Hello everyone,
It sounds like you all are very busy, that is good. Mom I am so proud of you, you are such a good scout Mom. Maybe you’ll want to work at Balboa. :>)
Well this week was good for me to. I got a new companion on Wednesday. I felt kind of sad when my old companion left because it was a fun fast change but I feel more focused now that he left. My comp is quiet and new and does not know the area.
I’m happier now and talking a lot more with everyone. I love talking to people in the street and planning activities with the wards. Things seem to be looking up. We’re finding a lot of families to teach but everyone here just lives with each other with 5 kids so they require more work.
I don’t know if I told you about Emily we found her awhile ago, she just got married. We started teaching them but the husband changed his work and was working 7 days a week so they were not progressing. We went by their home last night and her Husband quit his job and is thinking more about his family and God. I feel so happy in their home and seeing the miracles of the gospel at work.
Times up more next week.

Hey family,
Thanks for the Pictures. This week was good; we got to go to the Stadium in downtown Lima to pack semis with food, water and clothes for the earthquake victims. It was just our zone; we made lines and just started filling the trucks. We filled two trucks and a big semi with sugar, rice and milk too. It was so fun just to go out and give service and use my arms, it was tiring but I felt revitalized after. Afterwards we went to a little restaurant and had lunch.
That night when we got back we went to an appointment. I was teaching about baptism and had asked if she had any questions. She asked me how I felt after my baptism. The spirit really hit me and I shared with her what Dad told me after I was baptized, while we were changing. He said that right now I was perfect and cleansed from my sins. It is so true that you treasure the things of G
od up in your mind and he will give them to you in the very hour that you need them.
Saturday was really good too; I carried this solid wooden door up a mountain for a member family. We are teaching her son who is not baptized. We were on our way to teach him and his mom stopped us and asked for our help. I put the door on my back and started up the mountain and it was steep. The member we had with us was kind of holding the back. It was a cool experience.
Also, you can tell Kirk that Punks are not dead in Peru. I passed this guy a week ago that had a jacket on and on the back it said "Punks not Dead".
I love you so much

My week was good I’m back in Lima the city. It’s about ten minutes outside of my old area Libertadores. It is really cold, I am freezing most of the time but it should warm up in a month.
My new house is rad, our room is nice. The family reminds me of a young George Lopez family they have one son. He reminds me of a kid from a movie, he is really nice. They have giant pictures of him all over the house, if that tells you anything.
The food is so good they have a maid that cooks chicken, potatoes, white rice and homemade hot sauce. We had pizza the other night and chicken because some nights she doesn’t cook, so she just buys our food from a restaurant. I was so happy to eat cereal with milk the other morning. No, I did not get my package, hopefully tomorrow in zone meeting.
I am so happy to read about your new calling, you are going to be amazing. You are always so dedicated to your callings. I am thinking about when I used to watch you prepare so diligently for your activity days girls.
Until next week,
Love you all.

Hey I really enjoyed your letter it was perfect.
A barbecue buffet sounds so good you would laugh if you could see the stuff I’m eating here, but I eat it because I’m so hungry. Since it was father’s day the husband of our pension was home and he barbequed chicken and some kind of other meat it was good but not filling.
This past week was ok for p-day we went to some more runes that over looked the beach and then we went back and just relaxed in our zone leader’s house. The week was ok I spoke in sacrament meeting and taught the lesson in Sunday school for the young men young women it is not that big of a deal because their is only ten of them and I showed a video. I still get really frustrated when I can’t say or speak exactly the way I want to. But I know that the spirit helps me so much with the language when I’m sitting in front of investigators.
This past Friday was really nice I did a comp change with my zone leader in his area. He’s from Idaho and a good missionary it was so nice to work with a comp that I could trust and learn good things from. He speaks good Spanish and him and I share some of the same ideas about the work. His pension is the best in the whole mission she owns a pizza restaurant. For dinner we ate pizza and hamburgers.
We’ll be going to Lima this week for a zone conference and to say good bye to President Morris. I love you all so much I hope you have a great week.
Love

My new area is really cool it is two hours outside of Lima so I am way north. It is really cold and foggy every morning. My area is Pativilca the closest town is Barranca. There is one main highway that links to Lima and the northern cities that goes up through the town.
The beach is not to close but it is kind of a beach town this morning on the way to breakfast I saw a car pass with a bunch of boards on the roof. We eat avocado every morning for breakfast with bread and butter with hot water coco powder and sugar. The other day I was so hungry I bought two dozen rolls and gave four to my comp and ate the rest. I got another needy comp but I like my area and he helps more with my Spanish.
The people are a little crazier out here then in Lima. We are in a branch there were 20 people at church on Sunday. I am learning with my comp that if you have something and they don’t it’s theirs also. The branch president wanted my camera to take pictures of some lady that got a wheel chair from the church and I said look this camera has all my mission pictures on it so I went with him to take the pictures and helped him put them on the computer.
Before I forget give this scripture to Stephanie Alma chapter 37 verses35 37 I found it the other morning and thought it was good just replace son with daughter.
It sounds like you guys are having a lot of fun I love to hear from you every week. I love you and I will talk to you in a week got to go.
