hey!!!  how was everyone's first day of school??

this week we had L's baptism! it was so great and the spirit was so strong.  she was super nervous to go into the freezing cold water but i talked to her right after and she said that while she was in the water she couldnt even feel the cold.  she was filled with something warm she said.  we could all tell how happy she was.  all the young women came to support and they are all committed to help her stay active.  and then yesterday she was confirmed a member of the church!! the work of the lord is progressing here in chinchaysuyo!!

and on friday my zone had the opportunity to sing at a massive wedding.  it was super fun because i got to see my friends in other zones who were helping people to be married.  and there was a 85 year old couple getting married!! they were soooo cute.  the lady had flowers braided into her hair and her husband could barely walk but he was in his suit and was smiling the whole time.  everyone was dying it was so cute haha.  and then they were both baptized the next day.  and they all lived happily ever after...   

well today my zone gets to go to downtown lima!! we are so excited because it is outside our mission and there are actually cool things to do! haha.  we got special permission from president to leave the mission boundaries for the day.  there are new rules and each zone is now allowed to go to downtown lima once every 3 months.  so i will take tons of pictures and send them to you next week!!

 

well thats about all for this week.  i hope everyone is doing good and loving school.  i would love to hear how all your first days of school were so write me!!!!
