Hola hola! This was a crazy week, full of blessings  It hasnt been too long since my last email on Christmas but we have seen a lot more milagros. On Thrusday we started the day off with some "fun", we had a lesson and parked in a maintanace parking spot because there was nothing else and yeah. Dont do that, when we came out 20 minutes later our car was about to be towed away. But he unloaded it and let us have it after I paid $250. Not fun but lessons have been learned. We have been knocking doors and just finding and Teaching like crazy and it has flown by. We had a fun noche de Fútbol this Friday and its just been a lot of fun lately. We have a lot of friends that are really close to Baptism which is awesome, we also went to a Baptism this saturday for some other missionaries.  Church was awesome this week, we had 9 friends come to church and most of them we had met during the week and they came and loved it. Then it got a lil slow and less eventful towards the night but i...

Hola hola Feliz Navidad everyone This was an interesting week, pretty successful but a lil longer since pday got moved to wednesday for Christmas. But it was a good week.  We had a Christmas devotional this last Saturday and it was good, really spirit filled. We had some friends come to church after like 3 months of trying so that was a miracle. Not too much that comes to mind of what else happened but Christmas was good. I read in 1 Nephi 11, Mosiah 3, Alma 7, and Helaman 14. They were super awesome, especially Alma 7.  Christmas Eve dinner was really good, we ate lots of really good food from Honduras. And sang some hymns in spanish and it was awesome. Then played Gatorball this morning after calling the fam and opening gifts. Then ate some really good lunch with a member and it was an awesome time. Christ is the reason for all hope which leads to stronger faith and that will lead you to have Charity. I'm going to be studying Charity this week and I invite all of yall to joi...

Buenas a todos It's been a tough week number wise and in the amount of work we have done. But pretty alright week other than that.  We had interviews during DC last tuesday and it was pretty good, President Botchway is awesome. Wednesday was an awesome day, we had lots of lessons and it was busy. Thursday was pretty similar but it was a lil less busy and did a lil exchange and went bike for the night. May have slid out on some leaves and messed up my jacket but yeah. Friday was kinda rough, no lessons and had a lot of driving since I sang at the Temple Visitors Center for a Christmas concert. It was good, took up our whole night though. Saturday was kinda similar but we had a temple tour with Keiver our recent convert.  It was fire but lots of driving once again and not as much work.  Sunday was good, none of our friends came to church but it was still a good day, did literally 0 missionary work due to another concert in the VC I sang at. It was pretty good, just super sl...

Hey buenas a todos! This week was pretty good, the sun was out til like saturday and now it is gone for a few months. :( But still a pretty good week. Pretty good pday last week and we had a Noche de Hogar (Family Home Evening). And DC the next day was good as well good times im general. We have been pretty busy with lessons each day this week and also actuvities like English Class, Book of Mormon night, etc. Had a District Leader Training on Friday which was really good, but also took up most of the day and then later our soccer night canceled sadly as well. Saturday was going to be super busy, but most of our stuff fell through/canceled. Sunday was pretty good as well, not too many people at church but still was good, watched the Christmas Devotional with a member and also ate there as well. It was awesome and a good devotional and then knocked a lot of doors. Its hard up here since it gets dark at like 5pm and then suddenly people dont want to answer the door when its dark even tho ...

Buenas a todos!  This week was kinda slower work wise and slightly less successful. But it was still good. We ate some really good popusas from this member that she made while we shared a message. It was awesome, on Wednesday we had a lot of lessons planned and none of them went through. We did get to give a lady a blessing 2 hours before she went into surgery.  Thanksgiving was pretty fire, played some turkey bowl football and then did some yardwork for an old member lady. It was pretty fun, then ate lunch with some members. And had a bit of lessons as well and moderated. Had a pretty good day friday, fútbol was awesome and I didnt hurt my feel or legs or anything that time so that's a win. Then hit an exchange with some other Elders and it was a slower chill day which was nice but also like not great. But yeah sunday was awesome, Keiver was confirmed by me and it was just a spiritual sunday. Fasting was good and also had a fire Peruvian dinner with a member named Abelardo an...
