Family!! So this week was a really solid week, not gonna lie i learned that all of my district has low animos.. animos how can you say that in english.. they are very low on gas.. they arent happy .. i dont know ask justin maybe he has learned how to say that by now..haha but anyway i have been really trying to make things better and get their attitudes up and happy, not sure if it is working or not but i am trying to do all i can.. i feel like its a challenge not because i am sad because i am really happy here. the thing is that there is a missionary from my group that finishes with me and he is super trunky!!! and he is ruining his area faster than i am writing this letter.. it is ridiculous, and he doesnt really listen to me. so i cant get him to work hard happily, because he has the same time that ive got... so that is kinda lame and with him not listening, his companion doesnt do too much either.. but ya i am here working with them.. but the area is going well we were able to put two people with baptismal dates and little by little my companion is seeing that our ward is a good ward.. so that is good.. haha but i love this gospel, i have had to bear my testimony more than normal this week and i know that a testimony is strengthened as we share it more and more. This is the best work in the world and i dont want to do another job... or study....hahaha but i love you all and hope you have a great week and that my niece comes out here soon so that next week i can see pictures!! haha Love Elder Farr+Orth+Waite+Whitehead+ Farah+Future Whitehead=AWESOME

Well Momma Bear!!! So this week i will tell you why i always wanted to come here to chorrillos.. it is a very simple reason.. one because it has the coolest name two because it was like surco.. with cool things such as mcdonalds and good food restaurants and things of that sort.. but it isnt all rich people like surco.. it has people from villa el salvador. but the benefits of surco.. so ya.. that was simple.. and well this week was really good.. my companion is awesome he is from argentina and so he is a che.. haha ask jeff or brian what that is.. i believe they should know.. he is really chill and as i said he is quiet but he is opening up little by little.. and well in the change yes i am still district leader and in my district we have my companion who has 5 months in the mission and then two new gringos that are in training one of them in his first change that got here last week and the other one in his second change.. they are both solid.. one of them is from millford he is cool.. and the other one is from some part of wyoming... a little bit strange.. but he is ok.. about what to expect from a wyoming right?? haha but this week was a good week.. we dont have too many investigators here right now.. i dont know but it seems like we got some work to do with the ward, seeing how my companion who started his mission here doesnt know any of the leaders because his trainer didnt find that important.. so it is kinda like we are starting from nothing. but hey that means we get to search for people and there are a few members that are always willing to help us in the work.. one of which is always there to go and do visits with us.. he is michael and i think he added you guys on facebook to be his friend because he is always with us and he takes pictures that he is going to put on facebook.. he served in bolivia santa cruz in 2006 ish.. he is cool.. but this week should be a really good week and i will let you know how it rolls.. You guys are all the best and hope you have a excelent week on the lake without me.. and i will have an even more excelent time down here in peru, finding people to teach the gospel.Well Enjoy.. a DC just for me..

Goodbye Mala-Hello La Campina

Elder Herrera
Well Family!!!! So this week as some of you may know by now.. We got to help some doctors treat some patients here in Mala.. it was really cool because we got to do all the translating for the diagnosis´ and things like that to help both sides of the line... it is really strange being able to translate for other people and not gonna lie now i know that it does come in handy.. but it was really weird speaking English with other people who aren't missionaries because i am pretty sure that here in the mission we mostly speak a broken English and when we don't know what to say all we do is say the word we want to in Spanish.. but with the doctors that wasn't so much an option.. haha but it was a great experience and we were able to find some really good new investigators also.. so we really got to do some good work down there... And i guess if you understand that line that i just said you understand that i got changed!!!!! haha that's right i totally just threw in an English something or other.. haha i got changed to the zone of my dreams.. where i have wanted to be since i started the mission but never actually got here.. and now i do get to be here in the zone of Chorrillos.. it is a zone that is in Lima again so that is kinda awesome.. because i love Lima and my time in the south is up.. but my area is called la Campina.. and it is awesome looking.. my companion is Elder Herrera he is from Argentina and he seems like a really chill missionary.. he is quiet so that means that i get to start the conversation but that's all good ain't got no problem with that... haha well i know that the work in Mala will continue and i am excited to be in a ward again that works.. from what people have told me, my ward works hard so i am excited to get to work here!!! it will be legendary for these next two changes.. well that's all for today.. i love this work and really being a part of the lords army..
