Well


Well it was great talking to you all. 
Cant believe how fast this time is going.  I shall miss the mission a lot but I am excited 
to see you all.  I must say this week shall go by fast.  I washed all my cloths this morning
and put the things I shall not use in the old suitcase of Hermana Yardley.  Today I have to 
finish buying my things and getting everything worked out.  I need to say my goodbyes this
week.  Shouldn't be to hard since I have only had two areas in Cocha and I work in them every 
day.  I just wish I could go to Potosi and Tupiza to say goodbye to everyone.  Well truth be told
don't have much more to write.  Have a great week and I shall see you all next. 
Have a great and safe weekend.

HI


Family,
 Lets see my comp is great.  Very sarcastic which is a good thing.  She has been a member 7 years.  She was the only member until Feb which is when her dad got baptized.  She has 6 people in her family.  I did not speak in Church yesterday but the Bishop asked us to speak this Sunday.  We also went to talk to him on Friday and we asked if there was anything we could do to help him and he gave us a list of people to visit.  He also said that he wanted an activity for theObra Misional I dont remember how to say that in English.  We came up with a movie and we will be watching 17 miracles this Friday. Our poster board is great but he also said that we need to do something else also.  They called new ward missionaries so we shall use them to our advantage.  They don't really know what to do so that means that we are having a training for them.  We will be teaching the lessons that we teach so that they can go out and help with the less actives and new members.  Well lets see with the travels they stunk a lot.  I threw up 5 times in the bus.  The trip started off fine and I even fell asleep then I woke up and was listening to the conversation of the Elders in front of me ( I now know a lot about the mission because the Elders here gossip a lot).  Then I felt the feeling come that I was going to throw up.  I asked them for a bag and there went my food (I think because I couldn't see it was dark).  Then I just talked to them a little bit more sat back in my chair and once again the feeling came.  I asked for another bag (because I threw the other one out the window).  Then something else came up.  5 min later we came to the rest stop I got out and I was still feeling fine just throwing up.  Got back on the bus to go and about 15 min into the ride I got out my own bag and then came up more.  I wont keep going because you know what happened next.  Then I finally fell asleep.  I don't know why I was throwing up I wasn't car sick and my stomach didn't hurt at all.  One of the Elders, Elder Huber just kept asking me a bunch of questions and then he came to the conclusion that it was a Spider bite because I wasn't hurting anywhere. Who knows it could have been a spider bite.  Lets see Cochabamba is good its weird being so close to my first area.  A lot of things have changed since a year.  This week has been hard I can tell my comp never made the decisions before because she seems a little lost but I just tell her she can do it and we keep going.  I just asked her what house we are going to knock on and she looks at me like I am crazy but I wait for her to tell me where and when.  This transfer will be good.  There is something that I need to learn here in the next weeks, I am excited to learn and to find out what it is.  Last night my comp and I invited theHermanas who we live with to come to our room and have a party with us since we get to the house early on Sundays.  We cooked Hamburgers and had snacks.  We got to know one another during this time.  The only bad thing is that one of the sisters is new and she is now sick.  We don't know if it was from the Hamburgers or from the food she ate earlier in the day.  I just hope that it is the food from earlier.  Well there isn't much that I can write or say but I love you all and remember that the Church is TRUE
