Four Months In The Jungle!!!


I seriously cant even believe that I have been on my mission for four months. Time seriously flies! I have finished three transfers and were just waiting to hear whats going to happen this next transfer. I really hope that Ill still be here in Pucallpa, but Im excited to work in whatever area Im assigned to. I have really loved working here. This week was a little bit uneventful. We worked a ton. We contacted new families that were are going to start teaching this week and Im so excited about it. Its going to be so great :) We had a little bit of a sad experience. Luisa, our sweet investigator who was supposed to be baptized this week, moved to a village in the jungle to take care of her mother. We are really happy that shell be able to be with her family, but it was a little disapointing that our only baptism from this transfer fell through. I feel like everytime we help someone get to the point where they can be baptized, they move. I know that everything works out how its supposed to and that they will join the church when the time is right. Im just so happy that I had the chance to get to know Luisa and her adorable little family. I cant wait to teach more families this week! Hopefuly they wont move away haha! I love the chance to meet knew people everyday and teach them about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. Its hard work, but its worth every second because I know that what were doing is important and is changing peoples lives. This week I also had the chance to do service with my companion at the home of a member named toti who has every time of jungle tree in her back yard and it was great! I love you all so much and I hope you have a fantastic week. 
Con Amor, 
Hermana Toponce
