7.3 we need all kinds of people


This week we met: 
A crazy yoga lady who bowed to us and kissed the book of mormon with her forehead. The pedialyte she gave us to drink was lowkey fire
A dude from holland who speaks spanish in the deepest voice I've ever heard. 
A dude with a man bun who used to be in the circus but it was too hard to pretend to be happy.




The number of times I was like... what the heck is happening. We got a call at 9:50 the other night. It was my favorite old abuelita en the world, the kind that hates people, loves us and rides motorcycles, asked me how you pronounce Liam paynes name. Yeah she was telling me about her Netflix and Spotify premium deals the other day, shout out Rosario.



We played chair soccer and volleyball with all thr elders in the world today. 4 hermanas and literally 2 all elders zones so that was...interesting. 



I love being a missionary. It's getting so hot. I love seeing miracles. Sorry my emails are so lame maybe I'll start getting better but probably not... we've made it this far. But I do want to say how CRAZY it is that the gospel is so so so true. Like we're so lucky that we know there is MORE to come! Like President Nelson said in the last conference, I pray we will not miss the majesty of this moment. Love you all, ur in my prayers 

XOXO hermana Peter Parker (the 16 year old goes "hey Peter Parker OH SORRY I MEANT Hermana Peter Parker)

This week was an absolute whirlwind. Like i feel like pday was yesterday but last tuesday was like at least a month ago. TIME IS SO WEIRD ON THE MISH but bueno.  Ill be so honest my camera roll right now is full of screenshots of pme (my missionary scheduling app) and random.phone numbers im supposed to remember so there might not be much content...props to.hermana de hoyos for actually taking photos.  We're finally starting to see some progress here, we didnt even have a day this week with more than an hour of finding (which is huuuuge cuz usually We're knocking and calling for a good 3 or 4 hours). It makes me so joyous and also.worried that prez is gonna boot me out of here next transfer which would be so emo because there are some mega cool people we have progressing!  I thought i was getting less tired but i guess not because i started saying comp prayer the other day to start our study and fell asleep mid oracion so that was embarrassing. My comp just stared at me t...

6.11 Better than disneyland

Image
I am so bad at writing emails which is so lame I'm sorry I really don't do Peru justicia.  This week was like disneyland for me. We got to go to the temple.  I love God's house. He really has such good interior design style. And holy moly being able to participate in an endowment (a special like learning ordinance) IN SPANISH I was giddy. I'm a dork I know.  BUT anyways I was very happy. Speaking of happy things. Valentina got baptized this week. My heart was marshmellowy, she bore her testimony and said she couldn't be more grateful for the example we as missionaries have given her. Best compliment in the world. We asked her how she felt after and she Goes "normal". Ay que te pasa but her brother wants to learn more now because of her :)) My poor comp was DYING last week so we did an emergency division and she went to independencia with the hermana leader who threw up in district council...and all the elders were coughing...so they all were giving each ot...

3.1 Best Ways to Dissapoint Peruvians

I'm writing this email in my casa en PERU!!! LOCO. I still can't really believe I'm here haha!  I don't have much to say, but we have a great ffa program lined up. *name that film* But seriously my mind is un poco fried and so it's difícil to even remember what happened since a week ago I was in Ohio.  But to start I need to tell you how gringo i feel. I want to speak Spanish so BAD with the ward and especially my cutie compañera hma Bautista. Ella es de la Republica Dominicana!!!! My heart!!! She's so fun and cool and walks into traffic like it's nothing. And I am oblivious to traffic, am a head taller than everyone, and stand around like a dunce when someone asks me a question. I totally understand what people are saying until they ask me something simple like where are you from and all of a sudden I have yogurt for brains (which you drink here BTW. I've been doing that forever tho since I always forgot spoons for my lunch) Hence the first reason I dis...
