 Eventful week...we had 7 friends come to church. We have some great new friends that we're teaching. The area is super big and usually we hit all the little suburb towns in our area each week. But now we don't travel as much because all of our good friends live in the same area. One of the friends we've been meeting with has a daughter struggling in english class and I've been her tutor. Its a struggle trying to explain things in spanish. 


Multi Zona on Tuesday was a special time. Hermana Byeres gave a really good talk. Got to see my MTC comp and goat Elder Felix for the first time since we got to Peru. Did Intercambios on friday with Elder Ericksen. We woke up at 5:15 to hike the gigantic sand dune by their house. You can see all of Ica. I felt like to throw up once we got to the top. Classic pday...ate some  shwarma, played soccer and volleyball.

Love you all!

Week 1 in MTC

Finished week one of the MTC and dang it was good, and I knew it would be. Imma start out by saying that everyone has been crapping on this food. But in reality, it’s quite enjoyable for now. Even though it may get the stomach begging for dear life, but that’s alright. If I don’t put on weight here, I’m a lost cause. The Grand Canyon BYU Creamery ice cream is fire, aka gram slam for those with ball knowledge. Spanish is coming fine. Starting full immersion tomorrow. Not being able to speak English in class is gonna be a real challenge but also a huge learning opportunity. By far the best thing of all is my district. I’m blessed to have the best district of all time. Where all so different, it’s like we’re the Avengers. Teachers are chillers. They’re patient and knowledgeable, unlike how it is in school. The MTC is constant laughing with my district; nobody can ever keep a straight face. My companion and district leader, Elder Felix, is cool. He kinda keeps us in line. I got Elder Lowth...

  Didn't send an email last week because my phone got stolen in a taxi. Got swiped from my pocket. Luckily that was the only thing stolen. My new companion Elder Montiel is the goat. He's super patient with my broken spanish. But i feel bad for him because he was supposed to open a new area in the Vraem region of Peru, which is in the Amazons, but now he's stuck with me. Its super dangerous since that's the area of Peru that's been home to terrorists since the 80's. Its where all the cocaine in Peru comes from.  There's a bunch of narcos over there. Only Latinos will be able to go serve there for at least the next year. It will be the first jungle area in mission. The area is supposed to open next transfer.  Today for pday and we played soccer in the morning and pickle ball with Presidente and Hermana Byers in the afternoon. They set up a pickle ball court inside the chapel. We are super blessed to have a stake center with AC. Pres is here in Ica because we...

  Wow, I had such an amazing week. Friday was exchanges and I was once again with ZL Elder Huff.  It was my first time being in a different area and I got to spend some time in the Ica central. Carnival is going on right now. Its not a very big celebration in Ica, but it was cool to see, but sadly only for 2 seconds because Elder Huff did not enjoy the crowds. He's as locked in as a missionary can get which is good since I can learn from his ways. Our friend's baptism yesterday was a success. She has bone cancer, which is very tragic, and it made the baptism a whole lot harder. I didn't baptize her but I was still in the font to help out with the process. It was a very spiritual moment for everyone. I've never seem her so happy. Love you all!
