If you don't mind, please send this message to Brianna.
Hey there Bri! So exciting news...my mission president is now allowing us to email friends for 20 minutes each week so we can now correspond!
Long time no see/talk! Well, yeah, and it is going to be a long time for sure. How have things been going for you? I hope my mom has been sending my emails to you so know what I have been up to. If not, ask her to send a few or all of them if you so desire.
The mission is great! I am loving being here. I have great experiences every day and I am learning how to be a better servant of the Lord every day too. Like I said, I think you will get a better idea by reading my emails...
But how are things for you? Are you getting ready for school? How were your last experiences in Spain? I would love an update every once in a while when you get a chance...until then, God Speed!

And this one to Brian Fernandez...
Elder Fernandez,
Como esta elder!? Mucho tiempo sin vernos! Como le ha ido en los ultimas semanas/meses. No hemos hablado en mucho tiempo. Actualmente, estoy en la mision y disfrutandolo bastante! Estoy aprendiendo cosas cada dia y me siento tan agredecido por la oportunidad servir.
Anyhow, I thought it would be nice to keep in touch from time to time and share experiences. I can now email 20 minutes or so every week to friends. If you can do the same, that would awesome! Que Dios le bendiga!

Anyway, thanks Mom, and we will talk next week.
