To my adorable family,
HOLA!!!! I seriously LOVE LOVE LOVE reading your emails!!!
You guys are the greatest! Sounds like everything is superb in good ole Orem, Utah!
So ... General Conference this weekend!! I am so EXCITED!!!! We are watching it on Saturday and Sunday, so that will replace proselyting this weekend. I seriously cannot wait to hear from the prophet and all the other
speakers!!! As a district we are all thinking of a question to think about
during conference!! Such a great idea!!!! And yes it will be in ENGLISH!!!
Hallelujah ... I have no idea how to spell that word ... but I seriously am so
excited for that! Oh and we will listen to Women's Conference Sunday night!
That will be so great! It really is such a blessing that we have conference!
Please take it seriously and don't just nap during that time. It is hard for
people here in Peru to even get access to a radio to listen to it. We are so
blessed to have Conference and I think sometimes we take it for granted! It is
such a great time to be uplifted and recieve answers!
Sorry I don't have a lot of time to write! Today we are so
busy!! We went to the temple this morning, we do that every Pday, and I LOVE
THAT TIME!!! The temple is incredible, GO AS OFTEN AS YOU CAN! The workers at
the temple here sometimes have to travel a few hours just to be there for a
little bit. They give up so much to be at the temple, and they have such a love
for it! Take advantage of the access you have to temples! It has come to be one
of my favorite times of the week!
I wish I had more time to talk about the CCM, but it really has
just been another lesson filled week. We are still practicing teaching
investigators and I still love the food! My schedule goes: study, eat, study,
eat some more, then finally SLEEP!!! I seriously love it here!! I promise I
will write more next week about it too!
THANK YOU FOR THE QUOTES MOM!!!! I always take a pic of them
and look at them throughout the week! I seriously needed every one of those!!
The church is true, and I am so grateful to know that!! And please read
your scriptures as often as you can! The words of the Book of Mormon are
incredible! I thrive off my time to study my scriptures! I love this
gospel, I love all of you so much, and I love that I am in Peru at this wonderful
time!!
Be obedient, pray always, and never forget who you
are!! I LOVE YOU ALL!
XOXOXO - Hermana Shumway

sure I am being the best missionary I can be!!! LOVE YA!!!
