is almost at his year mark. Can you believe that i already have been gone for 6 months that is crazy the time goes by really fast. It isn´t as hot here in Dolores as it was in T-bó i think that there isn´t as much humidity. I still sweat a ton but what can i do about that. Dolores is just a little city and we are the only missionaries here. We are in the zone of Mercedes but we have to travel 40 minutes to go to district meeting every Tuesday. It is a lot different because we are out here on our own. It is weird to think that it is already christmas i swear that yesterday i was shoveling snow and know i am in a country where there is not any snow or mountains. About the phone call i probably will call you at 11 o’clock in the morning. That will be 4 o’clock here and 3 o’clock in chile. I am will call you from my house and give you the number that you need to call me and then you can call me right back. I can´t wait to here everyone´s voice it is going to be really cool. I hope i hope you don´t think i sound funny or anything but i bet i have a little different accent. We had changes last Tuesday and i left T-bó at 6 and i didn´t sleep at all that night. But now i think i am back to normal Wednesday i about feel asleep during a couple of our lessons. I love you all and can´t wait to talk to you on Thursday at 11 o’clock. Espero que ustedes estén animados. Les amo y les hablaré este jueves. Tengan un buen día. Gracias por todo su amor y apoyo.

Hola Familia,
How is everyone doing? I can’t believe that it is already to the 6 month mark. Time has really gone by fast. So I bet you are a ready to hear the news. I am leaving this area. I am going to miss it so much. I love the people here in this ward and all of the people that I have had the chance to work with. I am pretty nervous and excited to go. I will be with Elder Torres. Yep that is right I will be with a Latino. So I guess that I will learn the language a lot better. I am really excited to that. I will have to speak Spanish all day. With Elder Hansen and Elder McClellan we didn’t speak a lot of Spanish together only when we were talking to others that didn’t speak English. But I am going to Mercedes that is the department I will be serving in the area called Dolores. I have mixed feelings about leaving but I am excited for a change. My comp is going the offices so they are taking out both of us and Elder Gardner is going to train a new missionary here. I think this area is the best area to train I LOVE THIS AREA. About the phone call I don’t know exactly what is going to happen. I will email you on Monday or I will call you but I probably will email. I am 5 hours in front of you so do you want me to call in the morning in Utah or the afternoon? I can probably do either. I am way excited to hear you all. Dad it sounds like you are going to have a busy life for the next few years. That is so cool that you are the Bishop you will do such a good job. I bet the food thing is going to change a lot. That will be so funny to come home and for my “Homecoming” have you up there on the stand with me. I hope that I get as much food from the members in my new area as it did here. We ate everyday almost with members. I will have to learn how to cook if we don’t eat a lot with the members. The food here is really bland it doesn’t have a lot of flavor at all. But I eat what there is. Oh I have to tell you I ate carpincho. It is a huge Guinea pig I tasted really good. I have a request the next package that someone sends could you send some of that camp dry stuff that makes things waterproof again, because the other day it rained and got soaked, if you could sent it that would be awesome.I can’t wait to talk to you all this coming week I love you all. Thanks for all the support and love.

Hola mi Familia
Hello everyone,
How was your week? I had a good week here, it went by really fast I can’t believe that it is already December. Time is really going by fast. This change is pretty much over, this week we have interviews, the next week we have our sector conference, and then the week after that we have changes. This change is going to be one week short because they are sending the Elders home early so they can be home for Christmas. I haven’t decided if I want to leave this area or stay here. I would like to stay but I think that I’m going to leave. One of us is going to leave either Elder McClellan or me. Can you believe that we will talk this month in a couple weeks is all. Is it alright if we do a 3 way call with Elyse so that I can talk to her also? All the Elders that come to our house think that it is funny because on the Calendar that Jodi made for me on the last day of every month it tells me how many days I have left to serve, and I have 565 days left today. We had 2 baptisms this week Antonela and Diego. They are cousins and most of there family is members but they weren’t. They both are 10 years old. We played soccer last Wednesday with all the youth in our ward it was a lot of fun. I’m not that good but I can help the team. We had 6 people in church this yesterday. It was really good because it was raining. It is really funny here because if it is raining the whole city shuts down. Not the whole city but most of it. Everyday that it rains the people make torta fritas o sea scones. They are really good but they are lacking honey butter. I haven’t received any packages yet but I think that they won’t get here until the end of the month. Congratulations Aaron you are done with school I bet that feels nice. Now when you work you are going to actually receive a pay check. I hope that it is a baby boy!Everything is going great here the weather is hot and humid and I’m not the biggest fan of humidity. I’m becoming a Latin I use axe body spray. I love you all and I’m so grateful for all the love and support that you all give to me. Keep working hard and having fun it is the trick to being happy. The scripture of the week is 2Timothey 4 verse 7 if we can all say that at the end of our live we lived a great life. I love you all. Choa Elder Tate
