Hola!
So today is the 28th of
July. Which is Independence Day in Peru. Woo! It’s cool that today is P day
cause some members of the ward invited us to a barbeque and after internet
we`re gonna go eat some delicious barbequed anticucho (cow heart) yummmm.....
:) Its actually super delicious. I`ve been craving it for a while :)
Thanks for all the info
from home! I`m glad the family finally got to see just how crazy Abby really is
;) hahaha. Love you Miss Abby!
It’s been a good week!
This week we had a work visit and I got to go to another area for the day and
work with Hna Goulding who is like..one of my best friends in the mission. We
were in the CCM together and are so much alike it’s almost ridiculous. So it
was a good time :)
We`re still working with
our new investigators and are hoping to have lots of baptisms in August! Our
ward really is so great. Tomorrow the stake president and his wife are going to
accompany me and my companion for a couple hours to visit some references and
less active members. We are also taking advantage of the holidays and are going
to have one or two young women with us each day.
There is a really sweet
old lady in our ward who is 90 years old. She can`t go to church anymore for
her health so we visit her during the week to share a scripture and sing a
hymn. She is so so sweet and her daughter who lives with her is special, and
always gives us the biggest hugs when we come over. She is a pioneer of the
church here in Peru! She was baptized back in the 60s when the church was brand
new and always tells us about when she helped build the first stake center in
Lima. It’s cool cause we`ve been there! Its where we have had the meetings when
the apostles come. She is always so grateful when we come over and whenever we
need to lift our spirits we visit her and feel so much better :)
Yesterday I celebrated
my half birthday with la familia Sandoval cause I won`t be here for my
birthday. One of the pictures I`m sending is me with them :)
I didn`t leave myself
much time to write a good email, lo siento!
Just know I love you
all, I am doing really great, and the church is true!
Mom, could you send me a
new hymn book in English? Maybe two? Just the small cheap ones. I gave mine
away to mi hija :P
Viva la Peru! Love you
all!
