Life here in Paraguay has been pretty loco as of late!! haha like always right??
Let me start off by saying that the sunsets here are absolutely beautiful! i snagged a couple of pictures for you guys to witness what i get to see almost everyday! Sometimes when im kinda sad about walking through a river for 2 miles to find someone thats not home, God puts some of the best tender mercies i could ask for in my sight! It seems to be almost always after a really tough day, there is a beautiful sunset above my head!
Along with that, i found a really happy dead dog on the way back home the other day! haha it kind of made me laugh a lil bit!
This week i had the opportunity to eat at a members house for dinner! we ate this really delicious chicken heart pasta!! mmmmm
Honestly Family and Friends i truly do love this work! I can feel myself growing closer to our Savior each and everyday. I learn so much everyday about this country, these people, this life and especially this gospel! I have found that the best way to obtain more knowledge about this gospel is to live it and study it! i have learned so much more than i ever thought i could about this gospel! Before the mission i felt like i knew it all, like every time i went to church i just heard the same things over and over again! I just wasn't looking hard enough!
I love this gospel and i can say now that it is the only true gospel on the earth today!
i love you all soo stinkin much!! have a great week!!
love elder Petersen
PS: Note from parents...
For years, Jeffrey's dad has taken him out in the desert to explore old ghost towns and ruins. Inevitably, there are cows roaming around and every time his dad has bet him $$ that his can't slap a cow!! He has tried MANY times, with no success. But apparently, cows in Paraguay are much slower because he "supposedly" slapped this cow! Hahahaha! Proud day : ) We don't think it's fair, because the cow is caged in but it's all about the little victories : )
