WOOOHOOO. . . looks like a fun week for the fam!! Dad, glad the birthday was all good but wow bro you’ve got like 100 years or something like that? Jaja bromas. Looking good! I’m not going to lie, I think I started to cry when I saw all the pics of you guys snowboarding and of all the snow AND when I read that you guys saw the new Star Wars movie... AND when I read that the Jazz are 4th in the West! PUCHA! I’m so upset! jajajaja. So many things I’d kill to do but I can’t. Tough luck with the leg Drew but don’t be a pansy and get back out there. I have videos of me high jumping and honestly, I think I’m the most homesick when I see those. I miss it so much. Bro you’ve got potential to be a state champ so work hard man. NO TE DAS POR VENCIDO. Also, you look like a tool in every pic you take. jaja I’m pretty sure you’re flexing in every single one. jajaja. I dig the interview shirt that’s the freaking best. Pero! This week went by way fast. Even though NOTHING happened. jaja
Literally, nothing has gone on in my area for 2 weeks. We lost a lot of investigadores this week and the week past because the people don’t want to give up drinking. I’m pretty sure that’s the Peruvians favorite sport. jaja. We definitely need a bigger area though. My comp and I have knocked every single door like 4 times. We don’t have a ton of investigadores right now so all we do is contact to find more. Our presidente de la mision told us that we don’t have permission to visit the menos activos of the ward. So all we do when we don’t have a cita is knock doors and contact the streets. We got so desperate this week that we were going to start riding buses to different places so that we could contact all the people on the bus. jajaja. Yahhhh! but I love my comp and my area. We’ve been working hard and Me llevo bien con mi compañero. He’s a stud. Our ward is super chill too. They help us a lot but never give us any referencias so it just makes it a little bit harder to find more. So it was a slow week but it went by super fast. It doesn’t make a ton of sense to me. jaja. My comp has been pretty sick too. I think he’s got a stomach infection like I had because I think he spends more time on the toilet than off. jaja. Poor kid but he’ll be fine... I hope. I’m not gonna lie. This month was so hard for me. I wanted to be back home with the familia doing all the Christmas stuff and such. Last night I was pretty bummed out. Some guy told me that I was no good and that I was an antichrist. jaja I don’t know how I am. He just kept saying stuff like that and how the things we preach are false. He told me I only came here to brag about my life in the US and that everyone here suffers while the people in the states live big. I wanted to hit him so bad. jajajaja but it made me realize two things. ONE: I hate drunk people. I will never drink. I have no tolerance for people like that. They suck! jaja So many people here drink. And TWO: I made the decision to come to Peru to preach something true. I honestly can say that before the mission I didn’t have a very strong testimony of this Evangelio but it has grown so much. I can’t imagine a life without it. The fags here just don’t understand it yet and that’s why I’ve come here to teach them so that they can experience it like I have. Today for p-day we are just going to go visit some people in my old ward because I feel like I may get transferred out of Arequipa this change. It might be the only time I get to visit. I really love my area but am kind of ready for a change. We need a more people to find. We are also going bowling with our district so that should be fun. Next week a dude from our ward is taking us to a place called Chiguata. It should be pretty cool. LOVE ya familia and keep killing it and enjoy the week. Chau!!!! YA Boy Hunt
