Hi, Mom
Timpanogas sounds fun, I still remember a little bit of the time we went, glad everything is going good at home, things are good here.  We had some cool experiences this week, we are teaching a lot more with the Book of Mormon, and it makes a difference.  I started to learn a few words in Qechua this week, since it's the native language here.  We've been working more with our group leader this week in Lucre, it was sweet, at the end of the day he took us to see some pre-inka tombs, that was awesome, and told us a few of the old stories from here, there is tons of ancient stuff where we are at. Well nobody came to church this week.   There was a ¨Lake festival¨ yesterday, and whenever there is a festival everyone has to be drunk in the streets, so that's nice.  I find it interesting when we start talking to people that are still mad at the Spanish for how they destroyed their culture and stuff, and how they brought the Catholic religion to Peru and all that, but at the same time they remain stuck to their traditions, which are VERY strong here.  I feel like I'm really striving to do my best as a missionary and my companion too.  If we keep doing all we can to do our part and follow the spirit we'll be alright.  Love ya mom, talk to you next week!
