This is my first email as a 21-year-old! As with every
holiday on your mission, there wasn't much ado. The highlight was going to the
DMV for an hour and a half to get a NC driver's license since my Ohio one
expired.
The exchanges gauntlet is starting. From this past week
until I'm done I have a companion exchange every week. This past week I had one
of the freshest of missionaries with me. He's one of the 18-year-olds and he
still has that new missionary smell. His area has been struggling for a while
and they're only teaching one person right now, so he got thrown in the deep
end with our three lessons that we had scheduled.
We had a stake priesthood meeting this week to discuss the
'Hastening The Work' broadcast. There's a young man named Hunter from the
Southport Branch who's going to the Peru Chiclayo Mission, where James is.
Talk to y'all next week!
Love,
Elder Perryman
