Familia!

!Yo estoy aqui! I finally made it to New York, New York! J My mission President, President Nelson, is super nice and friendly. He met us right as we got off the escalator and he knew where each missionary was from and talked to me for several minutes about Jacob Lake; he is really good friends with my boss, John Rich.

The weather is already pretty cold, but it’s beautiful! I’ve missed all the vegetation, as the JFK airport is right on the water front so we got to fly over the Atlantic. I’ve missed the East Coast (land view). Right now we’re at the mission home. We drove directly here from the airport and its 5 PM (3 PM for me; still on Mtn. Time). I’m starving though since yesterday was fast Sunday, then today I didn’t get breakfast or lunch, only peanuts/trail mix/candy so I feel sick from that, but Sis. Nelson has prepared an amazing meal that smells delicious. I can’t wait!

Elder Patchett & I were traveling companions, with Hna. Lewis from my MTC District. She’s the only new hermana. I know this is where I am supposed to be. I haven’t been this excited in a long time. I’m not even nervous, I’m just so happy to finally be here. I love our mission home, it’s a quaint house in the nicer part of Long Island and it reminds me of when I lived with LaDawn in North Potomac. The houses all have that beautiful Colonial Architecture; the stairs are really steep and small. Everything is old but I love it.

Our Zone leaders are super energetic and fun. They’re a Zebra companionship; one’s English speaking from Spanish Fork, UT and the other is from Buenos Aires, Argentina. It’s making me excited to meet my trainerJ. Tonight we’re spending the night here in the mission home basement. They’ve got 2 rooms with 6 bunk beds crammed in there. They also have a foosball and hockey table, (go figure), in the downstairs living room.

I already wrote you a letter earlier today on the plane, and I called you so I feel like I’ve basically been with you all day. Thank you for all your prayers and support. Know that you’re in my mindJ I love you!

Love,

Elder Lewis
