Week 15 - Jamaica - Yallahs

 February 27, 2017

Will add recording when I get it transcribed.


 This is the only picture for this week - the four missionaries in Yallahs all live together and they moved into a nice house this week.  Eric said he will send more pictures next week - he said the internet connection was not working well today.  This is not a picture of Eric - it is one of the other Elder's that lives there.

Week 14 - Jamaica - Yallahs

From: Eric Joseph Call
Dear Momma,
Stop working so much!!!  I love the new furniture it looks soooo nice!  Sounds like when I get home everything is gonna be pretty different huh?  I'm so sorry to hear your sick as well.  I hope you get feeling better soon.  I'm doing very good and am good to go!  Elder Boyer has had some allergy issues but nothing that could stop us!  The work here in Yallahs is going very well and it sucks because of how fast time is going. We are already into the second week of my third transfer!!  Also, Mom that is a lot of writing to do.  I would prefer you to send the recording for your own benefit unless you like writing it up then you can do it if you want.  Have you still been sending it to my missionary friends and the ones here in Jamaica?  I love you very much though mom and just want you to know how grateful I am for my family!
love 
Elder Eric Call
Dear pops,
Wow that's awesome how fast the snow went away way cool get back to beast mode and get that bike out!  Here in the mission a rumor is spreading that they might be taking bikes away and just giving us a taxi stipend for when we travel a long ways, but for the most part we would walk.  I think I would like that it would keep me slimmed down!  Sounds like the usual Call house having all the kiddos over -  I love that.  Also it is funny you ask that question because I just spoke this Sunday on Elder Devn Corrnish's talk in Conference titled "you can make it."  I also talked a lot about the Armour of God and Captain Moroni and God's plan will make us all spiritually powerful and have authority.  Sounds like you are all doing well though and I'm very happy to hear that have a great day!
Love Elder Call

This is jack fruit. Super weird but you eat the yellow stuff and it tastes like Starbursts.

Eric Joseph Call 
I'm doing well momma and glad to hear you made it back safe from Kentucky!  Looks like you all had a lot of fun - soooo cool!  I love you all so much.  I don't have much to talk about this week, but there is some in my group email.  I'm trying a bunch of new fruits today. I bought something called jack fruit I'll send a picture of it next week.  I do not have food poisoning so that's a bonus!  I'm doing very well it's been a challenging week, but ya I'm just keepin on!  I miss all of you a lot like that video Kelsey sent me of Andrew's animal sounds melted me I broke down and cried, but that's okay I'm out here workin!  Love ya momma

Week 12 - Jamaica - Yallahs

Eric Joseph Call
Dear Mom
Sounds like a crazy week for all of you!
To answer your questions I email Kelsey almost every week and I missed a couple weeks with Bummer but I'm going to do better.  I have not got my garments yet, but soon come hahaha.  Also I will send you the list probably next week.  On that note I'm doing great and have had quite the week here in Yallahs.  I learned I'll be staying with Elder Boyer for my third transfer so that is awesome!  It is pretty rare here in Jamaica to stay with your companion for 3 transfers unless you are off the Island.  I'm very happy to stay here though and can't wait to see what is in store for us here.  I love getting your pictures especially of the Elk that was great!!  Also of Ava and Andrew that is the best also.  I haven't however seen any of The other rugrats, but soon come ya?  I wish you all safe travels to Kentucky sounds like it will be fun!  I flew into the Dallas airport ya know before going to Miami that was were we had lunch with Nicole and Sunny and Dash.  I hope you are very good and doing well and always reading your scriptures at night.  I don't know what I would do without the Book of Mormon the testimonies of the Prophets are just amazing and any one who truly puts themselves into the scriptures could never deny the truth in every word written.  I'll talk to ya next week!
Love Elder Call
