Dear Familia,
| Our Mother's Day skype visit May13, 2013 from Legua, Peru |
First off, thanks for all the support that you guys give to me! That really makes the difference when you're a long ways away! So I'm doing good as you could see from yesterday. I'm excited and keeping up the work as always. So lets get down to business. First off, I was thinking about what Tanner told me and what not. I'm sure I'm gonna move out, but not till January. I'll be way too rushed with only 2 weeks getting home, plus I've got a lot of studies to catch up on.

So that's about all the news for this week. I forgot the memory card to the camera so you won't be seeing pics this week, but don't worry, I'll keep ya covered for the next week k? So if there are any questions for me, hit me up, and I'll answer them the next week.
Nick seems like he's doing great. and it"s crazy to see that Scott's done with his mission. Wow! Yeah, I'll be done in no time, just gotta keep it goin big!!!
| Elder Nick Pinegar & Elder Alex Pinegar talking together for the first time in a year - May 13, 2013 |
Love you guys with all my heart, and just know that Ive always had y'all in my mind. You're my support!!! keep stayin fresh!!

Elder Pinegar
*Note from Mom: It was soo good to see Elder Alex on Mother's Day. It was tough making a skype connection--but after an hour of trying, Alex was finally able to find an internet cafe that had a viewable connection. He says he’s forgotten how to speak English—but he did alright for our Mother’s Day call. He was able to talk with Nick after a year. The skype call wouldn't work, so he ended up calling him on a land line. We're sure that was a happy reunion.
Alex should be coming home the 2nd week of August--he is still having his dates figured out. He serves as a co-senior companion as of now with another missionary who will also go home the same time as him. He lives in the house chapel (the small church) and doesn’t really belong to a branch—but a house church---so even smaller than a branch. He said they average about 30 people at church each week—and had 6 investigators this past week—which he was so excited for. Hopefully they will turn into a branch in the next 3 months…though he doesn’t know if he will end his mission there or not.
Love,
Elder Pinegar
