Family and Friends,

Did you know that it´s the rainy season here in Ayacucho? Well now you do. Almost everyday the sun is super strong at noon and then in the late afternoon it starts to rain hard and usually we get caught in it. I love it. Life´s all good here in Perú, we´re getting excited for General Conference this week :):)

>Sorry for the shortness but I wrote you all last Wednesday so that´s why haha.

Until next week, have a great week!

Love Always,

HERMANA HARBISON

Family and Friends,

Here I am, still in Ayacucho with my same companions :):) We were relieved and so happy to hear that we would still be together for my last missionary transfer...

One day we dressed in super bright colors just to walk to have lunch and everyone greeted us. Which is a total rarity here in Ayacucho as we always greet everyone we meet and no one ever responds to us.

I´m ready for this last transfer, giving it all my all and not thinking that the end is so close... I hope you all have a great week!

Love Always,

HERMANA HARBISON

Familia y Amigos,

Good week this week as Hna Saenz and I took a trip to Lima, the big city! I had to do some immigration paperwork so Hna Saenz was my company as Hna Mendoza stayed and worked here with other Hermanas in Ayacucho. She was happy because the last time she took the 10 hour bus ride to get here she got super carsick and that wasn´t fun. So on Wednesday night we were off on the bus and on Thursday night we were back on coming back to Ayacucho. It was a long time but we had a good time in Lima as we got to go to the Temple which was great and beautiful! However, after a long, terrible sleep on the bus night, we were excited to be reunited with Hna Mendoza on Friday morning.

We´re working hard and not looking forward to the call this Saturday about the transfers for next week...

Love Always,

HERMANA HARBISON

Familia y Amigos,

On monday we went to a place called Quinua.

It was so pretty and reminded me of Colorado up in the mountains. Well while we were there I ate guinea pig.


After a year here in Perú I´ve finally eaten the classic dish from the sierra of guinea pig or as it´s called here cuy. It was nice and fried and it was pretty tasty not going to lie. I love Perú.

Love Always,

HERMANA HARBISON

Family and Friends,

Good week this week. We´re doing work and seeing results and I love it. We also had the chance to have a zone conference as President and Hermana Douglas came down from Lima. It was great to see them and be edified, seeing what I can do to be a better missionary. Here´s a pic that I took last Monday as we were walking around town:



Here in Ayacucho they put their children on their back, or what ever they want to carry, then they take a large piece of cloth and tie it tight around their shoulder´s so that it holds their child in place and then they do what they have to do with their hands free. This is the best pic I could get without her really knowing that I was taking it but I hope that makes sense and you get an idea of the culture here in Ayacucho.

Scripture of the week: D&C 97:8, measure your life on the Lord´s standards.

Have a great week!

Love Always,

HERMANA HARBISON
