First Week in Retalhuleu

Well here I am in Retalhuleu Mission. How crazy it is here!!!! First
off- I don't think I will be completely dry for the next 16 months.
Haha. it is so humid here that even the paper i have feels damp.
Plus if it isn't raining then I'm sweating. :) Second- It is a good
thing I have short sisters because I am taller than everyone but most
of the North American Elders!! It is so weird and nearly everyone
comments about it.

So I have completed almost a week here. And just like my first week
in the CCM and MTC it feels like a life time!! It is so weird.
Anyways. I liev on the property of the Bishop in a little house with
one room for beds and one for the kitchen area and a bathroom the size
of the Little Bathroom from home. Maybe a tiny bit bigger. The
people here are all very friendly!! I am able to understand basically
everything!!! The hard part is talking. This is the first time in my
life that I want to say something and can't. I am looking forward to
the day that I will be able to express myself. My companion is Hna.
Ruiz. She has been out for 5 months. She is super patient and really
cute. She works hard and really knows how to help the people. I have
met a bunch of the members and they all love her. I have also met our
investigators. Hno. Enrique, Hno. Juan and Hno. Erick are our main
priorities right now. Oh and a teenager named Hno. Hamington. I am
really loving it here. :) The language is hard but I feel very
comfortable here.

Oh tell me about Conference!!! I was able to watch 3 of the 4
sessions but it was all in Spanish because I'm, the only North
American Sister in my zone. I only got the gist of each talk.

Love you all

Hna. Pelaez
