Hey Everyone,
Well, I'm leaving Alamos. I'm
headed to Satèlite, in Potosí.
It's like 14,000 feet above sea level. I'm sad to be leaving Alamos
but I'm excited for something new too. Elder Olson from my group was
there before and told me he liked the area. He said the bishop and ward
are really good, the young men's program is just a mess because they haven't
had a president in a year.
It's going to be weird leaving my
area and Cochabamba though. I've been here a long time. I know my
area well and I know the whole city of Cochabamba pretty well. I'm glad
I'm leaving at the end of the rainy season though. I will probably be
back for the next rainy season
Also it looks like I will finish my
mission on March 11, 2015. That's about 95% sure.
This week was good. last p-day
we played soccer and then went to a restaurant where I ate chicken sil pancho
then we went to visit the Floreses.
Today I'm going to the Floreses too. I'm going to leave a box of stuff with them because I can't fly with as much weight as I have.
We had another good lesson with
Miguel and Carmen. The husband will arrive in Bolivia on April 1st and
they'll be baptized on the 5th.

On Monday we talked with Santiago
and his mom and his 7 year old brother Rafael. He turns 8 on the 13th of March
and the whole family has baptismal dates for that day.
I can't remember if I've told you
about Elvis, he's one of Gerardo's friends. We had a good lesson with him
on Tuesday. he believes that everything we've taught is true and if his
parents give him permission he'll be baptized on April 5th. His parents
are very Catholic but his mom loves us and can see that we are helping him. I
think we'll get permission and hopefully the parents get baptized too.
The mom is listening to us now.
I'll be in Potosi tomorrow. I'm
excited to see how it is. I'm sure I'll have lots to write next week.
I hope you all have a great week. Don't forget to be going to the
temple.
Love,
Elder Howlett
