Prep Day & Almost 1 year in Pisco
Hola Mom and Dad,
You're not gonna believe what I am about to tell you, but I didn't get an exchange. In fact, I'm staying in the same area, and I am going to be training another new missionary again. If I don't get any cambio loco, then that means I'll be in Pisco until October. All of the other missionaries were laughing when they heard I was staying. We joke about how President Manning forgot that I even exist. La familia Hernandez esta felíz que no voy a salir. Tambien los miembros de la iglesia estaban soprendidos cuando escucharon que me quedaría aqui.
My companion Elder Tani will be staying in Pisco, but he will be a serving in Pisco Pueblo, and his new companion will be arriving today. I, on the other hand, am staying in Pisco Playa, and my new companion won't be arriving until Wednesday. Elder Juarez, my trainer still serves his mission. He called me the other night and told me that he will be training another missionary too. What does all of this mean? I will have two sons, and a brother on the mission. A family of missionaries.
It has been cloudy and cold lately. Daytime sometimes the sun beams down on us, but at night the cold sweeps in. I miss all of the food back home. Jaime made some burgers, but they're not as good as In n Out nor Rocky's. So my gramps thinks he can outlast injuries and illnesses by manning up and taking it. Good luck. I'm happy that he's in doctor's care now. As always, tell the family I said Hi and that I love them all. Enough to the point where I miss them. If you're going to send another package, send corn and flour tortillas, with the album REQUIEM by Gioseppi Verdi. I'm craving for tortillas. Love you both and take care!
Elder Emiliano Leon
