Just another week here at the CCM. They cycle in new
missionaries every three weeks so all the missionaries who were here for 3
weeks left to the field yesterday. One of them, Elder Nichols, looked EXACTLY
like John Green. He declined to take a picture but trust me I asked him to say
''Except for the Mongols'' at least three times. Today is the first day that
all the new missionaries come in and they look so young. I remember when I was
their age.
I think I have finally adjusted to this missionary lifestyle. It is
no longer painful to wake up at 6.30. Three weeks left and then I will be in
the field, then I will have some real stories. Also Elder Thatcher and I got
our hair cut today, and by that I mean we got destroyed by the barber. I
actually don't think I look that bad. I have a mirror selfie with a giant
camera for reference.
Since my time at the CCM, my favorite word has become
''duende'' and my favorite phrase is ''¡Que en el mundo!''Here I have a picture
of the Lima Temple. It is humble against the large and noisy city, but it truly
is very powerful and loving. Our district has set a goal to improve our charity
since we are now the older ones here. I will let you know how it is going by
next week, but as for right now I have talked to several new Elders so already
I have made some progress.
