Happy New Year!

Christmas is now in the past...so time to move on to the new year!!!! We are doing great things here in Pacasmayo and we have a lot of plans for this next year! Thank you guys so much for the support! Now I can tell you a little about my week.

First we started off Christmas with an eating competition which was rather fun. I was against Elder males and in front of the entire mission ate half a cake!!! That was so much fun! Later that night I got to talk to my family!!! Which was maybe the best thing to see their faces! So for those of you who don`t know I have the best family in the world, from all of my aunts, grandpas, grandmas, uncles, cousins, parents, and siblings!!! I love them all so much and I`m sorry but they really are the best!! 

This week we had two amazing investigadors who are basically our mom`s here. One told us how much she loved us and how much she wished that we would be able to eat turkey for christmas dinner. She is the sweetest ever!! Then we had another investigador burst into tears as we were leaving her home. She was sad because we didn`t get to be with our families for the year and that we had to walk around in church clothes in the hot sun. They really treat us like thier own kids!!!

I love you guys so much and hope you had a wonderful christmas and a happy new year!!! Be safe and don`t let anyone tell you you`re less than a child of God!!!

I love you so much

IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME!!

Hola y Feliz Navidad!!!

I`ve had an awesome week here in peru and I hope you are all having a wonderful christmas too! I love the people down here and even though we don`t have all of the snow...WE have CHRISTMAS LIGHTS!!! It`s awesome to see all of the lights and trees.

So to start off the week I gave myself a haircut... UH OH!!! So it`s a lot shorter than normal, but it actually wasn`t that bad. I`m not a professional. So I look like I joined the military and every one of our investigadors has commented on my hair. It`ll grow back...

I recieved my christmas package and now our room is really festive!!! It`s so awesome!

We got to sing in the choir for hermana marler in trujillo! That was a blast. After the concert the craziest missionary in the mission somehow got a microphone and started singing feliz navidad. Uh oh... We sang with him and it was just a blast!

Also this week we had maybe the best funny experience ever! We were walking down the street with our landry bags and these two kids came running after us screaminig, PAPA NOEL!!! Which is Santa Clause. They took my clothes and I had to grab them and run for our room. It was so funny!!!

This week we get to celebrate the wonderful birth of our saviour Jesus Christ. He is the light of the world and he will save us all if we let him. He is the person with the most influence in the history of this world. He created this world and then after was the great I AM, or Jehova for moses and abraham. After he came and was born to mary, to save us from the sins of this world. Now he is calling again. Come to me and through your faith I`ll make you whole, is what he calls. Remember him this christmas and think of how much he loves you. He`s given you friends and family to be around you. And really he wants to give you eternal life. I know he will give this to you if you ask him and follow him.

Thank you all so much for your love and support! I love yàll so much! You are so amazing. Keep shining bright for the world and tell someone what christmas means to you. I love you guys so much!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! (I can say that because I`m papa noel) Love you guys so much!!!

Nos Vemos

Les amo!!!!

One week closer to Christmas!

Ok so we`re one week closer to the navidad and I`m so excited!!! SO excited that I forgot to say hi to start the email! I love all of you at home and I hope y`all are having a fantastic christmas! Don`t forget to pray for the people here in peru and in other situations that don`t have quite as much as you. Really, they can feel your prayers and I can feel your prayers for them!

Ok so this week started off  interesting when we had 8 prospective investigadors for baptism this month the 26th de deciembre. But after sunday and complications we have about 4 prospective at this point. We`re working really hard with them and I think we can accomplish this awesome goal!! I love them all so much and I know you guys would think that they are just amazing.

One of the coolest experiences this week was the oppurtunity that we had to teach a family. WE taught with the spirit and they really felt it. The mom was just looking at us and she called us the angels!!! That made me pretty happy. I know that the missionary effort is so real and that through the spirit we look different to others. It`s made me think a lot more about the scriptures. Maybe we really do have angels today and we just don`t recognize them in our daily lives. Maybe because they`re just ordinary people we don`t see the help that they`ve really gave us and where they really come from (Heavenly fATHER) Because really there are angels and I know that so many of you are angels in my llife.

As you guys have been having colder and colder weather it`s just been getting hotter here in peru. Man but I have had some prayers answered and the clouds are coming and I`ve been so happy. We`ve been getting some shade. WE`re working so hard with all of the people and we just ask for some more of your prayers. So go out there be an angel for someone and just be HAPPY! It`s really easier. Trust me

Les amo!!!

A missionary life for me!

Hola muchachos! ¿Como Estan?

Down here in peru we`re having a blast!!! I love the people down here and I think they`re just amazing. Ok so stories!! To start off the week last monday we were walking through a dark field and there were all of these dogs every where!! It was crazy my companion and I had our rocks and were ready to go into combat! And during all of this, we were walking and wham!! A laundry line just about decapitated me. My plauque fell off and yeah. Don`t worry we found it later.

This week we`ve been working really hard and we`ve had a lot of investigadors in the capilla! I think my favorite thing that I`ve done is change the lyrics of songs. To maroon5`s sugar. ¨rosa, por favor, venga a la capilla hoy!¨It`s so much fun! I love the people down here they`re just the best.

So we have two baptismal dates this month! WE`re pretty excited. One of them is a 15 year old boy who is just awesome!! He is so funny and  one of my favorite things is how peaceful he is. He is never down or frustrated. What has happened has happened, is what he told to us this week. AWW, we should have had two baptisms this week, but the parents of the kids said that they have to wait until they are 15 years old. NOOOO! Right now they`re 10 and I won`t be here in a month or two let alone five years. It`s been really hard.

This week we`ve had the oppurtunity to work a lot with RM^s. It`s so cool to work with them. We have two Rm`s in our area and they always love to help. They`re really some of the coolest people on the earth.

This week people have been so nice to us. One of our investigadors called us her angels. And that was so nice. The people down here in Peru are just perfect! I love them all, and it`s hard to watch them struggle. I had the oppurtunity this week to play jump rope with some kids in the street, and that was so much fun. I know I don`t have a white christmas down here in Peru, but I have an awesome christmas!! The christmas lights are all up and I`m so excited for christmas. I love you guys so much!!!

Les amo!
