I've successfully made it past the hot season. It should go down a little bit. But it continues to be too hot for comfort. We had a little cita with the bishop's wife to help her with something. So we went over to cut up some animals. It was insane, and in church clothes. It was so fun! It's Cuy. Then we ran to the chapel for an interview and she didn't come because of her husband. Then it was a sad day. She wants to get baptized, but her husband is a little aggressive.

Stake Conference
This was a crazy week. We have a Multi-Zone Conference on Friday with half the mission. President came down here to Chimbote to get on us for not being smart, and then blew our minds talking about the Plan of Salvation. Then we had Stake Conference this weekend and the Stake President is crazy. President Rios was there and spoke and left. It was really good. Then this goon gets up and goes off about Pure blooded horses and a lot about the devil and how he wants to eat us like snakes eat fireflies. He was crazy! But the First Counselor got up and gave a killer talk on the family, and then I was sad. You guys need to reactivate everyone!

Happy Valentine's Day
It was a weird Sunday in the ward. In Elders Quorum they had everyone stand up and give hugs to all the dudes. Their kinda unique. But it's been very different with a new companion. I'm the only one that knows the people and the area and still, I'm not that smart. It's been a new challenge, and I'm getting through it. One weird thing now that I'm out of training is proselyting at 11am after language study. And people really don't like being woken up from their naps at that hour. We went to contact a reference and I knock on the door and this women runs out and screams at me saying, "What are you doing knocking so loud!? You're going to wake up the people? What do you want this early in the morning?!"

Última Semana
I've made it 11 weeks in the field and about to finish my training. But that doesn't make sense because I still can't speak Spanish. I'll figure it out. We had a pretty good month, it's just been crazy busy all the time, and a little too hot. My bishop told me that on Wednesday it got up to 36 degrees. That's hot I think.
