This week was great
and I am adjusting and getting used to my area, but I just know that when I do
we will be traveling. Goodness me! But hey! The mission is a constant adventure
and WOW! I just can’t believe I am Peru. I wake up every morning and think.
What in the world… I am not in Utah. This is not anything like Utah. Haha! But
I love it!
I decided I just need
to get everything out so it will be a bunch of random points this week.
-The Book of Mormon.
Can I just tell you all that I love this book? I read it EVERYDAY! I feel its
power and know that the people I am teaching feel the spirit each time we are
Reading. I finished it this week and asked the Lord to help me know that it is true.
I already know it is but a reconfirmation is always appreciated. That day I had
many experiences that I was able to preach with power and the Holy Ghost was
there.
-Teaching Families is
the best but most stressful thing in the whole world! Literally last night we
had a FHE appointment and we went and oh BOY! It was like a counseling session
I felt like. Fighting, arguing, and basically it was a time to get it all out
for all of them. But I was able to testify to them that through the gospel we
can have strong united families and luckily by the end of the lesson we knelt
down in prayer. Their two teenagers and their parents…. Wow the spirit that
immediately came.
-I finally get to wear
a sweatshirt and wear slippers because it is a Little bit cold at night! Haha!
-We might have to move
again and I about lost it! 5 times moving in my mission! UGH!!! No, maybe the
Lord is teaching me something. Who knows.
-JACKSON I mean… ELDER
FRAME HITS A YEAR THIS MONTH! Oh how I miss him and love to hear how well he is
doing. Shout out to my amazing brother.
-Prayer is incredible.
I love praying with my companion because even though we are super different and
I thought I was not going to enjoy our time together surprisingly I make it
through the day because I ask the lord to help.
-We were at our
pensions Moms house this week and she told me that I need to get married to a Peruvian
and move here because of how I just brighten everyone’s day. I told her… Okay!
And I can have chocolate babies! She died laughing.
-I have had an Elder
from Spanish Fork serve in my area since the beginning of my mission. Now Elder
Jensen from my high school is serving here in Abancay… Small world… especially
in the church.
-I wish I had a
washing machine. I have washed my garments by had since the beginning of my
misiĆ³n. Appreciate your washers and dryers!
-MY AREA IS HUGE!
Compared to Quillabamba. I can’t even walk it in 2 hours. I always think of how
Elder Frame…. Is driving to all of his appointments and I am here walking..
HAHA poor hermana frame…
-I have a craving for
Little Cesars…. Really bad… And root beer. Haha! It can wait…
-I LOVE BEING A
MISSIONARY.
Well, need to go. I
love this life as a missionary and taking in every second I get. There are
moments I have during studies that I think. Oh, how I miss this, or this, or
this, and then I sit there and slap myself in the face and say… WHAT A
BLESSING. I truly love this work and I know it is where I am supposed to be.
I love you all.
Hermana Frame
This is how all of the
women carry their babies.
It is called a manta…. Super bright colors… and hey
it Works!
I wanted a pretty
picture and there was some kids flying a homemade kite
and had no clue that my
companion was snapping pictures.
In the end they all love the cards that we
hand out so we snapped another pic! Haha
We walk through a
ditch every day and this is the moment I think…
Haha my brother in his air
conditioned car… Haha!
Coke in the combie!
Loving the life here in Peru.
Coke and riding in a car that can fit what feels
like
50 people in one car.
Brother Sorenson sent
a book of Mormon!
What a spiritual momento to give it to one of my
investigators!
Thank you!
This is cane. Like
sugar cane.
They cut it up and sell it to eat…
Salchipapas with my
pension and the other hermanas! WE LOVED IT!
We went to Mirador….
It is where there is a big White cross and we can see the whole city of
Abancay!
Hermana Cooper, Hermana Hansen, my companion Hermana Tango and I!
We
loved it and had a great time with llamas and taking pics.
