I did it

Hello everyone! I hope you are doing well! I'm back after another week here in Peru! It's been crazy. I don't have a lot of time but I wanted to update you guys!

To start things off, we had transfers this week! And I did it this time guys, I actually did it. I'm officially training! After losing my first son and getting scammed by the mission president (kidding), I'm back where I was before. But it's been awesome! My new companion's name is Elder Webster and he's great! He's from Utah which is sweet. I finally got a gringo comp and it's awesome, very different experience for sure. But I'm enjoying life right now and I think this will be a fun transfer. 

Anyway, I feel like I'm really just getting the hang of things here in Peru, and time is going by kind of fast, which is a little sad actually. But I'm just trying to enjoy everything because I've heard that the mission flies. I'm sounding like I have a ton of time on the mission but I don't, I don't know but that has been on my mind this week. Anyway, I'm probably boring you guys a little. But yeah that was something random.

Not a lot really happened this week just lots of changes and getting to know my new companion! Sorry this is a super short email but I thought I'd update you on some stuff. 

Anyways I hope you all have a wonderful week and enjoy the cool weather. I love you all, thanks guys!

What's up everyone? What the heck is going on? I apologize to you all for much lack of actual good email. It's very hard to write a good one in my area haha I don't have much time and we only have one phone as a companionship. But anyways I wanted to give you guys an update on how things have been. This week we had our last interviews with our President. He's leaving in like 2 weeks and we're getting a new gringo one. It's definitely exciting but also very sad. I love our current President and he's made a huge impact on my mission. It'll for sure be like that with the new one though so it'll be great. It'll definitely be weird though talking to him in English. It's been a while since I've had an in person conversation with an American adult. Hopefully I don't say something wrong because that would be, let's just say, my worst nightmare. Speaking of a new president. They've been changing a ton of rules here and just basically r...

Buzzcut season

Hey everyone! Hope you all are doing well! I'm doing great! Just absolutely chilling out here in the slums. The boonies, if you will. It's been a pretty quick week once again, which seems to be going by faster and faster as time goes on. This week we had some good little interviews with the man himself. President. Who sadly only has about 2 months left as our president. But anyways, the interviews went great and we had some good food after at the mission home. Little chicken broaster with some tasty little platano cups filled with a little onion concoction. A definite Peruvian masterpiece. My son Elder Webster this week took the bold decision to get a buzzcut, and I was tempted to do the same. But I didn’t crumble under pressure this time. He also shared his testimony yesterday in Sacrament meeting and it was great, it was a proud father moment. They grow up so fast don't they.  Something crazy I forgot to mention last week is that when I was on exchanges, the carbon monoxi...

Hello everyone here I am again after another week! Its been an eventful 2 weeks and today I'll give you guys quick update on the past few since I've been lacking on the emails.  This week we had transfers! I'm staying in my area Vichayal, which I'm chill with. I got a new companion though his name is Elder Rodriguez and he's chill. It'll be a good transfer it seems like. The work here is going pretty good, recently it's been hard to find new people that will actually progress, but in these past couple days, we've found some so that's been a blessing. Either way if we have a ton of success or not this transfer it'll still be a good one. Last week we heard about a guy from France that lived in this little village called Rio Viejo. So we went and knocked on his door that was surrounded by this massive wall and gate. Some 50 year old white dude answered and said we could come in. Holy cow this place ws nice. He had this like mansion with a huge court...
