Sorry, I forgot to post this one:
Hey Everyone,
David, Grandpa, Grandma, Heidi and Mom I got your letters and mom I got the package so thank you. David, Heidi and Mom I sent you letters so hope you get them soon. I also sent pictures from the MTC and some of NJ. Grandpa it's nice to hear that things are good and that South Carolina went well. I am happy Grandma Sanders is doing well. Samantha it was nice to get an E-mail from you and I bet you are busy with school. That is always normal. It's nice to hear how things are going back home and that everything is well. Mom I loved the cookies. Tell the girls thanks for me. Thanks for Keeping me in your prayers. Things here are weird. You go from being so down to feeling like you are on top of the world. I have seen so many great things happening here and it's amazing. I am so happy right now and love doing this work. I am having such a great time. I have so many stories I can tell about things going on here with my mission but don't have the time. I can really feel all the prayers. I can feel them as I go out and work. I am meeting lots of great people. I hate being in a Spanglish area. English/ Spanish because in the Spanish lessons I have no clue what is going on and am so bored and most of the time fall asleep. Food here is amazing. It's crazy you can find places to eat from all over the world. We had a fire side yesterday, and it was amazing. New converts spoke and shared their testimony and the spirit was so strong. It's amazing to see the lives of these people change from hearing two 19-21 year olds teach them. It's also crazy to see the changes in my life from being on a mission. I have learned so many great things already. It's weird to know I have been on a mission for a month now and now down to 23 months left. Doesn't seem like it's been that long already. I am starting to fall in love with this work. It's been a month and I have 23 left but already not wanting to come home anymore and only know that is going to get worse when it's time to come home and take that name tag off and it's the last thing that I want to do. It's hard to leave this behind. The hardest part is changing your life style. Once you are willing to give up everything then the mission becomes super easy. Well I love and miss you all. Things are going great for me. Heidi if you can send me some sweats to work out in would be nice since it's getting cold and find my gloves. I don't know why but corn nuts and sun flower seeds sound really good and if I could get some of them. Also if you could look for some boots for me. We have cars all over my mission and if we want a GPS we have to buy one. My companion right now has one but when he leaves I won't have a GPS so if we could look for one and get one for a good deal that would be nice also. If there is anything else I can think of I will let you know but that is all for now. Almost all areas of my mission have cars. Only 4 areas walk or bike. So that's all. Well I have to go and I love and miss you all. I hope everything stays well and will see you all in 23 months, when you come get me you will love it out here. O a little history: Hindenberg that flew over the ocean or something is from Flemington the town I live in and the Flemington Court house is famous from some case they had and the union city hotel is famous from that case. If you want to know more history and stuff, because I don't even know all the history around me, look up Flemington NJ and Clinton NJ. That is where I live and the area I am in. Well I will talk to you all later and hope to hear from you all soon. O and what's the blog address for my mission.
Love, Elder Sanders
