Haha... I couldn`t resist putting that subject line...

First off, sorry for last week and not writing, if you can believe it I totally forgot to write my weekly email.. 

Well... to my surprise.. I got transferred! These last 6 weeks (well now 4 weeks) I will be spending here in the Santa Fe ward.. I`m still in San Juan de Lurigancho, which made me happy, and the happiest part of this transfer is.. my companion.... In transfer day President called my name, and then to the shock of everyone called the name of Hermana....CALLEJAS!! I will now be finishing the mission as the companion of my daughter again!!! We were so happy we cried right there in transfers... it`s not every day you can finish the mission along side the sister you trained. 

So we are happy here in Santa Fe and working hard to reach our goals.. These last two weeks we have struggled a little bit trying to find new investigators, but we are working hard to try and find those people who are prepared to hear the restored gospel.

This last Saturday I was able to head back to Bayovar for Facundo`s baptism which was really cool! I was able to see many of the members and they were all happy to see me, which was a wonderful feeling. Hna Osorno is training a new sister there and they seem to be doing well.. David should be getting baptized this next Saturday or Sunday, but unfortunately I won`t be able to go.. :( I am happy to hear though about the progress of those I was teaching and how they are doing.

Here in Santa Fe we have a few investigators that are progressing towards baptism.. First Nayta.. she is the little sister of a return missionary and has just moved here from the jungle.. She is 13 and really smart.. she is following through with all of her commitments and her testimony is growing fast.. we are planning her baptism for the end of the month 29th of November.

This week we met a 16 year old boy named Irvin.. and let me tell you I got my socks knocked off.. I never thought a kid so young could be so spiritual. We taught him about the Book of Mormon and assigned him 1 chapter to read.. he came the next day having read the first 3 chapters of Nephi as well as all of the testmonies.. we are hoping to help him be baptized on the 6th of December..

Well looks like I am outta time again.. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8... time for everything.. Love you all so much! Take care this week!!
