I Think I Am Ready To Go

In an email this week, Justin wrote, "Still haven't heard anything about Bolivia, but I assume and hope that I'll be there in about a week. I figure they won't say anything until the changes that come this Saturday, then maybe Monday , Tuesday or Wednesday I'll be on a plane there. But you or I probably won't know until it happens. You'll probably find out once I'm already there. I think I am ready to go. I have kind of been separating myself from all the Peruvian stuff emotionally this past week or so since I've known, getting ready for the move. I don't think I'll be too sad. I'm excited for a change. It might just be because I have been in one area with one companion for 6 months now. I think I'll accept any sort if change that comes my way."

He wrote that summer is finally coming to an end and says, "It's great." It is still hot during the day, but not as hot. The nights are colder and he says it's nice.

They are working with the Quispe family, getting them ready for baptism. There is the dad, Luis, Margarita the mom, and Yeveli the daughter. They have not been showing up at church and that is something Justin is working on with them. Their goal is to get baptised as a family the 25th of April, but to do that they have to come to church as a family for the next two Sundays. Justin thinks he will probably be gone by that time.

He is excited about the new bishop that was called in the ward. "I think since I have been here we have had about 18 baptisms and most are active with callings and everything. Vicki showed up to conference Sunday in Pisco which is about 45 minutes away right now and we didn't even tell her about it. She is great. We happened to run into her niece so we are going to start teaching her as well."

"Well until next week. Hopefully it is an exciting big week. We'll see. Love, Justin"

He is living everyday in hope of "the phone call!"
