Work work work in Lima Peru

Dear Familia! 

Buenos Dias from Perú!!! This week was FULL of WORK . Lots of work... Hahaha. But lots of good work, lots of progression, and lots of things to work on! 

Monday: For P-day, we cooked brownies (our zone leaders parents sent him some for his birthday) and played cards. Then, we went to the stake center and .... you guessed it! Played Futbol. Hahahaha. 

Tuesday: we went and visited this couple we found a while ago- They are struggling because he needs to get divorced from a previous marriage and he´s not doing the things he needs to to get divorced... bleh... Lots of help and motivation for them!

Wednesaday; We did service in the morning for a less active woman in our ward. She sells food to the ladies who work in the hairshops close to her home, so we helped her out with that I learned how to cook Tallarin Rojas (noodles with a red sauce..carrots and tomatoes) and papa la huancaina! Yum! hahaha. 

That was a really LONG day with lots of appointment and Lots of WALKING! ahh! 

Thursday: At lunch, we had a super trunky lunch.. hahaha. The family we ate with has a daughter who recently got married to a guy from the states. So.. they showed us all the photos!! ahhahaha... so trunky (Trunky is when you think or want or have things that remind you of home) haha

Friday: worked a lot in the morning and then for lunch, we went to this older lady in our ward. She always cooks really healthy, which is awesome, but she cooks us a TON! Seriously.. we had corn, a veggie salad, aji de gallina (Thats the picture I attached) and then jello... So. Much. Food! Hahaha. 

That evening, my companion was pretty sick. But I think that it was because of all the food we ate! hahaha. 

Saturday: We met a new guy named EDUARDO! He is this sweet, old man who has lots of doubts about the church where he´s attending right now. We taught him and he was awesome, but he LOVED to talk! Hahaha. That day was a little stressful because we were running around trying to find a division for our district leader. Ahhh.. la vida misional! hahaha. 

Sunday: was a really good day. Our bishop moved out of our ward about a month ago, and they are working on calling a new bishop. But for now, everyone is in a little bit of a weird transition time. We tlaked to the bishop and are really working on strengthening the ward.

That evening, we visited Eduardo! That was such a good lesson. As we were teaching him about how in these days we have modern prophets, i showed him a picture of Thomas S. Monson. ]He told us that he felt like he knew him before. It was so sweet! and we invited him to be baptized and he accepted! So now, we´ll be preparing him! 

This week was full of ups and downs and lots of things to do and places to walk. I cannot believe how fast the time is flying! This is week 5 of this change. Crazy. Also... The WEATHER IS STARTING TO CHANGE!! WOOT WOOT! It´s actually pretty cold here in the morning and evening/night.

 I hope you guys are all doing well! I love you and am always praying for you guys! Don´t forget to say your prayers and give thanks! 

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxox.. 

Love love love,
