Shelby Quist: Week 74

Joseph Smith said ¨We are not only edifying the kingdom of God, God is edifying us¨ That is so true, this mission is refining me and changing me. I still have a long way to go too! And only 4 weeks to do it! I have grown to adore the scriptures, the temple, and the gospel. I am so thankful for the opportunity God has given me to serve him.

The mission also has its physical downfalls haha I'm a weakling! I have lost all my muscles haha. You would think that climbing hills all day, everyday would help...not really! Good thing I have a Gym....oh and a spa..I reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaly need a spa day.

I want to get you guys some cool stuff here. So this next week send me what you want ( extended fam ect...) We've got cool peruvian pants, hats, sweaters, llamas and earing and lots of other stuff Al Capone que quiere?

So that family we found. Not progressing ;( but its ok because after 2 weeks of trials from God -WE FOUND A FAMILY! Seriously these last 2 weeks have been crazy. We were doing all we can and then we find somthing more to do and think there is nothing more we can do, and still nothing was happening. But we pressed on and we got our family!These ones are chosen. I am so hopeful and happy!

Bad news Josue and Estefany...trouble in paradise. Couple problems that might put off their wedding! I have been working with them for so long and I just want to baptize them already! Satan is fighting haard!

But This Saturday is the baptism of CAMILA! She is soooooooooooooooo great! We taught her mom and are baptizing her. She knows the doctrine better than me!

I miss you guys and thinking about home doesn't even seem real. Like Adam said, a magical land that doesn't really exist.

Today we are going to HUANTA and it's going to be so pretty. I will take alot of pics and I will be safe! I love you guys!

They are invaiding my area!
