Christmas items that would be very useful umm...socks are a bit of a need... several of them have holes. a deck of cards for boring pdays haha, ties are always a good option.The only things you shouldnt send would be perishable items or anything that would cost a lot. The packages have to be under $100 (i would suggest leaving it well under $100) because otherwise I have to pay like $80 in taxes just to get it....yah you´d be better off sending two small packages than one big one becuase big ones take forever to get here. My comp just got a halloween package that was fairly large about a week ago. So smaller is defintely better, and if you just say on the little declarations thing that its gifts or missionary supplies it gets through a lot better. And if you you put all around the package "Regalos" (gifts) it also should get through better I´m running low on contact solution but I have been looking for it here because I know it would be kinda hard to send off. If you are gonna send me a Christmas package I would suggest sending it off as soon as you can if you want me to get it on time becaus the office will be swamped around christmas becuase every elder is gonna get something and they can only receive a certain amount of packages at a time because of the dumb local laws here.
This saturday we one for sure for sure baptism and 1 other young girl that could get baptized. The fore sure bbaptism is a reference from the EQP, his wife´s cousin and they are all just way pumped with everything that we are doing for them. Her name is Liz she´s 17, loves to sing (we are gonna buy her a motab cd) and she is probably the maturest 17 year old that I have ever met. When we first met her we thought she was older than us haha. Anyways she got permission from her dad and everything so we are excited
The other is 20 year old Sandra who about 3 weeks ago just decided to come to church and then came the next week but she didn´t come yesterday so we have to find her and see what happened
Our apt flooded this week. Peru has a very bad habit of randomly shutting off the water and electricity all over the city. anyways they shut it off all day and apparently the pressure built up so much in our tubes that our poor broken sink just exploded. Unfortunately we were out proselyting so we came home to a river flowing out of our room. So that took about 2 or 3 hours to clean up but we have decided it was a blessing in disguise because our room is now very clean haha.
We also got called devils this week by a 7th day adventist. well kinda. he called the BOM diabolical so pretty close.
I´m gonna attempt to send pics. My camera has decided to stop working so I´m borrowing elder lowe´s
Love ya
