un día van a entender mis sujetos‏

hey everyone thanks for all the emails. It really means a lot to hear from all of you, as I always feel your support and it helps me always to keep remembering the importance of this work. I like to hear and learn from all of your testimonies, and I feel my own strengthen each time I read yours.the heat is actually starting to tone down a little bit here. It is still hot like none other, but now its more like a really hot day in Canada. We are starting winter soon here, and I heard that during the day it doesn´t really change a whole lot. Oh well, I am pretty acostumbrado a esta clima, or so they say.

I bought some shoes in this past week, that are a little bit small, but what can you do in a world where all the people have small feet. But I am now playing futbol again, and happy to be doing so. I wish that they played more soccer in Canada...

in this week we had the opportunity to baptize two single adults. They are named Alvaro and Ruth. We have taught them for almost four months, and we had the great privilidge to help them prepare for this ordinance that is so important. At the baptism we had a lot of support from the single adults, and i feel like they are really going to be a great support for Alvaro and Ruth. Here in Peru we don´t have single adult wards, the single adults all congregate in the family wards, but have their classes and actividades normales. I had the opportunity to baptize Alvaro, and although he is a pretty big guy, it was very easy. Maybe I have just become really strong, or something...

THis week i don{t have a whole lot of time, so I am going to have to end a little bit early. I know that this church is true, and I know that our Father in Heaven is guiding it. It is really so amazing to consider thta really this is a living church, that really we are receiving, through a prophet, revelation and help in how we can return home to a Father who is waiting anxiously. I love you all, and I will talk to you this next week.}
