Injured Buttock

 What is good people?  Hitting up the temple today so we moved P-day to today, therefore I am sending my email today!


with the mission President next door for Honduras Tegucigalpa





This week and a half has actually gone by pretty fast, lots of teaching and we have been really focusing on our friends with upcoming baptisms! We have 2 lined up this Sunday, so everyone pray that they actually go through, could be the first baptisms of the mish!

Zone conference: 
Last week we had my first multi-zone conference with a bunch of different zones.  We all went up to Tegucigalpa and it was awesome to see some of the OG homies from CCM, especially the 🐐 Petersen!  President Donaldson really focused on people getting to church and the importance of sacrament, so really good message that applies to us all!

Intercambio:
Hit my first intercambio too, which is just companion exchanges. The very next day I went right back to the city and worked with Elder Ruiz, he is one of the Zone Leaders and he was dope, fun to work in the city, wayyy different vibes then Talanga. Lots more hills and lots more people, crazy people!




Random things:
Other than that it was a normal busy week, lots of rain but it was refreshing. Elder Morton and I's comps let us go out together and get some other food than this Chinese place we normally go to, and it was absolutely amazing. Some of the best ribs I've had and they had college football playing. Being locked on the mish I haven't even thought of college football really, but man was it nice to watch some Saturday college football, stayed in that restaurant for a minute!




Injured Buttock:
I know you guys been curious about my title but don't worry I didn't forget. This week we were playing some soccer with some kids in the ward one night, it started pouring rain, so we had to stop. My comp and I just went to a lesson since we couldn't play anymore. 

As we walking, I'm trying to put my sunglasses in my bag because you know, pouring rain and I don't need them anymore, and I'm looking down in my bag to put them inside because I couldn't open it from behind. Anyway my comp starts yelling at me and I look up and this motorcycle is flyingggg towards us. I mean this guy had at least 10 ft of space to drive down the road, and bro is just flyin right at us. I jumped out of the way as fast as I could, but something absolutely nailed my left cheek. I mean this guy either like held out his fist and nailed me or I hit his mirror/handlebar, no idea, but wow was it painful. Only in pain for a couple days, but missionary work doesn't rest for an injured cheek, the work must go on!

Shoutout to my Heavenly Father for blessing me with quick reflexes or else I would've gotten hit straight on from this dude zooming for absolutely no reason at all!

Spiritual thought:
Mosiah 4:
9 Believe in God; believe that he is, and that he created all things, both in heaven and in earth; believe that he has all wisdom, and all power, both in heaven and in earth; believe that man doth not comprehend all the things which the Lord can comprehend

The Lord knows all things, wayyy more than we do. Therefore believe in Him, trust Him, and obey Him!

  Hola everybody- another week has passed by already. I guess I get to write another email, but wow the week flew by!  First Christmas away from home but it was a good time. Let's get into the week.  Multi Zone Conference: Monday and Tuesday we had a conference with like 4 other zones and it was super fun, got to see some friends that I had been with in the CCM and got to catch up with them! Had some Little Ceasars pizza and a talent show it was cool. Next day we had the spiritual part and it was super good, learned a little bit about Angels and we talked about the brother of Jared, giving the stones to the Lord to make light out of them, and how we can give the Lord our stones, and let him light them for us! All dudes from my CCM group pizza with my goat Elder Castellanos spent some time catching up with Elder Chambers!! Elder Chambers... one of my faves Christmas gift from the mission President Christmas Eve and Christmas🎄 🎅: First Christmas out here on my mission and...

Definitely some things from my mission that I'll remember the rest of my life!  Happy bday Elder Garcia Also my mission is deleting messenger, so if you ever want to write to me or something like that, check out the email at the bottom of the email🫶 Copa Misional: Because the World Cup is on right now, my mission decided to do a Mission Cup, where we do zone v zone in a couple sports. Was able to play some bball and destroy some zone, and it's a fun time being with a bunch of my CCM bros and just playing sports. Comayagua 🔛🔝 Don't have all the photos yet Wednesday: Well Wednesday was a very interesting day. Headed out early on a bus to head to the city for a multi zone conference, but there was a hugeeee car accident in one of the cities on the way. Was stuck on a bus for 9 hours and got to the city at about 2:30am, quite the experience. Saw some things ...

Hello friends and family- welcome to another email.  Things are going good out here in Honduras, just living the missionary life. The temple: This past week I was able to go to the temple with our recent convert Jesua. It's super fun to be able to go to the temple with him and watch him progress in the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. I love the temple! The work: Well the work out here in my area is pretty tough, I'm not going to lie.  People are pretty hard hearted and aren't really open to anything, but nonetheless, we persevere with faith and keep working. view of the temple We've got a couple people with a baptismal date, but they either aren't married or they think they need to go to church a million times before they can really be baptized, so just working with them to progress and be baptized in the true and restored church! Spiritual thought: "Satan knows us by name but calls us by our sins, and God knows us for our sins but calls us by name" This ...
