Wednesday, November 29, 2023 - They Traded me for Picks😭🫨

HEY EVERYONE!!

First and foremost, I am getting transferred to San Salvador!! Kind of crazy, I will be getting a new companion tomorrow and leaving my area and zone and going to the Los Héroes zone! My new area is called Miramonte, no idea what the specifics of the area are like but I'm excited!! Elder Tripp (my current companion) is also training again!! So I am getting another brother in the mission!!! I'm pretty excited about that too but they really booted me from my area just for a new missionary to take my place, how rude😮‍💨

It's been a long time since my last email and a lot has happened! One cool thing is we put Sara on date for baptism!! She is the mom of a recent convert here who we baptised last transfer, so it's super cool that her mom is ready now too!! 

Thanksgiving was this week which was super fun, we went to a member's house with the other Elders and it was really cool!! I also got to talk to THE Mia Lau because she was with my family on Thanksgiving, so that was super super fun!!!

This member here keeps on saying I'm getting fat and calling me "gordito" so looks like next transfer we need to take exercise time a little more seriously😅

We also did a finding activity with tables, pamphlets, Books of Mormon, and 5 missionaries!! It was super cool to be contacting the street and it was really successful! Super fun!! 

Transfers mean a lot of things coming to an end. I am leaving my comp, who has taught me so much and has been so kind to me as I have struggled through this first while of the mission. We had 1 missionary in my district leave to the office and another go back home, and I'm obviously leaving my ward here and all of my investigators. It will be a big adjustment, but I think it will be really fun and an experience for me to grow and meet some new people, even though I'm going to miss all the missionaries and people here so much! But I am so greatful for my time here in Versailles and am excited for this next chapter!!!

Love you all, keep me updated or email me if you have any other questions about transfers!!!

Also there is a problem with Google Photos where I can't update my album, but next week!!!

Monday, December 30, 2024 - Puppy Army🐶 and a New Year

Image
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
