Hey everyone!!! This week was awesome!! My companion and I are seeing the blessings that come from hard work. What we are really focusing on in our area right now is reactivation. We have been helping people remember the sacred convenants they made when they were baptized and inviting them to continue enduring to the end by going to church each sunday. Its hard but we are seeing great progress with everyone of the people we are visiting.
This past saturday our investigator Eduardo was baptized!! Eduardo is a little guy of about 10 years and he is a really smart kid!! He started coming to church about 2 months ago with a member family said he feels really good when he is at church. His baptismal service was great. Always the best feeling to help someone learn more about the Savior, see them grow spiritually, and enter the waters of baptism.
We also have another investigator named Evelin. Everyone in her family are members of the church and we started teaching her about a week ago. We challenged her to get baptized and she accepted to prepare herself for the 27th of June! And that includes either seperating from her boyfriend or getting married but we are excited to work with her and see her progress!!
One thing that i noticed this week that is kind of funny about the people in Honduras is their responses to the question "Cómo está?" Some of the responses we get are "Aquí mirandolos" which means "Here looking at you" or "Aqui mire" which means "Here look!" haha so that was something funny i noticed this week.
So grateful for this opportunity i have to serve a full time mission and dedicate all of my time to the Lord and his work. Love all of you and hope everyone has a great week!!
Love,
