So
this week has been pretty good, lots of walking and lessons, I'm starting to
talk a lot more during lessons which is great! my companion is still doing
great but can't talk to him that much cause i don't really know Spanish and he
knows little English. on Thursday Peru played Argentina for the world cup
qualifiers and that was crazy, we couldn't get into anyone's houses cause
everyone in Peru watches the game!! you could hear it from in the streets cause
it was so loud. on Saturday we had a lesson with this guy named Rodrigo who is
about 25 and I asked him to be baptized and he said yes!!! so I will have my
first baptism on the 28th of October which is so exciting to me!! Well I love
all you guys!
Peru
Culture
_there
are no stop signs where I am, there are just speed bumps everywhere which I
thought was super smart
some
pics, not very many cause there really isn't that much to take pics of, it's
just a lot of dirt and shacks, also i forget I have my camera

Some more information from emailing with my family: I'm pushing through, the main problem is I can't really
talk to anyone because I don't know Spanish, I feel kinda alone. but i know that
I'm not. its a members home, another member does our laundry
every week also. yeah Elder Gunn (was in CCM with me) has the same pensionista as us so i get to
talk to him every meal. yeah its going good i guess, its super ez to tune out
Spanish because i don't get a lot of it so when people ask me questions its hard
cause i don't hear them half the time, and they speak really fast. yeah kids are always playing soccer, i want to play with
them so bad! just look up San Luis in Nuevo Chimbote, I don't really know
our address or even they have real addresses down here. We live in an area called Vista Alegre. We are about a 10 minute walk from the church. Our home has 2 levels, the members live above us.
