Hola
from Cusco Peru!
I
have been out for a month now. I have loved every minute of it and the people
of Cusco Peru are so kind and caring. I have loved teaching them. And they are
so patient with my Spanish. I
love this gospel and I love seeing people's faces as they come to know their
Father in Heaven. We gave a Book of Mormon to an investigator last night and he
was so happy and interested. The Book of Mormon is my favorite book and I love
sharing it and its message with people. We
have been sharing the gospel with this woman that cries every time we give her
a new pamphlet or the Book of Mormon. We hope to see her baptism in the
future. I
have come to love this city, the people and the language, as hard as it is. The
dogs are wonderful as well.

I'm always wearing my raincoat, it's cold here.
Or always rainy. Yesterday we had a storm, lightning and thunder
and rain and we lost power. Thankfully I knew exactly where my flashlight was
and so we had light. Sometimes it is drizzly, sometimes it is a downpour and we
rush for shelter. No matter what the weather, you go out and proselyte. It's a
good thing I love the rain.

The "stairs of doom".
We have to climb them to get to this girl we
have been teaching, her name is Lucero and she is so cute. I love her. One
time, we helped this old lady carry her load up there and I was sure I was
going to die. I do get a good workout and have been getting
stronger as it is easier for me to climb the hills.
Love,
Hermana
