Transfers, once again

We didn’t do anything for Easter,
just ate some of my Christmas candy (:

There were transfers this week!

I’m staying in my area. A Peruvian is going to be my companion. He’s from
Chiclayo. He has about 14 months in the mission.

My companion, Elder Smedly, got transferred to another part of Arequipa. He
has a new assignment. He is going to go work in the Family History Center

We’re thinking I’ll have 1 transfer with my new companion, Elder Araujo,
and then go somewhere else to Continue reading

Another week gone

Here’s another day by day break down

Tuesday: First of all, everyone here drinks yogurt. They don’t eat it; they
drink it. It’s all very runny. It’s good, though. You buy it in a big 1
liter plastic bottle. Our pensionista bought us Continue reading

No more rain

This week we’ve just had lots of sun. We
keep working, like normal. I’m getting to know the area and the people now.
It’s been good. Still no baptisms lined up, but we’re working more with the
members now. They’re starting to help us out more.

I just have some pictures of our pensionista’s dogs. They’re Peruvian dogs,
which means, they’re naked. I don’t know why, but lots of people have and
like these dogs. The bigger Peruvian/naked dogs remind me of those
horse/monster things in Harry Potter. Apparently Continue reading
