Hola
amigos!
On
Tuesday we had intercambios and I went with Hna Alvarenga to her area and it
was the best! We had a few awesome lessons, had tons of fun talking and
laughing, and I learned a TON from her. It was a super great day and got me
excited for the rest of the week.
On
Thursday we had a lesson with Lorena. She’s 11 and we've taught her mom a few
times, but she didn't want to listen this time so we just taught Lorena. We
taught the plan of salvation with the little diagram I have, and she understood
it really well. Then she drew out the diagram so she can make her own! She’s
super cute and we hope to be able to keep teaching her.
Saturday
we went to Otuzco to have a lesson with Rosalila, but there was a dance going
on, and she was there watching her husband cuz he was one of the drummers. It
was super cool, all the men were in white, with red sashes with little mirrors
sewn on, and dancing. Rosalila said they'd been going since 10:00 the night
before...it was super cool but I didn't have my camera...we had a super great
lesson with Nora, we just think it'll take a while with her cuz we haven't been
able to have lessons very often. We also had a lesson with someone we found in
the area book. She seems great, but she had a lot of really hard questions, so
that was interesting, but a good learning experience.
Sunday
we had cuy (guinea pig)!! I usually have a pretty strong stomach, but they just
disembowel them and fry them so you can definitely tell what it is, so that was
just too much for me and I only ate a little bit.
Today
we went to Porcon as a district, and it was super fun!! It’s about an hour and
a half from Cajamarca, and it is so pretty! I’ll just send the pics.
This
has been a great week of learning how I can improve, learning from other missionaries
and from members as well. I’ve felt the spirit a lot this week, and my love for
the other missionaries here and the people of Peru just keeps growing!! I know
this gospel is true with all of my heart, and I’m so grateful to be able to
share it. I hope you all have a great week!

It looks like she is having a wonderful experience. Since I am confident she will run into more llamas please remind her not to look them square in the face. I have first-hand experience with the results and it all I can say is I am glad my mouth was closed, my sunglasses were on and my sense of humor was in tact. Love the updates!
