Thanksgiving/Election

 Hola everybody welcome back again, it's that time of the week!


Intercambios: 
This week once again I did a couple of Intercambios, a couple with Elder Jimenez and then one with Elder Troulzen, my zone leader. Being with Elder Troulzen was super fun because he is another white guy, so I was able to learn a lot and actually speak and ask questions and then be able to understand the response!



Thanksgiving:
Thanksgiving was actually an awesome day out here! Honduras doesn't celebrate it, but our pensionista cooked us some really good food that day, then that night some rich family who we have never met before invited us over to have a Thanksgiving dinner. (They lived in America for a while and are in the ward of some other missionaries.)

They were playing some fun music and everyone was dancing, the food was good, and I had like a 30 minute conversation with some dude all in Spanish! Obviously, I didn't understand every little thing, but enough to keep a conversation going. It's always cool to see progress!

Election:
This weekend was election weekend for Honduras, and because it's really dangerous we have to stay low for a couple days. But as a new missionary whose opinion doesn't really matter and can't speak the language, my comp and the other Latino in my house decided we should come to the city during the election to hang out with the other elders, and nothing I could really do about it! But we made it here safe and will stay low over here!

Spiritual thought: 
Moroni 7
19 Wherefore, I beseech of you, brethren, that ye should search diligently in the light of Christ that ye may know good from evil; and if ye will lay hold upon every good thing, and condemn it not, ye certainly will be a child of Christ.

  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.

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 ...
