Elder Cole Noel- Peru Lima Central Mission: July 15, 2015- Week 2 of the CCM

Hello everyone!

haha hows it going!? Thanks for all the emails and love and support i receive from all of you it is so amazing. So nothing real crazy happend this week! We had alot of class! Spanish is really coming along fast an i am so stoaked to get to the field!! Today was P-Day and so we got to go shopping and i bought a couple jerseys and some weird looking shorts things haha Eveything is awesome here! its super humid and hot but i like it alot actually! The food is the exact same every day wich is tough but oh well at least we get food lol. All my friends in the provo MTC get hooked up phat..... its whatever though! Haaha at the store i was able to place a book of mormon with a really nice lady named faviola and then on the bus ride back to the CCM i placed another with a kid my age. he said hes catholic and wants to be more involved but its hard to sometimes!!! I told him about the resturation and he seemed really interested!!

So apparently theres a tradtion called the Order of the Tie haha its super goofy but every transfer the old order of the tie inducts 5 new members and so me one of my companions elder williams and others got chosen haha. Its like major top secret so dont tell anyone ;) haha theres multiple positions and i am the holder of the tie haha. Its super lame but tradition so it will continue. In order to be in it you had to eat a super hot AJI pepper and write a rap that dissed someone included a scripture and a disney reference so you know i slayed. haha it was super funny. the old guys were awesome!!!!

So last night was the last night with the advancadoes and we had a huge tie exchange haha it was so funny every was like marketing their ties to trade haha it was so loud! President Gonzales wife got mad at us haha.

But things are awesome down here thank you guys so much for every ounce of support i get. I feel your love and your prayers. Please keep praying i need it lol.

Dad,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! i hope you had an amazing one! it sounds like you did! haha im glad you got clubs so your better now because your gonna need it ;) yah there is a golf course in lima but theres a net all around it because the holes go right in between buildings and stuff. its super ghetto lol. my companions are awesome. Elder hafer can be tough some times. He keeps complaining about how we wants to learn spanish so much but he wont do anything to learn it... its frustrating.. and he makes fun of me for stupid stuff like how im pidgeon toed or mispronounce a word haha but i know thats what he does to make himself fill better so im just trying to help him but othere than that things are awesome. a trio is weird but really cool. my companions were off doing something in a store today and so i placed a book of mormon and then on the way back from the store i placed antoher with a kid my age that spoke english. i hope he emails me. I love you dad. so much. its hard not having you hear teaching me everything in my life but its fine haha. its time for me to grow up but like i told mom i feel like i was born for this. God gave me special tallents to bless his children with the gospel. he has given me so much so i need to work harder and harder to develop those talents because this is what i need to do. i love you dad! Hope you had a good week!
