MTC Week #4- Do You Think I Speak Spanish Well?

Hola familia! Me gusta el ccm mucho. Yo espero que Ustedes saben quantos les amo. cada dia nosotros leemos las escrituras. La semana pasada, luis dijo si a un comprimiso a ser bautizado! mi companaero y yo fue el primero companarismos a obtener un comprimiso a ser bautizado. Luis tiene preguntas de la fe, pero estamos muy cerca de la respuesta el necisita. en nuestra ultima cita, hablamos acerca de la expiasion de Jesuchristo. Luis tiene muchas preguntas pero, yo pienso que nosotros tenemos la respuesta. 
(Here is the best translation that I can do with my limited high school Spanish- Hopefully it is what Mason is saying- "Hi, Family! I like the MTC a lot. I hope that you know how much I love it. Every day, we read the scriptures. Last week, Luis said that he would promise to be baptized! My companion and I are the first companionship to obtain a promise for baptism. Luis has questions of faith, but we are very close to answering his questions. At our last meeting, we talked about the Atonement (I think) of Jesus Christ. Luis has many questions, but we believe that we have the answers.")
I hope that that sort of makes sense. I know more Spanish than that, but I’m not very good at writing, and this computer doesn’t have a Spanish keyboard, so I don't know how to make all of the special things like accents. Last night we had a devotional from one of the guys that is in charge of all of the advertising the church does, and he showed us all of this stuff that the church puts up in New York and starting in the UK. They have all of these new commercials and stuff online that they start today, but I think that there are already a ton of stuff that they are advertising in the train station. There were some train stations that only have Mormon ads all over it. And then they have ads on 1/4 of the double decker buses. It was a pretty cool devotional. I will email you later because I forgot to bring my card reader. Lo siento (I’m sorry). Do you think I speak Spanish well? There are a lot of people leaving this week, so last night we all got together and sang “Till We Meet Again” in Spanish. Then they all give away all of their stuff. It is really cool. The last time they all left, our room got a fan, but this time we got a Mexican flag that we will pass on. We also go this cool thing that is like the golden plates made out of wire hangers and yellow paper. There are a ton of people who have written their own little books, and we are all going to do it, and it will be super cool. I probably didn’t tell you that we got a new district in our zone. That was like two weeks ago. One of their companionships is the new zone leaders. They skipped our district, but it’s okay because we all realized that we just don't have anything to learn from leadership positions. Just kidding! But we get a new district again on Wednesday, and that is always fun. I will talk to you again later BYE! (Email in the afternoon) I have heard good things about visas, some of these people that got there recently are getting visas in Las Vegas so I might end up flying down to Las Vegas sometime this week. I would call you but you can’t come see me. Sorry. 
The pictures: The first one is my companion. The next one is Elder Scheibler, he isn't always that angry. (He isn’t angry in that picture either.) The next one is Elder Harrington and my companion. 

I am going to have to send a lot of emails, because I can only send 3 pictures per email. The first picture is when we made a three layer bunk bed. We stacked the top bunk from another bed onto a normal bunk bed. It was pretty cool, but it almost smashed this one kid and this other kid almost fell off the 3rd layer. It was like the Hindenburg disaster. It was pretty crazy, but nobody got hurt. The kids in the picture are from the new district I think. The next picture is Elders Dalrymple, Jensen, Schiebler, and Fullmer, I think. The next one is this other picture of those same four guys except we are on the temple walk. I think it looks like a cool picture for some reason. 

 

This is a picture of all of our room standing in front of our flag that we got from the departing district. This is Elder Jensen this morning. And the last one is all of the people that live in my room. My companion, and then Harrington, and Callen.



I don't know what else to write, but my companion always emails a ton of people, so I’ve got plenty of time. I hope that you think I am writing you enough. I think if I email every Monday and send you a letter on Wednesday or Thursday, that should be fine, but you let me know if it isn't. I hope that you guys are all having a good time. I love you. Yo escrite a ustedes en miercoles o jueves. Yo espero que esta estar a bien. Y yo uso la forma Usted porque missionarios no usan la tu form. It isn´t because I don´t feel familiar with you. (He is saying “I write you on Wednesday or Thursday. I hope that is good. I use the form ustedes, because missionaries use that form”- Ustedes is the formal way of speaking, so he is saying that missionaries speak that way rather than familiar, even if he is familiar with us.)
