Dear Family!
So this past week has been a crazy
one! We went to the zoo P day and it was so much fun! It was a
different one than last time, it was a lot nicer and it felt like we
were in the rainforest! I got some sweet pictures!! So the baptism
with Daniel got postponed to may 5th! he just needed some more time,
plus he had to have another interview! We were sad because we didnt
have a baptism this month but, hey its better for them to be ready, and
actually want to be baptized! He is an awesome kid, and really has come
so far since we first started teaching him! He will be a powerful
missionary some day! Things are going great here, we are gaining more
and more investigators everyday, and this area has truly come alive!!
We have been so blessed!!
So i have some news, but dont worry! While we were playing soccer
thursday morning i got hurt. I was trying to save a ball and as i got
to the edge of the field, there is a little drop off, from the cement to
the grass, and i fell down, and steped wierd and injured my knee it
kind of went the other way for just a second then poped back. After
that i couldnt walk. Right away we took a taxi back to our house and
put some ice on it and called Hermana Blunck. She had the secretary
call the doctor and set up an appointment for me to get it checked out
that day. Elder Divis my Zone leader took really good care of me,
making sure i had ice, getting me drinks, and making sure i was taking
ibuprofen. Then later that night we went to the hospital to get it
looked at. Dont worry mom its the best hosptital in Peru, the doctors
studied in The States and know english! They took X Rays, and found out
that all the bones are good, we dont need to worry there! But they
think it might have something to do with the ligiments. But they want to
make sure! So that night i stayed with the offices guys in there
house, and hung out in the offices all day. I rested all day, iced, and
took my pill they gave me! Then we had an appointment for saturday to
get an MRI Scan So we got that done, and everything went good. We will
find out the results on Wednesday, and dont worry you will be informed!
Everything is fine! please dont stress! Im am being really well taken
care of! Elder Huiquimilla who is one of the secretarys here, who
takes care of those who are sick, and Elder Essig have been taken really
good care of me!! They always makes sure im icing, taking meds,
resting my knee, and making sure i eat! Dont worry at all, it hurts but
i dont think its gonna be too serious! We just need to have faith and
pray to our Heavenly Father. Im a little bummed because we were doing
so well in our area, and now im stuck in the offices for a little bit.
But i know that everything will be ok! I have been called to serve
here, and there is no way im gonna let a little knee injury get in the
way of bringing people unto christ!! I am loving it here! I am so
lucky to be here it! It is such an amazing oppourtunity. Family i hope
this email didnt stress you out too much! I promise you will be
updated! Dont worry at all, Heavenly Father will keep me protected, we
just need to trust him!
Im so glad you enjoyed your trip to the Bahamas, you guys deserved a nice vacation, but im still jealous!! Haha
I
heard about great grandpa, i was so sad to hear, but then i thought how
happy he is to be with great grandma! I bet he was so funny before he
left!! He was such and amazing man, and he will be missed, but know
that he is so happy right now, and he will always be with us! Mom dont
beat yourself up. You had no idea what would happen, but know that
grandpa loved you so much. His spirit will always be with you, guiding
you. And the best part is we WILL see him again. How lucky we are to
know this promise, as long as we live our lives and follow the lord we
are promised eternity. What a blessing! That is so cool that President
Monson came and spoke! I cant wait to hear a copy of it!!
Im glad to here that things went well with Grandma Crump!! I pray
constantly everyday for her! Let her know how much i love her!! Im so
grateful for her and her love for all of us, and her love of the gospel.
She is an amazing woman, and i love her so much!
Thats great to hear about the safety stuff you are doing in the
neighborhood!! Im glad that you guys are prepared!! Dont worry we have

20 seconds, and dont do any damage, but dont worry ill be prepared if we
