Thank you all for you emails and support as always! I have a full team behind my back helping me along the way and it is the greatest!
This week was a wonderfull week to grow my patience. I am learning so much and working really hard on it because if you dont have patience here you will spend all your time asking why me! and that doesnt do squat! We need to show our patience and the lord makes miracles! It may not be according to our needs and wants but his time!
I am growing to love the people more and more very week. This week we couldnt find a family we have been teaching since the beggining of my mission. The parents are pretty lame but the 2 young boys are stellar and progressing. We went to talk with them the night before sunday and the mom said they wont be going to our church this week and made it sound like she doesent want them going ever again either... My heart really broke. Not beacuse it meant there wouldnt be 2 more baptsims but becuase i had grown to love this family and want the best for them! We are gonna try something this week to get them to open up again so i will let you know how that goes!
Peru played Chile and Columbia this week and lost both games! We watch baisically evry minute because people pull out there TVS in the street and watch it all with a ton of drunk people! haha we would be in a lesson and here the entire nation errupt or begin to swear depending on who scored haha it brought out my Peruano pride and we used the games to get more contacts! haha
Our second counselor this week got up in front of the ward this week and just roasted everyone for how they aer raising there kids haha he had no mercy! My and elder parra were trying our hardest not to laugh!
Anywaya nothing much else happend this week everyone! Things are amazing down here and im trying on enjoying every minute! Im becoming pro at falling asleep on my knees praying haha There is no subsitute for Hard Work!
LOVE YOU ALL!
VIVA PERÚ, Elder Noel

HEY MOM!
GO AGGIES GO AGGIES HEY HEY HEY!!!!
I cant believe it!!! Honestly cant believe it! I love the aggies so much mom its heartbraking not being able to watch highlights haha
This week was alot better mom! I will let hayden tell you what went down with my comp but we are all back to normal! Haha it feels good to have a whole team on my back at home. Its like im on the moon and you all are my houston! haha So here we go with the esplaining part!
we live in San Isidro wich is a rich part of Lima. I live on a street called La Florida and we have to enter a gate then walk behind a home to get into our tiny Apt. There is a big patio in front and Parra likes to sleep there some mornings haha its really beatiful! our Apt. is about half the size of my old room and there is just enough room to get stuff done! however this week our landlords told us we should move out... they are both members that served missions but we haev to move because they said there gonna start renting the patio out to partys and dont think we should be there! So we are gonna be moving here int he next couple of weeks! We normally contact in Surquillo wich is really sketchy and smells like a mixture of weed and alcohal! Really sprirtual uplifting! haha talk about being in the world but not of it! I have made a habit of falling asleep on my knees alot especially in the mornings. its so hard to get going in the morning for me mom! Elder Parra usually sleeps in for awhile but is usually up and going for planning at 10 haha We are supposed to plan at night but he likes doing it in the morning so thats what we do! Im definetly gonna change a few things if i ever train but for now its alright! he is getting pretty Trunky haha its hard to work really hard sometimes but we get stuff done!
the old couple is getting worse. Now she is bed ridden and cant move her arm and can barely walk... We had interviews with president this past week so that was awesome!! He told us they still need there 3 assistencias so we dont know what to do.. just put in faith i guess! Pres. is awesome! He is all about obedience and working hard. He told us this past week that the Honeymoon is over. meaning there used to the mission now and theres no excuses for low numbers. i think in about 3 months we are gonna be one of the most productive missions!
The house looks awesome and tana is gone! Im glas you got the ties and hats! haha should have sent a letter as weel but i can do that for christmas. anywasy mom i love you so very much!!! PRAY ALWAYS AND BE BELIEVEING!
