It's GO TIME!

"So I am officially within 5 days of being shipped out. I am so excited, its kinda crazy but the last couple of days my ability to understand Spanish has really clicked and I am beginning to understand the Latino accent and its such a relief for me.
We just got back from immigration and I am now officially a Peruvian Citizen. While we were sitting there a lady came and talked to us in English. it took me a sec to understand what she was saying but then I realized she was speaking English I understood. She was from Europe and she has lived in Peru for two years. She is a member and her mom lives in Logan Utah. It was pretty fun to chat with her for a while. While we were waiting we had to sit and wait in line. And it just so happened that there was a nun on the middle of the bench. So Elder Smith and I sat on one side and two other elders sat on the other. I wish I had a picture of that. A man came up and told us that this would be a classic photo. A catholic nun in the middle of four Mormon Missionaries. Classic. We also met a man there who is working in the Peru for a while. He is from New Mexico and it was great to chat with him. He was pretty quick to give us the latest scores from College BBall and stuff.
President Gorberg has officailly taken over the reins here at the CCM. He is quite a bit different from President Crayk but he is still an amazing guy. I haven't had to much of a chance to really talk to him yet but hopefully i will.
Tomorrow we are going out and knocking doors again, except this time my comp wont be Elder Mollo, its going to be Elder Smith. So with two very green North Americans we are going to attempt sharing the word. I am way excited though, i love actually working with real people with real problems. The CCM scenarios are good but its best when we get to talk to actual people.
President Nelson´s talk was so amazing. We heard from him on Saturday as well as Sunday. And at the stake conference he was talking at the First Lady of Peru was present. She then came over to the CCM and we got to meet her. It was a very eventful weekend.
This is my last letter from the comforts of the CCM. I am very excited to be out among the people. These people are all so very humble and yet they are very happy.
I hope everything is going great. I love hearing from you and knowing that you are all doing great. Thanks!!!"
