August 6

Ya I'm just going to print these letters and read them later haha. but
get this, one day this week we were given rice in the morning rice for
lunch and rice for dinner...Huancayo..

Oh first off thank uncle Lane for you letter cool to hear of the
progress of the temple and your service! congrats.

So we had a hard but interesting week. we finally found some new
people. one lives next door to the bishop and is pretty interested but
works late for entertainment type stuff for parties so he is too tired
to come to church. that's our hardest part of the work of the Lord.
getting people to church ha.  He is just a kid of 13 or so but church
will be hard for him.

Also a hermana of  28 years and a 2 year old boy. she isn't married to
her paraja though. That always happens to us. she has difficulty raising
her son mostly solo her paraja works a lot!  but i think a sister in
the ward would help her there is a friend in the ward who raising her son
alone too.

We ask for miracles like everyday in our area and i think we were given
one this week. A sister in the ward, her niece and sister came to
town. the mom is in active mostly because of where she lives, there isn't a
church, she likes the feeling in church , the mom and daughter came
yesterday, but the daughter is not baptized yet and she wants to be
baptized this week and her mom wants the same.

The parents of one of our converts named Alex, his parents are all but
ready for baptism this week the dad is awesome always attentive and
understands what to do. but the mom always ends up asleep. They only have
time at 8 in the night and on Sundays. And she is tired. She kind of
lacks a  testimony of the Book of Mormon. But we are working hard with
her this week.

We haven't seen the other daughter from the family Flores that we
baptized two weeks ago. she needs to get married and then she can get
baptized. but she lives in a different area and attends a different
ward. Its kinda weird we just hope her pareja is fine with the idea of
marriage ha. Why do people live  with each other before
marriage!  Its weird before we really didn't have trouble with baptism's
and now we have lots. It feels like,
I guess the Lord thinks we can do it.

also Kimico, just needs her permission, but her parents live in Italy,
but said if her aunt says ya then all is good, and the aunt wants to
be baptized she just doesn't have time for the lessons. but its like we
cant find Kimico anymore. frustrating.

So more or less this is our life. just one more week together and we
have transfers,

mom read Alma 56. verses 47 48..   thanks for everything

Also this week we ate pizza first time in 3 months. we went to visit the
guy who served his mission with Bubba and his apartment it the most
like the states that i have  seen in Peru. A big apartment with real a
kitchen big TV, direct TV it had it all.. like 3 bedrooms. But he put on
the Olympics. that was a big temptation and neither me or my companion
said anything to turn it off. more we were scared.... we felt so bad
after. but i did get to make up for the 4 of July because the USA won something
and played the anthem!! Ha

yup love you all and for your support.talk to you next week. pray for
us with baptisms this week. and ill pray for house Ha
