Mom, and daddy, thanks for your letters this week. Its not been the easiest transfer for me, but i love reading your letters. they help a ton!!! oh if you ever decide to send a package in the near future... i dont have mascara, and its SUPER expensive in quillabamba. also, mod bod shirts at some point would be welcomed. but if not, i will survive, and even still be happy. .)
Hey family!!! Wow, its been an interesting week. Conference was sooo great! all our mouths dropped with the news of the age change. They announced the 18 year old thing here a few months ago, so the big news was more the 19 year old rule. wow, my mouth dropped, and stayed there for like, 5 minutes. i couldnt believe it, oh how i wanted to serve when i was 19!!! We are the last generation on the mission before recieving the new revelation, so pretty much we are the last of the un prepared hahaha. after us, begins the newbies who are more prepared. lol. but it will be awesome. i think its brilliant. plus, i know that this is the time and the place for me.
Wow, thank thank thank you mom for telling me about jill! nobody has given me any details!!! i am so happy for her, she is all married now and what not. VACAN. and yay for the ring ceremony in june!!! yeah it has to be after the 27th. because i leave peru the 26th, but its like a day or two just to get back. man, good for her. And rach is going to do the pics, eh? thats awesome. RAchel does a good job.
THis week, i was soooo tired. there are 4 of us who live together, and so when one gets sick, everyone gets sick. we all got a bad cold, and were so exhausted, i have never been so tired in my life. We all 4 share the same bedroom and everything. one morning, my comp asked me if i slept okay. i said, "yeah, i was out like a rock" she said, "really?" and then told me i was contacting in my sleep in spanish, and committing people to baptism, and then stood up to the window and was looking at my arms, and then got back in bed, and fell asleep with my arms straight up. how strange hahahaha. i was definitly not awake for any of that. so cool.
<our investigators... mas o menos. they all are like 16 or 17 and need permision to get baptized but we cant find their parents. The only one who is 19 years old went on a trip to valle sagrado for the weekend so that was a bummer. we just cant figure out how to get them to progress!!! its sooooo frustrating! but we keep working. i guess i cant always be the one to reep, i have to sew as well and learn patience. But we keep working and praying, and hopefully we are touching hearts and preparing them so that soon they can accept the gospel. The more i study this gospel, the more clear it becomes and i love it more and more everyday. its soooo LOGICAL. it just makes sense. anyone who says otherwise is mistaken, and clearly has not studied it well.
Welp, time to go. love you all! tune in monday for next weeks report.
