we opened the area after some time of not having missionaries so the members are just extremely happy to see us. they are a branch but the chapel is one of a kind and the members are so involved with the work of the Lord that we will be able to harvest lots of fruit here(example:we havent proselited a minute without a member with us!) my companion is from lima and is 25 years old. were happy to be where we are and have already had great experiences being guided by the Spirit. i cant explain how amazing conference was again and hope all could enjoy the words of the prophet and apostles. it is ridiculously hot here im the furthest north companionship in the mission. my area is CHEPEN and its pure rice fields up here. our investigator who we are going to put a baptismal date with tonight is named ana maria who is about 25 and has come to the branch on her own 3 weeks in a row and is showing a great desire. keep her in your prayers. all have lots more to tell you next week but the city im in is awesome because its small but has everything a big city has. im buying a harmonica today and thats gonna be my new thing i think ha. love and miss you all. take care and keep me in your prayers as i do you all. thank you so much for all the letters heidi nikki stacie peter shelly and fam. i feel like a woman when people pass my computer in these internet cafes and im teared up but i really enjoy the spirit of all your letters, especially dad
DAD:thank you for everything and the kind words that honestly keep me going. keep your focus on studying the scriptures and all your worries will disappear. hope you have been able to pray together with mom wwhen you get the chances and also share your love for her. she needs the motivation from her eternal partner and i just want to thank you for the GREATEST example ive been able to look to my entire life.
MOM:every little email note that i read of yours makes me cry and feel a warm comforting to hear your loving words of care. i wish i could and would have shown and expressed my love for you more because i cant much now but i want you to know that if it werent for you, your example, your love, your care, your watchful eye, your good cooking, and your daily help in staying in order from school to church, i would not only not be here, but possibly in a dark hole facing big problems. i feel so strongly your kind spirit although im far from you and i cant hold back the tears right now. love and miss you mom
