Make America Great Again

Hola hola everybody, what is up!? Another week in the books, it went fast and we were working really hard this week! This email will be short and sweet because nothing too crazy has really happened, just straight workin!!


Leading:
This transfer I get to "lead" the area. My companion still carries me most the time, but I get to start conversations with people and start most lessons. I feel like my Spanish is pretty solid for 1 transfer in the field, but it seems every time I have to start a conversation or lesson, all my Spanish just disappears. I usually can get through it but definitely can improve! This week was a tough week, and it definitely pushed me to be a better missionary. A great week of growth as I've started to build up a little bit more confidence and knowledge of how to teach. 



Other stuff that happened this week:
- I had an intercambio, which is just when you switch companions for a day, I was with Elder Jiminez and it was chill vibes, always good to learn different ways of teaching
- I saw a Donald Trump face mask thing at some parade and it was dope, God bless the USA 
- Elder Morton and I's comps let us go get Baleadas together and it was fire. 🔥 (Baleadas are a popular street food made with a thick flour tortilla that is folded in half and filled with refried beans, cheese, and crema (a thick, buttery cream), and you can add other toppings like eggs, chicken, avacado, etc.  Back home, I probably wouldn't have liked them that much, but here in Honduras... they are so good!)
- I eat a lot of mini bananas, they're fun 🍌 







Yeah that's really it, loving the mish👍

Spiritual thought:
"The Apostle Paul taught that the Lord’s teachings and commandments were given that we may all attain “the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.” That process requires far more than acquiring knowledge. It is not even enough to be convinced of the gospel; we must act so that we are converted by it. In contrast to other preaching, which teaches us to know something, the gospel of Jesus Christ challenges us to become something"

That's one of my favorite quotes from President Oaks, enjoy🤙


Until next time, 
Elder Bingham

  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...

  What is up everybody, hope you guys are all doing well. It was a good week of work and also some fun times as well. 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.

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 ...
