lets see....last pday rossy wanted to look at my photos, so we sat down and looked at all my photos that i have from my mission. then maritza and i made a bet, but we both broke it. so we got to do each others hair how we wanted to...haha (pic below) then it was the branch presidents sisters birthday so she invited us to lunch and we all ate together which was fun. that night we had a family night with rossy, her brother and a couple other members..(bic below).

Tue. while we were waiting for the branch president to come out with us noemi and i had a contest to see who's signature was better...although its sad that a 8 year old girl beat me...but ya. then we had a lesson with a girl named juldi...she literally talked for like 1 1/2 hours strait....uggghhh. 

Wed. i did a work visit with Elder Bravo he is a good guy, we had 2 lessons that were both over an hour long...and he didn't let me talk once during them both which made me mad. we had a lesson with a family and the dad was a complete jerk, while we were teaching he would blast his music, and he ended up kicking us out of his house. 

Thu. Elder bravo and i messed with some dumb animals...there was a cow, a couple turkeys, and a couple sheep. we made a cow sound....and the turkeys gobbled....then we made the turkey sound...and the sheep made their sound..uhh but it was super funny. then that day we had the gran opportunity to hear from Elder Godoy of the seventy which was great he focused on the atonement and he blew my mind. great to be in the presence of a general authority! that night my comp and i talked for a long time cause my comp feels like he should go home. so we talked for a long time! 

Sat.. in the morning we had to go to chiclayo so my comp could talk to president williams about his desires of going home. but he has fasted and prayed and he feels like he should go home...so im pretty sure that next week he will be gone. 

sun. that night i just chilled and talked to angeles and tereza and they messed with my hair again. and i figured out that i am finishing my mission here in morrope. so that been my week...love you guys!!!

Elder Moore

a cafe rio.....sweet!! and it was great to talk to you guys too!

so i didn't talk a lot about my week yesterday...so.

Last Wed. it was the last district meeting for 2 elders in my district so i had them bear their testimonies at the end and their testimonies were amazing! after i started  a exchange with Elder Bond and i stayed in Morrope. it was my day 666 so i thought i was going to be pure bad luck. but all the day we were in lessons, so i think it was a pretty good day. but we did go by one guy...while we were going to his house i heard his son say..."dad its the missionaries...RUN!" and we saw him as he just turned the corner in his house...and when we asked if he was there..they said that we was not...

Thur. i had interviews with the mission presidents which i always love those as i have already mentioned! he told me that i was going to finish my mission here which i am super excited for! then the assistants checked our agendas to see if we are using them how we should.

Fri. i did another exchange with Elder Rodriguez in his area. the entire morning we cleaned the baptism font for the baptisms that they were going to have which was fun. then i gave 2 baptism interviews to 2 of his investigators. and it was the first time in my missions that someone that i interviewed wanted a picture with me...so that was cool. that night we had a lesson with the guy who was going to get baptized, in the house of the 1st councilor of the district presidency...and he is a funny guy. Elder rodriguez goes home in a week. so he left his farewell book so they could sign in it. and the 1st councilor looked through 20 magazines until he found a pic of a black baby and put it in his farewell book..HAHA (cause elder rodriguez is black)...haha then i returned to my area that night. that night maritza and angeles taught me some math..ha

Sat. the branch was going to have a mothers day activity so Rossy and our penion came over and were making cakes for the activity. so i had a cake batter fight with them which was awesome! then we got invited to the activity so we went and it was pretty cool. after we were doing weekly planning and our pension called me downstairs, when i came downstairs. Rossy blindsided me and attacked me with frosting for revenge from the fight in the morning...haha. I'm gonna miss the members here they are so cool! 

Sun. our pension went out of town for a day. so we ate lunch with the branch president, his wife, and his son. then skyping was amazing...so ya. Love you guys!!

but i will be skyping at 4 peruvian time. and i will look for that shoulder bag for you.

so last pday we celebrated the bday of tereza and angeles (the branch presidents daughters) pic below.

