Hello family,
How is life going? Well, I am in a
new area closer to the Tegucigalpa mission home. Here is what happened this week.
Monday we didn't do much but we had time to say good-bye to a family who feed
us one last time and then on Tuesday we said goodbye to the members in Marcala. It was sad but cool to get pictures of most
of the members.
Wednesday I arrived in my new area
called Tizatillo which is just outside of Tegucigalpa. The first day we already
found someone contacting and he is very crazy but I had fun teaching him. He
knows the lessons, he just doesn't want to be baptized. We will see what we can
do. Also one of the zone leaders in my last area came with me the same time
here. Crazy! Thursday was hard because
we went contacting and one of the guys we were teaching, a boyfriend of a
member, wasn't even paying attention to us. I know we did our part so we will continue to
try to help him. Friday also was tough
contacting and these people are not as excited like the last area but I feel
that the ones who listen to us really want to know more about the church.
Saturday we found a family and one
told us she had a dream of us coming because the night before she prayed hard
that her prayers could be answered. We
came in blue shirts to give service and she told us she saw two white guys in
blue shirts. Tells you the importance of the right shirt I guess. We found two
families that day which is very high for a normal day because most men here
come home late at night.
Sunday was new. We had to get up early because the church isn't
in our area. There is a member who
drives everyone in a bus so it's not as hard to get people to go to church just
the time slot. Church starts at 8 AM, but some do not get there till 8:30. Now I know why everyone shows up late. :)
That's what happened this week. Love you all, see you later.
