Greetings From the Good Ol' Land of Chee-LAY!

Greetings to all! from the good ol' land of Cheee-LAY!
I LOVE THE GOSPEL! I love it I love it I love it. I have a lot of thoughts in my head right now, and I'm not quite sure what to write all of you...I'm gonna try and make all of this make sense.

A few things that happened this week:

As far as this week goes Hermana Brady still had a little bit of the Fungus in her throat. We had a few hot and a few rainy days. I made banana bread. The other sisters had two beautiful baptisms. We tried to have a lot more lessons with members. I repented of a lot of things. Hna. Bustinza learned that sweets make you gain weight. We taught the law of chastity to 1. a 16 yr. old girl that is pregnant 2. two a couple that live together, have two children, but aren't married, and haven't been that faithful. Had a fantastic family night, topped with "calzones rotos" - scones with powdered sugar- translated means twisted panties. Delivered food to a single mother of 3 who's scraping by. Watched the Restoration video with Olga and she said that she's found what she's been looking for. I still have fleas. Went to the beach today for P-day with the zone, looked for sea shells and saw a live starfish. Recognized the importance and power of goals. My companion cooked Aji de Gallina - this delicious Peruvian chicken dish that has peanuts, cheese soda crackers and chili peppers. I finished the Book of Mormon. DIDN'T shave my legs. Drank fresh peppermint tea from the giant plant in our front yard. Realized the importance of focusing your thoughts. Saw SO many miracles Sunday morning. AND I slept really really good every single night...if you can imagine.

There was a lot more that happened, a lot more that I learned, and a lot more that I just won't ever be able to record. I hope it just reflects in who I am the next time you see me. I really thank my Heavenly Father for allowing me to grow and allowing me to realize how real and powerful this gospel of Jesus Christ is.

I hope everyone is doing well....Mitch, I know you're just doing such a great job with your lil' zone. Keep up the good work! Curt---ooooOOOoooo Russia? Paraguay? Canada? Japan? where's it gonna be man?? Regardless! Get your nose in PMG and BOM!! You'll be such a blessing to everyone you serve if you get it goin now :) You're awesome! Jed! I love the kitchen! Oh, it's such an adorable little room! and the grass! (I have to say, I haven't seen a lawn with mown grass forQUITE some time...it's really common for them to just take out all the grass, or have it overgrown) Amanda will be so happy, I'm sure. Rachy and Clinter I hope you keep up the adventures! Mom, if missionaries return to the valley-please give them your fabulous map. I'm making one right now, something similar, but they will love you. Dad, hope you had a fabulous b-day. I love you very very much.

I am so excited for everything that is happening in your lives right now! Keep up the great work of making your lives SO great. You're incredible examples to me of hard work and of humility and of love. I LOVE YOU! the CHURCH IS SO TRUE!

Love,
Hermana Ch-AY
