Hola!!! From UNDER the Equator!!!! And Proud of it!!!! I love Peru!!! I love the mission!!!!
WOOO HOOOOO!!!
It IS getting hotter here, it’s summer!
This week we played soccer for p-day in the church by the zone leader’s apartment, and then we went to eat pollo ala brasa! It is a really good chicken that they make here, similar to the oven-roasted chicken from Costco or Sam’s Club, but a whole lot better!!!!!
Tuesday we had a training with three Zones; Wiesse, Magnolias and Las Flores. It was mainly about working with the members and what we should be doing in our meetings with the ward and stake, and what part we should be taking. I had to give a training on the Ward Council and what we should do there. It went ok, I was nervous and they could all tell, but that's ok.
On Wednesday we started a three day training on the 8 Simple Lessons, it is something that has come through the First Presidency and the Twelve, and is 8 things that we need to do better at in the missionary work. They are great things that PMG (Preach My Gospel) talks about but that not very many missionaries were using. The three days passed quickly and I learned a lot from them, we also learned that Hermana Blunck makes good cookies!! For every reference that we gave, they gave us cookies, and I tried not to focus on the cookies, but they were a nice help to ask for references, jajaja :)
On Saturday I was with an Elder from my district and on Sunday we had church (I love going to church!!!)
Today isn’t p-day because tomorrow we are going to the TEMPLE!!! I love the temple!!!!
I love the gospel, it is soooo!!!! true!!!!
We have a living prophet and I am thankful for all of you!!!!
Happy Thanksgiving!!! TURKEY DAY!!! Eat some good apple pie for me!
Love you all and I’m praying for ya!!!!!
Elder Joe Johnson
