November

4 weeks go by fast in the mission, but 4 months! I can't believe it!

We have been working hard, and doing all we can!

Honestly nothing happened this week! We have just been chugging away!

For P-day this morning, we played some futbol with our zone, and we did that last week too! It is almost as if I am in South America or something! But, it’s fun!

We have transfers coming up this night, and you will get to hear about it next week! I hope I stay in my same area! I love teaching these people, and It is going to be hard to leave!

Our two baptisms that didn’t happen: we haven’t had a good talk with them. Elder Mendez claims they are ready, but we are going to work with them! We just need time and to talk with their parents a little bit more! I want them to really be ready.

We have been doing a lot of divisions with members, and it has been super awesome! We leave with jovenes  (young boys) and adults!


This is going to be a sad email, but this keyboard doesn't work and the internet is mega slow! But thank you for reading, and I hope you all have a fantastic week!


Notes from Mom:  
The computer issues this week were brutal. We usually have a good email conversation back and forth, but the internet just wouldn't cooperate. That and his keyboard wouldn't type some of the letters a lot of the time.  

I heard from the sweet lady he stays with, and he has a new companion! He is staying in the same place, which we are super happy about. He just didn't feel like he was finished with what he was there to do, so this is good news.  Plus, we LOVE Mama Luz and the updates she sends me... so I at least have that through Christmas. HA!

No Time

Elder Ball didn't have very much time to email today.  They changed a form that they need to do their reports on, and it took him a lot longer than expected to get through it. But! I have pictures! He is doing great! He loves his companion, they are working hard, and he is very excited that it is December!  Lot's of service projects this month and he is looking forward to that! He is headed to the hospital today so they can (hopefully) remove some warts that have grown on his hands while there.  He has tried about everything to get them gone... He first showed them to me on MOTHERS DAY so, I think it's time they get taken care of! He is happy!  And that makes ME happy.

My First Llama!!!

Wow! This week was definitely Peruvian! I saw my first llama! It was a stylish llama might I add! It was fun! We saw him during our Zone P day, which was a blast! We went to the stake center and played some Fútbol! Yea... I can´t play soccer... Haha! But I´m going to learn. I have to, since even the kids here are crazy good! After playing soccer, we played some Werewolf, which is Mafia, but of course in Spanish. During games, Latinos tend to be really really energetic! I am having a great time! I am totally adjusted! Just, not the language... But you know, little details! It´s amazing to be able to help teach in the lessons, now that I know how to do more than say just my testimony! I do really well at understanding what people are saying...The only problem is when people talk to me! Then I understand nothing! And even less when people ask me how my Spanish is, because I never know if they are saying:    Do you know Spanish good? Your Spanish is really good...

We need more INCAS!

Hey howdy hey! So this week we started off with another District Monopoly, I didn't win this time... Sadness! But we had some Family home evenings, and it was all great! Then on Tuesday we cleaned up pigeon poop from one of our investigators Abi! We found some baby pigeons, along with one big dead one!  But the rest of the week was pretty normal! We spent one whole day knocking on doors, and found maybe 1 person, but we still haven't had an opportunity to teach! Haha! So a lot of people, but not too much success here!  I have been drinking Mate! It is the best! It’s an argentine thing, and I am thinking of buying myself a mate! Its super good like a bitter tea, but you can add sugar! We go and drink it with Junior before we have to sleep! It’s a fun way to sit and talk!  We had 12 investigators in the church this week! Lots of people needed to attend and didn't! So we have plenty of work! Really it’s just teaching the same lessons, and then helping with...
