Monday, December 2, 2024 - Thanksgiving Feast🤭🦃

Hey everyone! 

This week was pretty good! To start off we had Thanksgiving on Thursday, and to be honest we had these awesome plans to go to Denny's and stuff but then we had a lesson/tour at the temple chapel that went late so we went home and ate pupusas instead, which was honestly fine. Pretty cool that next Thanksgiving I'll be home though😛

We had a lot of divisions this week! A division is where you go with another missionary to work for a couple of hours with someone new. I had one with my old comp and current house mate Elder Hendel, one with one of my Zone Leader Elder Jarman, and one with one of the APs Elder Aulla. It was great to be with all of them and try to talk to as many people as possible in the street. I learned a ton from them and it was a lot of fun! It's kind of scary to just talk to randos in the street but it is pretty fun actually

We did end up going to Denny's this week, just the day after Thanksgiving. Lowkey dropped a bag but it was pretty fun. There was some El Salvador basketball league on the TV that was pretty awful but it was still fun to watch. It wasn't no Bulls vs Bucks or anything but it was something I guess

On Friday night half of the zone leaders came over to the house and slept the night for a special leadership conference the next day early in the morning. It was super fun to see a lot of friends and have them all in the house

Yesterday we had dinner with a family and we had pupusas, so we made our own which was pretty fun. They were kinda not very pretty but it was fun to try😅 mark my words by the time I come home I will be a pupusa making machine

That was basically all for the week, but I'm very thankful for all of you! And I'm super thankful for this opportunity that I have to be a missionary and to serve our Heavenly Father. Thank you all for reading! Enjoy this holiday season for me!

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a good Christmas and that you'll enjoy New Years!  Christmas Eve and Christmas were pretty fun! We got to stay out late and ate a lot of food and also sang lots of Christmas Carols so it was pretty fun honestly! We went to a kind of far away part of our area the other day and we got to play soccer with these kids which was pretty fun. We also saw these like 5 random super little puppies which was pretty cute We had a musical number in sacrament where all of the missionaries sang and a family and Investigator of the church played instruments! It was really fun Yesterday it was raining so hard, the streets just completely flooded and we got soaked but our shoes were actually just filled with water it was a little bit uncomfortable hahaha but it was pretty funny I hope everyone has a good New Years!! Talk to you all next week and give me a little update! It's crazy to think that my entire 2024 was here in El Salvador but it was a lot of fun! And I...

Friday, September 1, 2023 - Mason Ramsey in Mexico City💯👀 (EMOTIONAL)

Hey peeps, Things here are starting to get a little more repetitive, but it's ok because my next email that will be sent will be from EL SALVADOR!!! I have about 5 days here left and then I'm off to the actual mission field!! I'm nervous but so so so excited to get going! To close out the Hunger Games at the CCM, we had determined that whoever in our district got picked to speak in church this past week would become Peeta, but sadly no one from our district got picked🤧 or so we THOUGHT. SURPRISE SECOND ROUND REAPING ELDER HALL IS OUR PEETA🦅 There are some Elders here who are going to serve in this rural place in Guatemala and they have to learn this language called xiatchi or something? I don't even know how to spell it, but one of the three bore their testimony in the language and the other said a closing prayer!! Super super cool stuff! Makes me glad I'm just learning spanish😅 We started doing only Spanish classes this week instead of a spiritual class in the m...

Hey everybody! Hope you are all doing well! This week was pretty solid, I'll get into it We had our english class as usual which was pretty fun on Wednesday I went to Santa Tecla for this mission leadership meeting (that I usually don't go to) so that was really fun to go and be back in Merliot and stay the night at my old house where I lived for 7 months, especially because all of my old housemates are still there so that was pretty cool. I also got to see a lot of mission friends which is always fun Other than that we got stranded in Versalles for a sec which was a little stressful, we resorted to hitchhiking because there was no bus but that is what happens I guess. We did eventually get home though A guy that me and Elder LaMarr talked to in the street got baptised yesterday which was super cool! He lives in another area but it was still cool to see that! Have a great week everyone!! Remember to say your prayers! Elder Bacon
