Peru
Buenas
tardes mis queridos hermanos! Esta semana! Wow! But don´t worry I will write in
English(: It´s been a while since I have written! And a lot has happened! But I
never have sufficient time but I will try to hit all the big details(:
What a week in little
ol Ica, Perú! This past Monday and Tuesday were in Lima for a meeting! My
companion was in meetings and I went with other Hermanas to their area and we
had lessons! I went to a place called San Juan en Lima and we had a lesson in
family history. It was a really good lesson with a really great family! I got
to know the two hermanas that I was with, that are in the picture from this
week! Hermana Luna who is working in San Juan and the Hermana Primintela who is
working in another part in Lima called Villa del Salvador! Both of them are the
best and just so nice! And then when we traveled home on Tuesday we didn´t get
home until 11:30 which is soooo late! We got a little angry with the
elders(; Not really we traveled with them but we definitely didn´t go running
the next morning because we were realllly tired. But then the rest of the week
we worked a lot with out Less Actives and recent converts! And this Sunday we
had 2 of our less actives come to church for the first time in YEARS...The Lord
always works miracles!!
And the sad news from
this week, two of our sweet little investigators have lost their date of
baptism because they don´t feel prepared. But we continue to love them and work
with them so that they feel prepared to be baptized because we know that it is
so important to live with our Heavenly Father after this life! We want them to
have their forever with their families too!
The picture of my
companion is from this morning in our companion planning. We received a phone
call from the elderes de pisco saying that their had been some problems that we
needed to help them resolve so my companion was calling every person and her face
in the picture is from 4 phone calls later(; She was on the phone for more than
an hour so I cleaned the house(: It was a good morning! And this week really
has been good! We have seen the Lord help us every single day and honestly this
is the best place I could honestly be. The mission is the most amazing
experience I have ever experienced. I love this gospel and I love my Savior. I
love the people here in Ica as well(; Have a great week I will write again
soon!
Love,
Hermana Shylo Lawrence
