Hola Familia!

Well, it seems like you guys have had a great week up there in Alabama. I think it's crazy that they're still debating about building a new high school or not. They just need to be direct, make a decision and stand firm about it. Sometimes it's just a lot better that way. It's something I've learned during my time of being a leader here on the mission. It's always great to hear the opinions of the people. It helps you to see what they think, but sometimes as a leader you just have to make a decision and go with it and make it awesome so that it benefits the majority of people. I hope that they will be able to make a decision soon about this.

I saw the picture of Samuel on Dropbox! Whoo! Those medals look fancy, and that Hair- Samuel has long hair now! Thats awesome! I think he needs to watch out for the ladies though... But seriously, its super awesome that Samuel is doing so great with the trumpet, keep it up dude!

Well down here in Lima Peru, were doing just fine!

We just went through a giant wave of politics. Right now there are elections for president and they just had a round of voting but nobody won. There are only 2 candidates for President, PPK and Keiko. The Peruvian people really get fired up and excited about this kind of stuff. They're going to vote again in June. It's the last round so we will see what happens. Other than that everything's normal. We're having a hard time finding people that progress. We can find new people, but they don't keep their commitments to read and pray. We have a few people that are really starting to progress though. One is the wife of a recent convert and the other is an 18 year old guy that we found. This guy has been shot and stabbed and wants to change his life. He reads and listens to us almost everyday. I think he's awesome and if he goes to church this week everything goes well then he can get baptized this May! Other than that we're teaching a bunch of less actives and were trying to get to know the members better so that we can be Complete Missionaries, or in other words, missionaries that baptize, rescue, and retain converts at the same time! Whoo!

Near where my companion lives there was an extremely strong Earthquake, his family is okay, but his country is in bad shape. If you guys could pray for that- it would be super awesome! Thanks!

I'm not sick, my companion and I get along just fine, and we're working hard here in Lima!
Love you guys a ton!