Tue. to start off for 2 weeks we have been looking for a refrence from the pension, and we havent been able to find 

his house. so tuesday we were walking and i felt like i should go knock a house that was on a corner. i went and 

knocked it only to find his wife who has been waiting for us...so im so thankful that i listened to that prompting! that

 afternoon we taught 3 families we found (the lesson we were all together) and 2 of the moms whos names are Berta 

and Maria accepted baptism for the 3rd of June! they are great! after president and his wife took us in their moto, 

its like half a motorcycle with a truck bed attached to it...if you can picture that. so we were in the back with his wife,

 and we had to go up and down big sand hills and it felt like we were on a rollercoaster...just without saftey. that night

 i helped maritza and angeles with their english homework. then we passed by a couple named alex and luz who are

 great. alex had his date and everything. we passed by only to find alex drunk . 

Wed. i did my class. then i did a exchange with a new elder named Elder Pineda from Florida. we went by Berta

 and she told us the owner of her land got upset and was going to kick them off and they were going to loose

 their homes. but we had a great lesson about the plan of salvation. and for these last couple days we have

 been praying for them and their house. on Sat. we passed by to find out the owner changed his mind...prayer

 works! so ya later that afternoon (still on wed.) we passed by alex and luz to talk to them. they invited us to

 tuna and crackers and we talked for like 20 min. then alex said we is moving to work..:( so we have lost him,

 we left him with a book of mormon so he could take it with him, hopefully he does whats right. that night angele

s (presidents daughter) and i had a paper sword fight which was way fun! 

Thu. in the morning we went to Elder Pinedas area to finish the exchange and we spent a big chunk of time in

 their room telling jokes...haha. that night all of presidents daughters and family wanted to do a paper sword fight.

 so we all got togehter and we had a huge battle all of us which was also way fun! 

Sat. we helped the pension move sand for a hour, then we had to go to lambayeque cause i had to give a baptism

 interview. 

Sun. we went by a investigator in the morning to get him for church. but his son came home drunk saturday night

 and broke the glass on their door, then ran off, we passed by at 8:30am and his son still had not returned. so he

 had to wait for his son to come home. just kinda sad. then we did a huge visit we got the president, his wife, a

 member named alex and his sister Rossy. and we just went and visited 3 people.

Monday (yesterday) we helped the pension move sand again. and we went and chilled and talked to tereza and

 angeles and ate watermelon for a little bit. then we did a family night with a recent convert named orlando. so

 for the most part i think that has been my week. Love you guys! cant wait to see you guys sunday!

Tue. we had a mulit zone which was also way fun, although i did say goodbye to a lot of my friends that i wont see again before i go home...kinda sad. but it was a great multi zone! Wed. i did a exchange with Elder Wright he was my MTC comp so that was cool to work with him again. we contacted a  guy..we taught him the book of mormon, he himself read 3 scriptures out of it....when we tried to give it to him, the thought it was in english then he was like.."oh so it starts with Genesis, then  Exodus, etc" so we had to explain again that its NOT the Bible...uuugggghhh. Thu. the branch president invited us to lunch again, we ate like rice soup with shrimp... 

Fri. we were passing by the branch presidents, and i played soccer with 2 of his daughters. sat. the pensions son got baptized, and he wanted me to do it! so i had the pleasure of baptizing him! then we had a huge lunch with half the  branch, way fun! Sun. it was the birthday of tereza and angeles (they are the branch presidents daughters) so we got eggs, water, flower,etc and we had a complete battle, also way fun! so i think that's been my week.

OH MY GOSH....I AM SSSSOOOO EXCITED FOR THE CRUISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am so ready to relax and just spend time with you guys!

so my week went something like this, last pday we saw a trailer for a new starwars movie! (ill be home to see it in theaters!) That night we had a family night with the branch presidents family. we talked about missionary work. and i had some of the daughters do practises. i pretended like i was one of their little girlyfriends and they had to testify to me and help me understand. it was supper funny, but at the same time, super spiritual! (pic below) 

Tue. we were contacting and i saw a stray cow, so i called it over like a dog..ha. but i got to pet it! so that was cool. 

