Argentina! |
Tuesday was transfers and so I left to pick up Elder Pierce in the stake center in Campoy and then we went to La Molina after for a training for the trainers. Elder Pierce is from Arizona and he's 6'4 so we're both pretty tall for Peru, haha; two tall gringos. He is really goofy, holy cow, and a little bit awkward but it's whatever; haha he's great. He played basketball in high school so it's dope to finally have met someone that knows about basketball like I do.
Elder Pierce, LOL |
Elder Morris and his new comp from the CCM are in our room with us. Elder Morris is from Layton and he has about 16 months and he's training Elder Gonzalez from Mexico so the people in our room are pretty young. The thing is, we split our area and the other elders have pretty much all of the dirt. Our part of the area is pretty nice and yesterday when we were contacting we found all of this green because there is this river that flows right next to us, and man it was just so good to actually see some green, haha.

Carapongo is pretty chill though, kinda like my past two areas. Not a whole lot goes on. The people here are pretty fun to talk to though, so that's good. Right now we have one investigator named Carlos and he has a little boy. He wants to get married to his girlfriend but she doesn't want to so they aren't living together right now and he's trying to finalize this job that he's trying to get. He's a great guy but finding time to teach him has been a struggle but he really wants to change his life to please pray for him.
The miracle of the week was literally seeing alll of the green, haha; super nice to see. Well I hope everyone has a great week.
GREEN! |
Love, Elder Shockley
