Our 1st Letter

Hola mi Familia!

This first day has been crazy, to say the least. My companion is Elder Purbaugh. He is a great guy and I like him already. We had a fireside with the MTC Presidencies which was good. Then we met our Branch Presidency and they helped us get adjusted. They are wonderful men. They made me district leader for the first half of my stay. It's a scary thing but I know the Lord will help me. The guys in my district and zone are really nice guys and will help me lots. I am glad that I am able to be here and anxious for the next couple of weeks. Thanks for being good exaples for me. I know I am in the place I need to be. I have to sleep soon so this one is short. Next one will be longer.
Love, Elder Stott (Derek)
