WHOO HOO!! THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT PICS


Hey fam how are you all doing?  I am doing just great now that I got to see all of the great pictures, It took me forever to see them all it was great thanks mom for all the pictures.  The family looks great and happy and so that is what is important.  You will never believe what Elder Webb showed me this week! My plane ticket home!  I came into the office and elder webb said hey elder stauffer, come over here and so I went over there and he showed me the voucher that the church sent to the office, man o man where is my mission going?  My time here in the office has flown by and and that is all the time that I have left.  But hey I just gotta keep working.  But I am really thinking about talking to President Tyler to let me go back out into the field and just WORK.   It is such hard work for us here in Perú and I feel like I still have alot to learn in these 4 months and I think that the best place for me to be is to be out in the hills knocking no doors and learning how to just WORK.  I will do whatever President wants me to do but I have loved the experience here in the office it has been awesome.  But one thing that I have learned is that I really love talking to everyone about the gospel rather than filling out reports making phone calls, training missionaries, taking care of their problems, doing the changes, etc.  But hey I´ll go and do right?
 
But here is the picture of us last week at the temple.  As you can see the sun is starting to come out alot more here in Lima and it is getting hot sometimes.  By the time you get here in march, it will be pretty humid.  I will never forget the feeling when I first took step off the plane here in Lima last year.  It was so hot in my suit.  It was crazy.  But glad mom that you liked that web site that I sent to you, hope that it all keeps going good.  A lot of missionaries use them when their parents come, so it will be great.  And yes I will try to get a picture with a llama for ya mom, I have seen those guys walking around with their llamas alot too but it is just that I cant really carry my camera around in the streets when I am proselyting if I want to keep my camera.  haha If you know what I mean?  As soon as I take out my camera it wont be mine anymore in my mission.. hahah haha but i will go to this one place I know of and take a few for you okay?  But thanks for the pic of tann, he looks like he is doing great.  Cant believe that Blake is almost done, how crazy is that, how is sonya feeling?
 
Thanks toads for the picture of the tow trucks, so we do have a rotator now?  And sweet that you learned a lot more.  Hope that you just enjoy this winter and work hard.  There is no better feeling of just being exhausted after a long days work, I LOVE IT.   I feel so accomplished when I get back to my room at night after talking with everyone and their dogs about the Gospel and just being beat.   It is the best feeling ever so that is why I think I wanna just go work for my last 4 months.  But keep up the great work. 
 
Thanks sister for all of your great trips that you get to go on and then get to rub it into your little bros face, haha jk.  Tell tj not to worry about it and congrats for his new job, that will be great.  Hope all is well with him tell him.  And get better, I still remember when I first got here, and how sick I was... It was crazy. 
 
Thanks pops for all of the great updates, you are doing a great job, just tell everyone to keep the trucks clean and to not smoke in them... I have been thinking about that a lot, are the kearns trucks clean or what?  And ya I will try and end strong my mission to bring more souls unto Christ.  Love ya pops
 
Well mom this week we had a talent show and Elder Diaz plays the guitar and loves to sing so we sung this funny mission song about the dear john letters that we get as missionaries and yes he made me sing but hey everyone laughed and so that was good, and we had alot of our investigators there in the chapel.  I will send a picture.  this week just gonna be doing the changes with Pres Tyler, and not a whole lot else.  Love ya lots.  Elder J Stauff
