Misión Perú Lima Norte

Hey everyone!

So we are doing just dandy here in Black Mountain! (Montenegro) We have a lot of baptisms, investigators in the church on Sunday, and everyone is just happy!

We have 3 baptisms lined up for this Saturday and we are visiting with them every day! So that is great! I learned also that my convert Yaquibel is going to move in a few months! But she is still doing just great! And same with Caesar! He is still just super happy and his family is active again!

This week was all in other areas! We did a blitz in our area to start off the week with the Sisters. We contacted, and found some new people. Then we did it in another area, and then again with the Hermanas! Another day I ended up going with the Zone leader to another area, and then swapped companions again, and worked in Cristo Rey! It is the craziest area ever! It is one long road with houses that shoot up the sides of the Mountain! It is like out of a star wars movie!

We have been doing all we can to find new people and work with the members! There are always more people to find, and references to give here! For P-days we just play Soccer! But this last week we were able to play Laser Tag as a Zone. It was mega hot and tiny but awesome! Then we rode on a little kiddi coaster! It was super funny!

We helped with a wedding and baptism of the area next to ours! They are super great! It is mega hard to marry people here! It costs money, you have to find their birth certificates, then they have to go to the center of lima to do more papers, and it is just hard! So it was amazing that they were able to get married because there was a Valentines day special this Wednesday!

Everything is awesome here, and we never stop seeing small miracles!

Thank you!

Hasta luego!

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...
