Subject: CH... CH... CH... CHANGES!!!!

Hey there everybody. Sounds like the summer vacations are going well for everybody. The weather here isn't hot, but its the Peruvian version of winter... like 50 degrees at night. Things are going pretty well. It looks like we ended up saving our area with the people we baptized these past few weeks, and they are going to leave it open. But we dont know the changes yet, so I'll have to verify next week. Last P day was pretty great, the sisters made peanut cookies. And me and Ferrer y Brinton felt bad so we ...''helped'' make home made root beer. Turns out we can't cook and the root beer was horrible, but it was a good time. We have also figured out just how HUGE our area is, it goes into another province. We have one guy who lives 6 hours away. The Bible teaches us to leave the 99 to search for the one lost... ROAD TRIP! Its just an idea but it probably won't happen cuz it's a bit dangerous cuz we'd have to travel in one of those buses that have all the chicken crates stacked on top.But we are going to have to start all over with investigators if they keep us open, cuz we've been spending this whole change working with the few people we have. But we have a family of 4 that might save us. Not much happened this week. We've been visiting the girl we baptized last week, Maribel, she's such a stud. We left her Ether 12 to read, and came back the next day and guess what... SHE READ IT, crazy. That usually doesn't happen. It's people like her that keep me motivated. And even though its a bit harder out here, there are people prepared out here. We have a lady named... well her name is Lady, and shes been to church close to every week since I've been here. But her hubby is a bum and doesn't want to get married, so we are really going to start working with those two. And as for Bolivia... ''NEXT MONTH''...(chuckle)
Dad- Have fun in France. That makes me glad I didn't have to deal with jet lag. Crystal- Sounds like a nice weekend, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you ate some corn while you were there.
EE- Ya I just heard that McNair was killed, bummer. Ya let me know about the baby. Valynn- Ya me and my comp get along great, he's a bit crazy though... and trunky haha.
KK- Thats good to know my trunky poster is giving missionary opportunities. Alright fam, until next time... Love you guys, I'll let you know more about the changes and all that good stuff.
Love Elder Wilson

COUNTDOWN

FAVORITE SCRIPTURE

2nd Nephi 15: 26-30
26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth; and behold, they shall come with speed swiftly; none shall be weary nor stumble among them.

27 None shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken;

28 Whose arrows shall be sharp, and all their bows bent, and their horses’ hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind, their roaring like a lion.

29 They shall roar like young lions; yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry away safe, and none shall deliver.

30 And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea; and if they look unto the land, behold, darkness and sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof
