Hey Family,
Things are going good here it's kind of crazy and a lot to soak in. But it's amazing how much i've already learned in the first few days that I have been here. I was really kind of struggling those first few days but now i'm doing great things are going a lot better. I'm picking up on the language sort of haha. We are already teaching which is great times, I'm not sure how well we are getting our point across but I'm sure it will get better. My companions name is elder Hillyard, he is a baller, he is pretty chill just like me. He also did a lot of the same sports in high school, which is cool. We both dominate at basketball in gym, but we need some better competition haha. Me and my roomates we wake up at 6 rather then 6 30. We do a little work out and it's just better to start off the day, i'm not sure how long that will last. I've seen some people here that i know which is nice. And i've seen the kellems a couple of times and it seems like they're doing really well, they head out next week. I still got 8 weeks left ha. I leave here on Jan 9th. So it turns out that my mission does not go all the way down to where chile cuts in. Buenos Airest North is down there, and it includes Tierra Del Fuego. So maybe I wont be as cold as I thought.
I miss you guys a ton. I love you all so much, and I don't think I realized how much I loved each one of you guys until I left. I was pretty sad saying goodbye To You Mom, Mckenna, and Lindsey. But i know i'm doing what is right, and even though it's tough it will all be worth it. So today isn't actually my p day. It is kinda like a half p day. My real P day is on thursday. But ya so far everything is pretty good, my teachers are great my comp is great, I'm learning a ton. It's still kinda hard not to think about home and seeing you guys, but when I'm busy I forget all that stuff.
That was nice of rayleeeeen, ya i now understand how the Woolley's felt. Going on a mission is honestly the hardest thing I've ever had to do. Not physically but mentally and emotionally. I didn't realize it until those last couple days before I left and the first couple of days I was in here. But it is honestly getting better and better each and every day I'm in here. We watched a talk by Elder Holland that he gave to the missionaries, that really helped change my perspective about my mission. After watching it I realized the sacrifice that you guys made and that I made is nothing compared to the sacrifice of our savior. Sister kellems is sitting by me right now as I type by the way. She says hello to all haha!. But ya anyway everything is going good. I sleep really good at night the beds are pretty nice. The food is pretty good, it hasn't given me the runs yet haha, but it's not bad. I honestly do not know what all to tell you there is so much. But it's a cool place here. The spirit is very strong, you just feel peace here.
So anyway did you put my adress on facebook? If so that is great. Can you ask for everyones emails and then send them to me. And if you can think of anything else that i forgot can you send it as well. Also I left a letter from Katie on my desk can you get it and send it to me that would be much appreciated. I'm glad that mckenna won that I pod and that it helped boost her spirits. The girls were way more sad then I thought they would be. As was I. I love them so much they are the best. I wish I could give all of you one more big hug, you guys really are the best and I love you so much. This work is great, but it is also tough, but i'm beginning to love it. Tell Rayleeeen and Katelyn thanks for the letters and David as well. I'll be sure to write them back when I have time. I don't really know what else to say. Other then how is everything going? How is everyone holding up? Are things ok back at the house? Do you have any questions about anything that goes on here at the MTC? Or any questions about anything if so let me know. Oh also dad is possible for you to send me some consecrated oil, I'm not sure on the rules of that but if so that would be very much appreciated. Well my time is just about up I wish I could talk to you guys instantly but I can't, so this will do ha. I hope to hear from you all soon, and I hope that you checked your Email today. Well I love you all so much and miss you, but i know where I'm supposed to be. I'm glad I have your support in everything i do and have ever done. I really love you guys so much and I can't say it enough. Well until next thursday Hasta Luego.
Love Elder Chandler/Kyle
