Well to all of you who are seeing this first off I want to say that I love you and congratulate those of you have served because it is hard and I haven't even left the MTC yet. The P-Day schedule is a 10 and 5 schedule. So the next time I write will be in another ten days. The food is great. All except breakfast. We usually get some watery scrambled eggs with no seasoning or flavor. I don't know why! Lunch is always great and always includes rice. Dinner is pretty good most every night but is usually smaller than lunch. Classes are tough when the only thing the teachers speak is spanish. JK. The teachers all speak pretty good english. I'm very thankfull that I have two of the best teachers in the CCM here. My time is about to run out so now I have to go. Until next time I write. 

Love, Elder Kalen Jones

Hello Family,

I miss you a whole bunch but I´m trying to not be homesick. Everybody is always talking about home, family, girlfriends. I just wanted to let everyone know that I miss them all so much and I´m always thinking of you guys but I´m trying not to be homesick.  I love you all and I´ll be writing again soon. The p day schedule is like ten days apart and then five or something like that. I love you all and I want individual emails from everybody. Kelly I wrote an email just to you. Girls you´re the greatest. Mom, Dad, I could never have ever wished for better parents and I´m glad God has blessed me with you two. Until next time. Hasta luego.

First Letter!

Hola familia.  I have reached the MTC, or CCM here, in safety.  The plane rides were long but enjoyable.  I can only write a short letter for now so i wanted to give a run down of my trip.  When I entered the airport I met a bunch of other Elders and Sisters going to Atlanta.  We arrived in the busiest airport in the world, and it was very, very busy.  We took a train to our next gate.  We then waited for five hours until our plane arrived.  At this point our numbers were narrowed to eight Elders.  We flew over Miami, Cuba, Jamaica, and finally into Bogata.  The air smells of dirt and diesel fuel.  We had no troubles getting through customs and finding our bags.  The air is crisp and a little cold.  We were given food when we entered the CCM last night and sent to bed.  This morning I over slept but made it to study on time.  We've been interviewed by Hermana Dyer and Presidente Dyer. I just received myown name tags.  I love you all and am having a very good time.  I will continue to write again. 

 Love you all.  

Love Elder Kalen Jones.
