Luis. had a wonderful fhe with him and la familia cubas last week. he brought us some delicious and famous cheese and rosquitas from his trip to cajamarca. super tasty!! 

Cesar. doing a bit better, but not really.said he was coming with us to church, but when we came to pick him up, his bro said that he went with abuelita to hers:( classic. 

Jose Oswaldo, dad of one of the temple architects. doing good, we left him with the Book of Mormon to read the intro and unfortunately couldn´t make it to church cause he came back from a trip and was super tired:( 

We´re continuing to work with Michel, Julito, Karla, mamma transito, and estefanie. 

Gloria came to church yesterday and gave the closing prayer in RS!

Lili and carmen are doing really well!!!

We got a call from one of the office elders, who serves in our ward that a member was wanting to meet with us to introduce a family. REFERENCES FROM MEMBER=GOLDEN. he doesn´t live in trujillo, but was here for work. so we met up with him and had a great lesson with a family of 5. couldn´t make it to church yesterday cause her son had to go to the hospital, sick with ashma. but we have an appt tomorrow!! pappa roger´s gonna come with us.

We had a wonderful ward activity this week, noche de concierto. all of the missionaries from my zone sang together and LOADS of people sang and played instruments. it was a huge hit!! we did lots of work to get ready for it and it was all worth it!! 

We were invited to help out the mission prep class in los institutos in Centro and it was awesome!! I was surprised how many youth were there, the spirit was so strong! my companion and I were in a group of about 10 students and we taught how to teach a lesson, verify commitments, etc. then we split them up into groups to practice teaching. it was such an incredible experience!!! then afterwards, elder haake and my companion shared their testimonies. we all sang called to serve and it was beyond words, incredible. I saw a few JAS (YSA) from el bosque and it was so exciting to see some of my favorite hermanitas that always went out to teach and work with us. 

just whippin´up a little fried goodness from CHile at obispo´s!

Had an awesome alzar la voz with a bunch of leaders in the ward, knocking on doors in the ward boundaries and inviting families to come to church. 

Love you all tons and promise to write more next week!!!!
