Cambios...Transfers

It's a great day to be a missionary....
Hola! Todos...cambios..tansfers..Hermana Moody is going, and I am staying and getting a new companion on Tuesday. My heart is sad for her to leave yet I feel blessed to have served with her. The best trainer ever!!!!!
DO NOT SEND MORE STAMPS... they don´t work here.. but I would love stickers!!!! (**I sent her US stamps that work with the pouch system.)anyway real letter! Estoy bien! La obra está bien dura y díficil a veces pero vale la pena! No hay nuevos todavia. Sí voy a estar con Hermana Moody por un más día.. Vamos a tener y cambio de compañeras.. lamentablemente..Sí tuvimos 2 bautimos este semana. Tuvimos Martin y Wendy. Martin es un joven adulto. Y Wendy es la hermana de Rodrigo. Monica la otra hermana va a bautizarse  este semana. ***(In English, I am fine! The work is very hard and difficult at times but it is worth the pain! There are no new ones yet. ( 70 missionaries are flying to Peru this week on visitors visas to their respective missions. They will arrive on Tuesday, the 12th.)  We are going to have and change companions ...sadly...Yes, we had 2 baptisms this week. We had M and W. M is a young adult and W is the sister of R. M, the other sister will be baptized this week.)
FELICIDADES!!!! A Michael who is going to serve in Jacksonville, Fla.
We made pancakes as a distrito this wednesday and here is a photo of the pancakes! My owie is better!! It now is a scab.. and healing nicely! Jaja.. I did sing the kitties that song.. but softly so no one could hear.. OH one of the Elderes from my district LOVES Big Bang Theory!! and it is sooo funny!!! jaja It is Elder Palomo.. who the first week I was here I kept calling him Elder Paloma..and I started that habit again this week. thankfully I haven´t said it in front of him this week. So funny experience.. this week there were neighbor kids who were playing with a dead mouse throwing it at each other and trying to freak each other out, and the little kid threaten to throw it at me and I thought in spanish Voy a pegarte.. amarte.. jaja It was really cool how fast it changed from me wanting to hit him to love him... I felt very humbled at that point. Then a neighbor kid whose mother is a less
active and we have been teaching, said No, no a ellas! and WE WERE SAVED FROM THE DEAD MOUSE!!!  No more interesting foods.. although I have tried duck and it is good!!
THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO!!! AND ALL YOUR SUPPORT!!! AND LES AMO MUCHO!!! COMO EL ARROZ ACA!!!! ( Like the rice here!!)
CON MUCHO AMOR!!!!!!

Soft Kitty..Warm Kitty..and a little Owie


HOLA!!
I am great!!! Work is great.. but hard and frustrating but FANTASTIC!!!! I am really happy doing the Lord´s work!!!! It is a pleasure that He allows us to help His children!!! Hermana Moody is great! I got A2,3,and 4 the other day. (***I am not sure what that is, but I will ask her.) The walking is A LOT!!! jaja but great! My feet and shoes are great! Although Thursday primero de agosto was a great day.. okay sorta.. I have a funny story.. two..jaja so after we picked up a member to go with us to an appointment I hit my head on a bar... because I am soo tall here!!! jaja and then later that day. We were booking it! like walking pretty fast to one of our appointments because it is on the other side of town.. and I fell off the curb.. well I stepped wrong and fell.. jaja I scraped my ankle but that was it. My companion was laughing sooo hard she cried! jaja She told me she saw me and then turned around and heard me start to fall and then she turned and saw me finish my fall. jaja It was pretty funny! and it hurt for a couple days but now I am good!! jaja I am attaching a picture so you don´t think it was something more serious..because it was a baby owie.  ANYWAY!!!
Investigators are good! We have 3 fechas ( dates) for next Saturday and they are a guy.and two are the sisters of the boy who just got baptized. We haven´t had a wedding yet but there is someone who is helping us find all the necessary papers and the things we need. Transfers are on Tuesdays, the day after p day so people can pack. Sister´s conference was great!! So much fun!! It was fantastic to see almost all the sister´s from Provo again!!! I am attaching a pictures after the egg fight.. jaja and hopefully if I have time of Hermana Moody´s birthday and the baptism as well!
I CANNOT BELIEVE that they (***her siblings) start school again soon...
sooooooooooooo....0ooooooooo......ooooooo WEIRD!!!!!!!!! jaja It would be great if you want to send me stuff to celebrate AJ´s birthday! (*** we still celebrate his birthday as a family, usually his favorite foods, and balloons at the grave site.) ( ***Now for some sisterly advice...)
LIZZY!!!! A friendship is worth more than to fight... that is a problem in the church because we have the truth satan works twice as hard! I know it is hard to apologize.. but It is what Christ would do.. and it is what is needed if you want to be friends! and YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!  AND I MISS YOU!!!  Tell this to our kitties for me!!! Soft kitty.. warm kitty. little ball of fur.. happy kitty.. sleepy kitty.. purr purr purr!!!and LOVE THEM FOR ME!!! Also could you take a picture of them and email it to me!!
Satan is going to work twice as hard on people when they are going to church and are trying to go to the temple!! BUT IT IS WORTH IT ALL!!!!!! The blessings that come from the temple far outweigh the trials and troubles we face to get there and stay worthy to go!!!!!
Yes they did get rid of backpacks.. they want us to use side bags now...so if you could send me a good quality on that will last!!! I WILL LOVE YOU EVEN MORE!!! jaja and really appreciate it!!! ;D  Chancay is great!! We have good investigators and are working with the branch to make things better! We do have a DVD player in our apartment.
I LOVE YOU ALL!!!! AND miss you all soo much!! as much as the grains of sand on the beach here.. of the stars in the sky at night.. the drops of water in the ocean and the MILLIONS of GRAINS of RICE that I have eaten and will eat!!!!!  (***Mardi did not care too much for rice before her mission.:) )
GIVE MY LOVE TO ALL!!!! and tell my friends that I am writing handwritten letters to those who have written me because I have their address.. jaja but it might take a month to get there... jaja!!! Tell them to email if they want an immediate response.. well for next Monday... if I have time..:D
CON MUCHO AMOR,
Hermana Hyer
