Dear Mom,
My week was good. Angel Contreras Quispe was baptized on
Saturday! It was a great service. I will try to send pictures but right now it
is not letting me :( To answer questions first: I think the name Carter Dustin
Brinck amazing! My investigators... some are doing great, others good, others
ok, and some bad. But we`re gonna focus in the great and good. There is the
family Chavez that has been coming to church for the last 3 weeks and will get
married in December and baptized. We just got to hope and pray the papers get
here in time. Other families are also doing well and I will do my best to do my
duty and help them come unto Christ. My companion.... I don`t really have words
for it but we are going to get better. He is just a very stubborn child who
didn`t finish high school cause he doesn`t like to be told what to do or how to
do it. Makes it a little hard to teach him anything, but we`ll find a way. We
will find a way. As for Christmas, the only thing that I would love is two (or
more) big bottles of Sweet Baby Ray`s BBQ sauce. Other than that, there isn`t
anything of great need. One pair of my shoes ( the Eccos) are destroyed, but I
heard that all Eccos have a two year warranty that if you send a picture of
your shoes destroyed for natural causes they will send you a new pair for free
to anywhere in the world. If you could investigate that issue I can send a
picture. But for now I am fine with shoes, the Rockports are troopers and my
boots will last a lifetime.
I am glad and happy to hear of all the holiday festivities.
It makes me happy to know that all is well back home and permits me to work
hard all week and never worry about home. The pictures are great!!! The letters
you send get here in about 10 days and I get them every week or every other
week (or I WOULD get them) Haha ha. And here in Lima I can get what I need and
the mail gets here way faster than in the jungle. I hope I answered all the
questions, and if not let me know.
I am so happy to be on a mission and I love being in the
service of God. The Peruvian people are awesome and have earned a place in my heart
forever. The Lord Jesus Christ lives and nothing will stop Him from
accomplishing the work and the glory. I love you Mom
Love,
Elder Dustin Divis
P.S. When you see Riley Peper tell him I say hi. I tried to
send a picture. Let me know if you got it.
