Welcome to Chivay

Well, I had my first transfer this
week. Saturday night, my leaders called me to tell me that I had been
assigned to work in Chivay, Peru. I packed everything up Sunday night
and this morning at 8:40, I left Arequipa to make the 3 hour drive to
Chivay.

I’m up here in the mountains, living in Colca Canyon. It’s nice and
cold, a little bit rainy, and super green. There’s only 4 missionaries
here, my companion and me, and 1 other companionship. 1 of the other
Elders was with me in the CCM, so that’s Continue reading

Last Week in Hunter

This is likely my last week here
in Hunter. Next week we have transfers, and after 7 1/2 months here in
my first area, I assume I’ll be getting transfered. It’s been good and
fun here, but if the Lord needs me somewhere else, that’s where I’m
going.

Last week we went on a tour of Arequipa, and I included a bunch of photos.

This week we’re going to hike up to some waterfalls. It should be a
fun P-Day for my last one here in the Zone.

This week we found a bunch of new investigators, and we’re going Continue reading

General Conference

This week was awesome because we got
to listen to the living prophets, seers, and revelators that are here on
the Earth. I learned a lot from their teachings and about what I need to do
to prepare myself for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

The work is going like normal here in Hunter. We have transfers in a couple
weeks, and I will probably be leaving my first area, having my first
transfer. I’ve been here for 7 1/2 months already. We have a goal to
baptize 5 people here in April, but I probably Continue reading

Not much new

I don’t have much to report this week.
We’ve been working like normal. We’re both healthy. We’ve also been
able to find a few new investigators thanks to the members, so that’s
really good. We’re visiting them and teaching them little by little.
We don’t have any baptisms lined up right now, but we plan on inviting
a few people to be baptised this week.

I am contuing to read the Libro de Mormon, and I’m learning a lot from
the book. It is strengthening my testimony to see how similar the
Church Continue reading

Baptism #8

We had another baptism this weekend. We
finally baptized the mom of one of the girls I baptized back in November.
She was really happy to be baptized and receive the Holy Ghost. My
companion baptized her, and I confirmed her a member of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints. It was his first baptism that he’s done, but
everything went fine. It’s so great to see another family join the Church.
She is separated from her husband, so it’s just her, her 9 year old
daughter that was baptized, Continue reading
