Family home evening in which the husband kept rambling on and on. and
on. it was hilarious. and cristofer with his family, whose less active

the streets in a stroller.
On an intercambio, me fui al alcero Y hna. manwill estaba trabajando en mi area del carmen con la hna. farley. fue chevere!!

Hey happy almost October!! I honestly cannot believe how crazy fast and
scary time is just SLIPPING by!! its craaaazy. this week was
JAM-PACKED!! here´s some of the highlights:
Last pday,
as a district we just enjoyed walking around and roaming centro for a
bit after internet. there´s some cool shops that are in town, so I
bought a little somethin for hunter´s bday. it was chill. took some pics
on the board-walk by the beach, it was suuuper windy. and bought
amazing tres leches de CHOCOLATE at plaza vea, a super market.
We
had intercambios with the hnas. asignadas over our area. i went to el
alcero with hna. mathis and hna. farley came to work in my area with
hna. manwill. its always fun and interesting to see a different point of
view and see how other missionaries work and teach. had a little
miracle with a grandmother of a recent convert that normally despises
the missionaries. talked a bit about family search with my booklet that
im working on getting done. it was great!! and it was beautiful to run
on the boardwalk of a beach in her area. although its filthy and filled
with trash, lol its still pretty to see the ocean!
And
when i got back to my area, hna. manwill told me that she had to head
off for Ecuador the very next day for her visa. haha crazyyyy!! so hna. Roxana, remember her?? nuestra alma rescate pues!! was my companion for
the 2 days that my companion that was traveling. it reminded me of how
training was, patience and love. haha except at least they´ve got a
little under their belt from the mtc! it was a total blast though. she´s
actually been thinking about serving a mission, so it was great cause
this gave her a real-deal hands-on experience and taste of mission
life!!
We had fun opportunities to give
service with some investigators, painting the window frame and bagging
bread. and I loved her beautiful and pure testimony that she shared with
all. it was really awesome working with her! poor thing could n´t really
sleep both nights cause she´s not used to sleeping so early and there
was a 15th bday fiesta in the neighborhood. with a band. classic Peruvians. but it was really wonderful!! I'm so grateful for her desires
to serve the Lord.
Speaking of almas rescates,
mirtha came with us to visit a less-active in the ward!! it was so
awesome!! a now active member to help a lost sheep in the pasture. I
just love hermana mirtha, she´s wonderful! and received her
patriarchal blessing yesterday!! isn´t that just incredible?!?!
We taught delmi, the dad/husband of the family that we´ve been visiting and
have been helping with painting their house. he´s actually been reading
the Book of Mormon and when he read with us he was like narrating it. I
had to try reallyl hard not to crack up laughing !! and when he said
that its hard to find the time to read is, we works as a taxi driver, i
said to always have it in your taxi!! i shared that mom always has the
scriptures in the van for McKay, grant, adn rex to read in between and
on the way to different activities!!
Eduardo´s
doing really well!! almost 1 month ya and has been keeping the word
of wisdom!! and he´s preparing to go to the temple in November with the
ward!!!
I completed my goal of reading ALL of
the general conference talks from April in Spanish, in preparation to
watch all of it this time (next week) in Spanish!! it took months, but I
got it done!! we saw the women´s conference yesterday and it was so
wonderful, I´m SO excited for conference time again!! its the BEST!!!
Also
im trudging along my way in the book of mormon, in alma 22 with my goal
of finishing...well yeah...before you know when:) i absolutely LOVE el
libro de mormon!! esta cambiando mi vida, de verdad!!!
Love you all more than you´ll ever know, your in my prayers always!!!
