Dear Dad,
This week was nothing special. A lot of office work. I put in over 100 baptismal records in this week and as well helped in a special change. I have been running around all over the country this past week trying to make sure that the mission runs smoothly. I have been in the office longer than anyone else in the office right now and so i know how things work. I have been helping a lot of the other elders to complete their jobs while doing mine as well. Its a lot of work. i did get a new assignment for the changes this time. I am in charge of all of the missionaries that will be heading home this change, which includes my trainer Elder Fielding and all of the sister missionaries that came with me into the mission. It is pretty weird to think that it has been exactly a year and a half. I never thought it would pass this fast. and now the sisters in my group and my trainer are leaving in less than a week.I'm going to be able to take them to the airport at about 4:30 in the morning. It'll be fun!
I'm very excited for these changes next week because i think that i might train and leave the office in a few weeks after that. I'm so excited, I really want to dig into the work and leave the mission working super hard.
Well i that about it for me this week.
Hello Family and Friends,
I hope you all had a wonderful week. I sure did. It wasn't anything special but it sure was better than last week. This week was full of running all over the country trying to make sure that the mission functions correctly. That's kind of my job.
Well i corrected my mistake of ordering 20 beds that were way too small and i got new ones just yesterday Its pretty cool to see 20 beds stacked up on top of each other. jajaj but whats even better is the view from 20 mattresses high!! jajajaja

I also have the opportunity to be the District leader of the most baptizing district in the mission so i had the chance to go and give a baptismal interview in an area called Zeballos Cuè. This area is right next to the river and this past week it rained very hard last week so all of the housing that were close to the river were under water. We had to take a little bit of a hike to get to this house where i would give the baptismal interview. In other words, We went into the jungle. It turns out that she wasn't at her house so will do it today at a Capilla Abierta.
You know, that's about it for this week. I did take lots of fotos for you guys so i hope that makes up for the lack of words. jajaja
I know that this is the true church and if we live it, it becomes even more true.
I love you all and i hope you have a great week this week
Love Elder Petersen
