My week this week was super long, Not a ton of success this week, but we still worked super hard. On saturday we went to pitumarca and tried to teach one potential girl who could be baptized but she wasnt home that day. But hopefully on wednesday we can. We got back super late and i got super sick on sunday with the double dragon. It is when you have diarrhea and vomit at the same time haha. I got no sleep and we had to stay home from church. But later throughout the day i got better. Then we had the elders from espinar, who is elder pickett from our group too. SO they stayed with us and we did a short divisions for a bit and then ate dinner and went to bed. Then today we went to the park and played a bunch of games with the zone. But the sisters didnt come. WE got 4 sisters in our zone now!! there was a bad accident with elders and sisters in sicuani before, so they took them out for a year and now we got them back! So everyones pumped to see how it works out but also very cautious. I got fried on my arms and legs today like the sun here is deadly!!

Elder Clawson and Elder Chamberlain walking the roads of Pitumarca, Peru. Daddy thank you so much for your email, especially the part about Hawaii, Im green with jealous rage right now. So my comp was in Puno before. Hes from Sandy and you know how they are... jokeing! he is super fun. I love him tons and he makes the work super fun. But to the district leader, thats just me, and i have 3 other companionships in my district. I havent really been told what i need to do yet but our zone leaders are gonna give me a run down of what to do tomorrow in the meeting. Ill tell you a funny story from this week. So I was In Pitumarca on saturday, and whenever i went to the bathroom it was like straight up liquid. so i was being really careful the whole day. WE got back from PItumarca super late like 830 at night. Then went to bed, but all night my stomach was on fire and i kept running to the bathroom. But around 1ish in the morning i was like man i need to use the bathroom, but i had nothing to crap, but then it came from my mouth this time. So i had the runs, and was throwing up. They have a name for it here, its called the double dragon, pretty scary. Its as bad as it sounds haha. So all morining in sunday i just slept cause i had no sleep. But later i felt better and the zone lieaders brought me some stuff to help haha. Today we played volley ball basketball and football and my arms annd legs got absolutely fried!!! it sucked! but Ill try to find some aloe vera or somehting to help haha.Thank you for the email dad and i will try to teach and be more of a christlike example to others in everything that i do. Thank you for your example of a great dad and being strong in the church cause honeslty here, there are not a ton of strong families in the gospel and its hard to see. I just want to flipping grab ahold of there dads and say HEY, follow the commandments and you seriously will receive blessings and be happy with your family! And i know that cause of yours and moms examples. Thank you and i Love you.Elder Clawson
