Well I am slowly adjusting to the schedule and
needs of an missionary. The first couple day were very long, and I was
really tired. We arrived around 3 in the morning Peru time. On the way
here I noticed a small miracle that already happened. As we were going
through the gate to Board the plane a sister from St. George went to
scan her ticket to board the plan. The delta worker handed the ticket
back and said she was not on the correct flight and here plan left over 3
hours ago. I felt sorry for her too, because this was here first time
flying. Our plane was very full, so all I could do was pray she could
make it to Peru safely. As we changed planes in Atlanta I saw here come
of the same plane I was on. Some how the delta managed to fit her on to a
flight that was way overbooked. Just shows you God watches over the
misionaries.
The language is bugging me because I
can not speak it very well. I understand most things that are said, but I
struggle to pronouce a lot of the words. It will come with patience,
but right now it is just hard trying to teach investadores with what
little spanish I know.
This morning we went to the
Templo and it was amazing. It was a struggle to cross through the veil
in spanish, but it just focused me in on what I should be doing on this
mission. I felt at peace and just felt the everything will be okay. I
then bought three ties one is red one is orange, and one is baby blue.
The orange one has the templo on it, the blue one has a lama, and the
red one which is really funny has a university of utah logo on it.
Please post my mission email on the blog and my facebook for me.
I do not really remember all my contacts emails so I cannot really email everyone, so if they want they can send me an email.
HAHA I am also singing in the choir on sunday when a general authority comes and visits.
I
love the latinos here. Playing soccer with them is the BEST. I may not
be able to score many goals, but I play very good defense. Yesterday I
slid a saved a goal, and now some of the Latinos call me Beckham because
it rythmes with Mecham and because david beckham is amazing at soccer.
Also
the latinos love to try to buy ties off elders. <very funny when one
tried to offer an elder a hundred dollars just for a tie. Life is good.
Yo
se (the keyboard is being dumb so it would let me use accents) que La
Iglesia de Jesucristo de los santos de los utlimos dias es verdad. Yo se
que Jose smith fue una profeta. Yo se que Dios amar me. Este testimonio
me ayanda a vivir con fuerza y traer me paz y caridad.
I miss you all; but I am not home sick.
Btw
I was showing pictures of the family. People saw Bekah's picture and
thought she was gorgous... I am never showing elders Bekah´s picture
again..
Tell Bekah, Terron,
Mitch(bubba), Malyssa, and Brookie I love and miss them. Let them Know
that I know the church is true. It is muy importante that they live what
they know and seek to learn even more.
Also I
will not be able to upload picture do to a change in the mtc rules this
week. Some elder probably broke a rule and ruined it for everyone else
here.
My compañero is a cool guy from Idaho Falls. Elder Romrell is his name. He is doing well.
Love you all,
Paz y Amor
Also I love the food!!!!!!! There is so much rice and chicken and yummy fruits.
Some people do not care for all the rice; but I love it so That is all that matters.
