Que mas?

Como estan todos?

So this week was crazy! I don't know if I talked about the Noche De Colores activity we were going to have this last Saturday, but its all good…because we didn't have it! It was fast Sunday, since we have stake conference next Sunday…but before the activity we were going to have the baptism of 3 investigators! The problem with that was we only had 1 come, Edu! He is such a fantastic little kid, and is going to be so awesome! He shared his little testimony and it was the best!

However… Shandu and Shande did not come. The two brothers who we have been working really hard with, just didn't go! We still have not found them, and want to know what happened. We do know that their mom and sister Sasha are lying to us. It was obvious when I saw Shandu in the window of one of the 3 houses they are always in, even though they said no one was home! Anyway, we can't find them, but will try and figure that out! Defiantly a trial of faith! But more of a trial of patience! Haha!

We have been walking like crazy! We have so many houses, and a lot of potential baptisms coming up for this next month, and hopefully Shandu and Shande are two of those!

We have been eating everything lately! We don't go hungry until Sundays! We have been doing a lot of fasting then! haha!  Still a lot of Potatoes! haha! I would say I DON’T have potatoes maybe only once every two weeks! They always slip them in! It’s awesome! Lomo Saltado... Lo maximo!!

I really love to read in Doctrine and Covenants! I have done a little reading in all of the scriptures, and its really interesting! The old testament is funny! If you want to feel good about the number of commandments we have to follow verses the law of Moses….Wow! Poor guys! 

One interesting thing is there are so many Testigos de Jehova, (Jehovas witness) here... They are everywhere! It’s funny because everyone thinks we are testigos!  We have only had the opportunity to talk to 3 groups of theirs. The Elders here like to try and prove something to them, and it is funny, but not productive at all! Crazy Elders... 

It’s fantastic here! Not much going on that is new! 

Thanks for reading!

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...

No Se

Hola todos! So, the first thing I have to say today is that Internet in Peru is not the quickest, or the most reliable! And even worse when the church program doesn't work!  Anyway! We are doing just dandy here in Montenegro 4! We are so high up that the climate literally has changed! We get rain every once in a while, not too much, but enough! It is not too hot, but everyone gets a little sweaty here! It really changes with a gate that leads into this other province!  I forgot everything I have said, so If I repeat I am sorry... We have a member who cooks for us! Almost whatever we want, we end up getting! She loves to bake, try new things, and is such a sweet, amazing lady! She is also mega strict, and has a heart attack every time we do something! She is always stressed out! When we wash the dishes after lunch, she watches us, and if we turn the water on too much she shouts, if we don't turn it off while we are scrubbing, she shouts! If we throw away any sc...

Lima Peru, Here I Come!!!

Sorry for the cheesy title, but I can't wait! I leave this next Monday to head on out to Peru! I leave this Monday at 12:30 AM, so technically Tuesday, but we leave the MTC at 8:00 Monday! I already have my filter water bottle!  This last week has been interesting! It really has all of the sudden turned into week one again! We are going over every part of Preach my Gospel, like we did on week one, and we are learning how to start our first lessons... Like we did on week one! We are learning how to make a plan for a lesson... Like week one... But it's all good stuff! And much more fun now that I can talk in much better Spanish than in week one! That’s probably why we are doing it all over! Haha! We really lucked out on with all of our teachers and leaders at the CCM! Presidente Lyons again has been such an amazing example! His wife has been super sick, and is going into surgery this week. He really appreciates all of the support he gets! He is so busy… he has to help hi...
