So before you start reading this I need you all to go and listen to this talk by Mitt Romney…J
And then mom you gotta watch this one. :D https://www.youtube.com/embed/JsoR7LRFV2I
Talks are awesome. Anyways! Changes are going on so the office is crazy. I´ll be short. We didn´t have changes in the office so we´re happy! Anddd shout out to SVU because we are playing Utah State first game! Soo pumped.! So pumped.
Anyways this week was so great and don’t remember much but Hermana Evelyn accepted a date for the 26th! They are passing through a hard time right now because the gangs killed 2 uncles of theirs… But they have been sharing the Book of Mormon with their whole family that lives far away! They are sooo awesome! Ememlina hasn´t accepted a date for baptism just because she is nervous to see what her grandparents who are really catholic say. She´ll be baptized soon. They are great. But speaking of the Book of Mormon I finished it this week for the 3rd time on the miss. As I finished the book Alma 32 came to me and I honestly think my testimony of the Book of Mormon is knowledge now. I know it´s from God and I know it gives me power, peace, and protection. That is fact for me now. I love that. Now I still need to work on my faith at being more diligent reading the scrips, but the fact that the Book of Mormon is true- is knowledge and nothing else.
Also invitation of the week is check out Ether 6:5-7 and see what you can get out of it… I got so much out of it!
And then for P-Day we went to a different museum and the other Elders had a baptism and it was so fun because after we went with the assistants to the Taxi Santo´s house and we ate ´sopa de Garrobo’! Iguana soup! It was sooo good. And supposedely really good for you.
And then Sunday was just the greatest thing ever. Look at the photos to see the story.. But then we totally taught a Jew that lives in Honduras about FamilySearch and it was one of the coolest lessons I have ever had on my mission. One day this week he came up to us in the street and asked us about FamilySearch and said he wanted to be able to look more up about his family in depth and so we put an apt. for Saturday and he brought his two kids and they were the nicest and coolest people! And it is so cool because I have never met a Jew in Honduras and it is soooo rare to find someone interested in FamilySearch here! So we taught them and talked to them about their traditions and cultures and they speak Hebrew and in a weird round about way he believes in the Book of Mormon… haha but he said we can come over to teach them more because they are open to anything, We made some really good friends. Cool story. Thanks for the bday wishes! Pray for Jeancarlo and Jose David so they get baptized this week!
This week I am thankful for my family members and friends, FOR JACEY AND THAT SHE GOT MARRIED YAYYY!!, for this Gospel, for talks, for the Book of Mormon, for miracles, for answered prayers, for the ability to work and walk, for my journal, for the temple, for my family history and the sacrifices they made for their generations, for prayer, for SVU, for my new roommate Brandon Hill!!! Dynamic Duo!, for Pat and Mackay cuz their bdays are this week and next week, for my Savior, and for awesome food from Honduras!