Wed. i gave my class, i hid Easter eggs that the elders had to find. i tied it in with every area had hidden eggs (people) that we need to find. i also gave a process of how to "open the egg" that was a great class! later we came back and to our room to find that a spider had hatched its eggs....ON OUR BEDS! so there were hundreds of little spiders on our beds.. so not cool! so we went and got spray and downed the room, so i think i got most of them. 

Thu. i got to give another baptism interview which was cool, with guidance from the spirit, i am the person who decides if they are ready to start their journey to the celestial kingdom...crazy. 

Fri. the branch president invited us to lunch, we ate chicken that didn't look or taste like chicken, but it was amazing! (pic below) we had a great lesson with alex and luz...(inv.) and alex said he wants to be baptized! but his wife still doesn't feel that way. but we are going to hit them hard! 

Sat. the daughters of president were putting ropes around my legs trying to trip me, by the end they threw me down...hard..ha. 

Sun. lambayeque is a district not a stake so we had district conference which was great! so i think that's been my whole week.......i love you guys! and I'm excited to cruise with you guys!

Elder Moore

glad to hear that you are doing better. no he is going home a week after i go home so he can trane the new president. we cant take motos anymore cause lately they have been robbing missionaries. my comp and i are great. I love my new ties! I'm saving one of them for when i go home. So not a lot happened this week. Tue. we helped the husband of the pensions daughter by the pool again. he got on a ladder and he had me be the base. so i was the only thing keeping him from falling. and he is kinda a chubby dude...so my arms were burning!  that afternoon we passed by a convert to do service, but her brother wasn't there so we couldn't help her, i feel bad cause she is missing half of her roof, and nobody is there to help her...Wed. i gave my class, and i got a special visitor...the mission president! so that kinda flipped my out. but it still went amazing. that night we taught a couple about the word of wisdom, and we have been teaching them for a while, and they had to choose that night to invite us to coffee..ha instead they gave us bread and anìs. Thu. the branch president invited us to squid and octopus, which was flippin amazing! those two things together are just awesome! Sat. we passed by a inv. and he told us that his mom told him to tell us not to come back...so its like really lady, you cant just tell us yourself...Sun. we got a couple at church that we have been trying to get to come for a long time! and they really enjoyed it. that night i talked to the branch president and his family, and can i just say that i flippin love them! they are so cool, I'm gonna miss them when i leave....but ya thats pretty much been my week. i love you guys! and i hope you guys have a great week! its been a hectic week so i didn't have time to take photos :( love you guys!

my package was great! 

So to start off, last pday sucked! we went down to lambayeque to do a lot o things that needed power, and when we got there...there was no power. so we spent all pday down waiting for power to come back on. that night the branch president and his wife, and the second councilor and his wife came to celebrate my late birthday. they made me a cake and in the end thy cracked eggs on my head. (pic below) Tue. we got a new location for the church building so we went over to see and i found a member from one of my old areas, so i talked to him for a min. that night the daughters of the branch president didn't get to break eggs on my head, so they did it again, (pic below) so that was fun. Wed. we did service for the husband of the pensions daughter. we helped him pull weeds by a pool. that night we had a great lesson with a couple who are living together..and are not married. so we watched "together forever" and it was just a great lesson. Thu we passed by a new guy we found, so we passed by, and instead of finding him, we found 2 very disrespectful Jehovah's witnesses. then my comps lock on his suitcase changed passwords on its own. so we took it over to presidents and we spent like 20 min trying to pick it. in the end we just ended up cutting it. Fri we had zone conference which was great. after i did a exchange with Elder bravo from Lima, we went out with president, he took us to a ancient inv. and by the end of the great lesson, she accepted baptism! Sat we did more service by the pool, then we ended the exchange. now we cant take moto taxis, so we had to walk forever! Sun. one of presidents dogs almost killed a duck, so i saved its life. and while i was bringing it back to its owner...that little thing pooped on me! . then i found out that i will most likely finish my mission here in Morrope. so that's been my week, i hope you guys have a great week! and i hope mom gets better soon! Love you guys!!
