Masen is working in his Field of Dreams and finding mucho success

Hi Family and Friends,
Another happy e-mail from Masen. He says the work is tough, but I can’t imagine anything more providential than making contact with someone who found the Book of Mormon on the side of the road and has already read it. Amazing! Thanks for your prayers and support!
we ate suri live.
ya suri is a right of passage in iquitos. we just did it for fun and it was the funniest grosest exprience of my life. i have it all on video. i will try to send it to you tomorrow.
as for the time here it has been normal. not to fast, not to slow. and i dont want a transfer. i love my area even though it is tough. i believe we are changing it. last week a family went to church. their friend invited them so they came. we talked to them and took their address. it sounded like it was far away, but all the members said it was close. becasue the members said it was close we went to visit them. the branch president has a mototaxi. its a motercycle choped in half and the front is attached to a bench with 2 wheels. i make it sound crazier than it is, but its wack. ha ha. so we went with him. we were driving for like 10 minutes when i saw the sign SANTA CLARA ---> ya tight its not that far away. then we drove for like another 15 20 minutes to get there. ah su. tan lejos. it is in the middle of no where. only thing out there is rice farms. as we were driving the road is pure white. and my comp (becuase he is columbian and always joking about his farm) said hey where is the coke. ha ha ha i laughed a little then noticed the road. i said they found a perfect way to hide it. look at the road. he laughed and when he got out he made the action like he was going to sniff it. hes a goof, but way funny. elder collins called him goofy when they were in the same district.
the mission work goes on. estamos luchando como siempre. this week we found one dude that has read the book of mormon. he said he found it on the side of the road. its amazing how the lord can prepare someone. when we talked to him he asked about that, but said something about how Jesus Christ existed before this life. i asked him what he would think if i said he exsited before too. his eyes lifted up. then we read in the bible where god says that before this life he knew us and we were pre ordained and everything. he was shocked and it was cool. we only talked to him once for 20 minutes then had to go. i am sure that he will progress and be a leader in the church.
got to go. love you all.
im trying to send pics but its not working.
Elder Fenn
