I hope that all is well for everyone reading this.
It
has been an awesome couple first weeks here in Sicuani! My trainer is
Elder Wilde from California, Single Springs. We're serving in Sicuani,
the ward itself. The first Sunday was elections, and no meetings are
allowed in the country, so that was an interesting first Sunday.
We
have pensions that take care of our food so we can focus on the work
more. The pension here in Sicuani, Hermana Mari has been a Pensionista
for 19 years! She's fabulous!
We had a baptism
the second Saturday we were here, Hermano Jose Luis, he had almost been
baptized with the previous Elders, but timing didn't work out. He's
amazing.
And now we're teaching a couple people
that should have a baptismal date soon. Darwin and Ayben, Darwin was
being taught by the previous Elders and Ayben was a reference, they are
both working so hard to come to God, it's fantastic!
I hope that you all had a great Father's day yesterday!
My
first P-day we hiked a huge mountain, Sicuani itself is higher than Mt.
Timp I'm pretty sure, and this mountain that's just North and one of
the tallest peaks was a couple thousand higher than Sicuani. Then today
we went to Pitumarca and hiked to the glacier, not up it, but we played
in the snow. and found a cool lagoon. And there was a small pueblo that
reminded me of Rohan from Lord of the Rings. And thus the glacier was
Chararadras.:D
We also have some other people
we're teaching, it's just so awesome when you're teaching, and then the
Spirit comes and testifies of the truth of the message. Do everything you
can to live worthy, note that it's not perfect, but worthy of the
Spirit's presence.
Read the Book of Mormon. Meditate on it. Pray about it. Listen for a response.
Hasta la próxima semana!
Hurrah for Israel!
