!st week in Chincha

Holy cow there goes another week.....
Alright well this week went by really fast and just to inform you all even though you all already know.. this is the area where the earthquake hit 4 years back. well i have heard how horrible it was all this week. we were meeting with the members and they all told the same story of how they were in their houses and the earthquake started and they all lost everything.. and then the government said the earthquake was only 7.9 because if it was above 8.0 the government would have to pay to build the houses.. so all of the people of chincha are a little bit bitter that they dont have houses or that the government lied because they all say that it was much bigger than seven or at least bigger than the 8 that they needed it to be.. also one of the hermanos in the ward was talking to us and said that the church helped a ton and helped build 500 houses so that was pretty cool to find out that kevin and amy and family palmer were there as part of that..Anyway this week as mentioned we were meeting all the members and less actives in the area that we could.. we ended up having 16 lessons with members and that is a little bit more than normal.. haha but we also were able to pull 8 lessons with theless active members. it is a little bit stressfull because i only have so much time to get to know the area and all the people before my companion goes home and leaves me here alone.. but then next thing... this week was awesome,, i feel like my studying got like 2 million times more efficient. i was reading and really getting to know all i could from third nephi.. not gonna lie third nephi is awesome!!!!!!! it talks about everything in the world that we need. it talks of the trials of people, the blessings we can receive if we are obedient to all of the commandments that the lord has given us in these days.. Well i know this isnt very long but i want to wish cameron a happy birthday tomorrow and also want to tell emmalyn congrats on starting school. hope you enjoy it because you have a long time to go.. haha. you will understand that when your older.. hahah i am funny... but this was an awesome week my area is sweet as is my companion and wow i love this gospel and seeing how the church can help in different ways.. love you all so much and hope you have a great week.. things go really fast and i dont want to miss a day that goes by..
Love Elder Farr.Moore.orth,, equals awesome... haha the buttons dont work
