QUE TAL FAMILIA!!
i cant belive im in peru!!! it is a completely
different world here!! at the airport in gorgia i ran into hna bledsoe!! we got
to fly together and get to peru together!! i stayed in a hotel the first night
in peru and it was really nice! i stayed with hna ivie who is going to
trajillo. on tuesday we went to the police place to get our visas and were
there for forever!! but i met up with two other elders from my district and
then ended up flying with them to arequipa that day! i stayed with the mission
president that night because i was the only sister and then the next day we had
training and then i got on a bus and went to my area which is moquega and is
about 4 hours away from arequipa, its really hot here and the sun is super
strong but i love it!! the people are so nice and patient with my horrible
spanish. haha my companion is hermana purizaga and she is from peru and is so
great! shes super obedient which is good!! i learn so much from her and she is
very patient with me! when we pray we kneel on a pillow on the floor, hold
hands and then hug after.. how cute huh!! wednesday night we taught a
lesson and honestly i didnt understand anything that was going on haha everyday
consists of lessons, meetings and contacting people on the streets. we live in
the branch presidents house on the third floor, and their daughter and her
family live on the first floor and shes the one that cooks for us! the food is
different here but its good!! for breakfast we eat rolls and eggs usually and
for lunch, which is huge we eat rice and chicken and potatoes usually. and for
dinner we usually just have a piece of cake.. haha its great though. We walk
everywhere and somehow its always uphill... haha the cars and drivers here are
so crazy.. i dont think there are any rules! ohhh and i ate cow heart.....
yummm.. tasted like steak ! haha all the woman here great eachother by
kissing eachother on the cheek. i am learning more and more spanish everyday
and learning the culture and ways of the people. They are seriously so humble
and nice.. i dont even know how to explain it. I´m learning more and more
everyday about everything.. and i know that this church is true. and it can
change peoples lives, all over the world!!! sorry this is so short! ill do
better next week i promise!!! love you all!!!!!
Adios!!
Hermana weller!
