I made it to P-day, thankfully. I got the first package from you guys and it meant the world to me. It made me so happy I can't even express it. I am learning and growing here, so that is good. It is taking time, but I am slowly progressing my Spanish and definitely relying on the Lord for a lot of this.

We are moving our apartment this week, so that should be interesting. I don't really want to move because it sounds like a lot of work and time we don't really have, but we have too because we can't stay in the apartment we have now.

I am trying to think what happened this week, but really it was just a lot of walking. Lots and lots of walking. Lots of contacting and meeting new people. I don't know if there is really anything too exciting other than the package that I received.

I am learning how to rely on prayer and the scriptures. I have my ups and downs here. It is a process to learn how to love it. Some days I don't feel like I can do it. But I ask the Lord to help me get through it and to learn and to grow and the day is still long, but I have the confidence that the Lord is with me and I can do it. It is interesting how it works. I will have moments where I want to throw in the towel then I pray and I am ready to convert all of Peru. Lets do it!

I did not get attacked by any more dogs. I learned to carry a rock in my hand when we pass dogs, and they will run away if you act like you are gonna throw it. If they don't run away, then I throw it. Hope that isn't against the rules or anything but I don't want that to happen again.  That was terrifying! By the way, the dog lived so I don't need a rabies shot. Thank goodness.

I hope all is well back home. Peru is not home. But it is something I am learning to love and appreciate little by little. It is awesome to see the faces of the people here when they hear our message. Either they want nothing to do with us, don't care very much about religion, or they are super attentive and listen to everything. It is cool to see.  I hope I can communicate a little better soon.

I love and miss you guys. I hope all is well and here are some pictures from this week!
