Catch-up on the past few weeks...

From 5 March:
Ed. note.

Luke is waiting for a visa to go to Peru. Since it has not been processed yet he will be going to a temporary re-assignment while he waits to go to Peru.

Hey so I just got my reassignment for official, and it said I can email you so I'm going to Las Vegas West for sure. Flight plans attached. Love you guys, idk when I can talk to you again probably won't have a p-day next week. Sorry.

Love,

Elder Padilla 

Hey guys it's been a pretty normal week but I broke my foot, so that's cool. I landed on it weird a few weeks ago and thought it was fine so I've been walking on it but then it didn't get better so i got an xray a couple of days ago and have a fracture at the base of my 5th metatarsal. So that's fun. Spanish is going well, don't have coronavirus yet but I'll keep you updated. Pics attached of boot and broken foot. I forgot to take them until I was already in bed so the quality is not the best, sorry.

Love,

Elder Padilla

MTC Address Update:

2005 N. 900 E. Unit #142

Provo, UT 84602

The MTC is super great everything is going so much faster it really is true that the days feel like weeks and the weeks feel like days, so trippy. We had our first lesson in Spanish this week and it's amazing what the gift of tongues can do. It's also amazing the power obedience has. Even just going to bed on time has the most major effect on the day. Anyway it's late but if you're reading this then thank you for supporting me and yo amo usted.

Also forgot to say but for the blog we got a new roommate his name is Doug, picture attached. We love him very much also here's a big snowman someone made pretty cool.

Hey it's been so great here, my companion and district are so great, I'm district leader and my roommates are zone leaders so that's cool I've never felt the spirit so strongly and for so long, it's a great experience and my teachers are great. Spanish is coming way better than it did in high school and I'm so stoked about it. Anyway love you.
