Happy March! And Birthday to Elder Jeffrey R Sorensen

Friends Family and Comrads,

How are you all doing? I hope everyone is well and everyone enjoyed that sweet BYU win of the Zags! (sorry Manny.)

It was another solid week here in the city. This week went by CRAZY fast...sometimes in the mission when days last long the weeks go by fast, and when the days go by fast weeks take long. Although this week the days and week went by fast...so really dont know what point I am trying to make.

Anways, it was a solid week. On Friday we had a SWEET ward activity. It was called Viaje a Hawaii (Trip to Hawaii) and basically heres how it went. We started in the Sacrament room with the projector playing some epic hawaiian scenery clips/music. Then we took a virtual plane ride (the projector/video inside the plane was awesome and super realistic!). And after a 10 minute plane ride including being served some bomb hawaiian fruit shishkabobs served by the beautiful flight attendants (us, 4 missionaries..lol), the plane crashed. And the Saint Peter popped out in all white and explained that weve all died and then had a tour of the 3 kindoms of glory...and hell. My room was the Celestial room and it was all white with tons of sweet church pics, white scriptures, and me chilling the all white, and with some MoTab music playing on the projector. It was super epic and the spirit was way strong...everything (including me) was so white and def felt like the temple. All the members had a great time and it ended super spriritual which was epic. Good times... 


This Saturday A was baptized and it was awesome! He is a 23 year old whos super poor and his whole family only speaks Quichua...their all straight indigineous so its kinda hard to communicate with his fam...but anyways. He was stoked to be baptized and is loving everything. He has already read like half the Book of Mormon and pretty sure now knows more about it than we do. He is awesome and what topped it all off was him rolling into the baptism with brand new church clothes that we scored from some membres/other missionaries. Overall it has been an epic change in this dudes life.


Some questions  (thanks Kent...knew you'd pull through)

Are you over your fat fever and back to good health? Yeah. Its all good and I'm back to normal. Hopefully will stay that way for a while...
Any time for workouts in the park? Not right now...my comp kinda hits the 30 minute shower every morning right at 6 30...so atm can't workout outside...but maybe with the next comp!!
What is the farthest you walk in your sector each day? Idk. Just today I was thinking about finding/buying/asking for a little belt pedometer like Jeff had...I honeslty have no clue. But some days...a ton. haha
How’s your toe doing (I won’t complain about my minor ingrowns)? The one I got surgery on is doing great...tomorrow Im going in to get a different one worked on...should be as major!

Love you all! Have a great week and know you are in my prayers by name.
