This week went by fast. I enjoyed myself. 

We taught a guy with a big pen of probably 100 cuyes (guinea pigs) in his house. I've realized thats why they eat them here. You buy 2 of them and within 2 weeks you have 100. They smell so nasty. 

They are paving all the roads in in the northern half of Chiclayo 🙏 this place is going to be a different world in a few years 

I was offered 5 cows and half a families property to move to Querocotillo (look it up cool place) and marry a guys daughter. Pretty tempting. I love the people from the mountains. I can't even explain how beautiful the little towns up in the mountains of peru are. The little tiny ones that only have 50 or 100 people. I miss being up there. I only ever was able to visit a few of them, but they are so dang cool. It was about a year ago that we pulled up on a few and were the first white people to ever step foot in one of them. Crazy. The people are so cool and literally live 100% off their property. It is seriously the coolest thing ever. They get up at 4:30, go grind on the land, harvest some potatoes corn and a chicken, cook dinner, go shower in the river, then go repeat again the next day. I could totally live up there (for 3 days maybe) 

I finished the green spanish book front to back doing every single practice. It's been about 5 months in the making for 30 minutes every day. That thing is a beast. I'd say this is probably the biggest success since Mr clay shirts. 

Transfers are this week not necesarily looking forward to it. I don't want to leave my companion. Me and elder Urias are just about as united as me and Jmat on senior trip. It's a good duo. 

I have been really focused lately on how I receive personal revelation and how the Spirit works in me. I didn't really pay a ton of attention to it up until a couple months ago. I did good things and did the Lords work but once I started to really pay attention to my personal revelation and promptings from the spirit, my mission has absolutely changed. I have a yearning desire to have the Spirit in my life and be guided by him. It is a feeling that I want with me all the time. When a little kid hits me on the shin with a stick and I want to slap him on the head or people in lessons do the "oooooo hermanito yo tengo fe. A ver. Te cuento" thing and go on a 20 minute rant and I get frustrated because the lesson isn't going how I want it to, I feel the spirit leave me. It is not a good feeling. It is so interesting being able to always feel and know if the Spirit is guiding me and blessing me. It is something relatively new for me because up until this point in my life I have felt the spirit with me but I haven't ever really payed attention and tried to notice it's constant influence. It has become a constant yearn and desire in my life. Focusing on this has changed my life and been such a blessing for me. 

Love you all. Christ is king.
