Elder Tanner Beck: November 13, 2017

So Tuesday was a perfect day! we actually had all of our studies and actually proselyted the whole day like we are supposed to. We actually didn't have very much success but i don't care as long as we tried! I read in Ether 12 today and it says faith in there i think 34 times! i love it so much and encourage everyone to read that! so many good things come from faith!

Wednesday i was really sick of my comp always bugging me and other things but other than that i cant remember what happened this day!

Thursday we had a lot of success! we had really good lessons and we also took over a family that the other missionaries have been teaching, they just wont get married so we decided to just focus on the kids so we talked to them and they actually want to be baptized so we have fechas for them which is awesome! we just hope that we can get the parents married so they can get baptized as a family! Also the language is coming slowly i feel like but everyone just tells me to have patience so that's what i'm going to do.

Friday we had a service project in the morning so we moved so many bricks for them and the brother for his job has a juice cart so we all got really good juice after and he had us try this one that tastes like literally just a garden. well that was a mistake cause we all got sick after that. i thankfully didn't throw up but that night i was feeling really awful! and elder gunn got hit the day after that and he was throwing up that night! so i stayed with him while our comps went out proselyting.

Saturday i had no energy from being a little sick but the sun was out so i was happy :)

Sunday was the primary program in our ward and it was super cool, i didnt know they did those here also. it was way cool to hear from all the little kids. Elder gunn today was feeling super bad also so i again stayed with him while our comps went out. but we also had a great lesson with a member family that night! I haven't really had an appetite these past couple of days so that has been super fun!!!

this morning we went to play soccer again and we invited 2 of our investigators today including stanik so that was super fun also! and now i'm here!

Well i love it down here no matter the oposition we face! I love you all so much and just remember to always pray and read the book of mormon every day! President monsons last words were about the importance of this book and its so important for us to read it!

Peru Culture!

_When you meet someone the custom with the girls is to kiss them on the cheek and its really funny when we tell them that we cant and they think its so weird haha

_ apparently the chicken down here isn't woman or male, its really weird and they were explaining it to me yesterday

_I feel like im going crazy down here, the things we do are so weird as missionaries. I don't even know what else they do down here cause its just like normal to me now.

Love all of you so much and so glad that you are all doing well!
