Dear Familia
Shout outs: congrats Emily on the dealio with your main man*! Shark, happy birthday very shortly and just know that I never will forget the good ol tiburon!!
So this week was good, we ¨did work¨ ya'll know that. We had the opportunity to help a kid named junior get baptised, we were able to involve his dad. My plan is to get the dad baptised, but we all know how stubborn a 50 year-old man can be... haha Anyways that's the big news and I sent a photo of the baptism. As for the rest of the week, we were able to go to a conference where elder Uceda spoke. It was good, and he seems like a good guy ;) I learned quite a bit. Overall to study the scriptures more.

As for the other photos, the one with the tree is called unce. It's where they celebrate one of the saints and put a tree in the middle of the street and then cut it down. it's pretty chill. We should do it one day at home haha.
The other is a cake that we tried to cook because it was the birthday of the branch president, that was fun and it actually turned out ok.
And the last pic is of me cooking breakfast, nothin like breakfast in bed! And yes i can cook...kinda. Anyway that's the big news of the week.

As for Paita,yeah I've got some serious time here, and I definitely have got my family here in Paita! We're working with the branch, and it's starting to have its fruits. I believe we will be seeing more baptisms in March! My comp is doing good. We're learning together. Patience and humility is something that we are trying to develop. The Bolivian is backin off a little, and the rest of the crew in the mission is doing great!!! Anyways, I love you guys to death!!! and I'll try to get ya the memory card sent this week or the next.
Love,
