Hola Hola!
Well,
I had to say goodbye to Zona Choluteca. I'm not going to lie, it was
pretty hard. There are a lot of people down there in the heat that I love sooo much. I didn't even say goodbye to many of them
because it was too sad. I think this was my hardest goodbye. Changes
are the WORST part of the whole mission. Pero ni modo...
I
am back in Tegucigalpa, in Zona Valle De Ángeles! That's the Valley of Angels, and it lives up to it's name. It is sooo great here!
The ward is super strong. The members are awesome and give us A TON OF
FOOD! It's super safe here too, from what I have heard. My new companion
is Elder Ruis. He's from Guatemala. He is awesome! We were already
friends a little bit from before, and now I think he is going to be one
of my favorite companions! He's been showing me the ropes, introducing me to the
investigators and the members a little bit. And from what I've seen it is
going to be a great place to finish my mission. Wow, I can't believe I just wrote that. Time is flying by!
This week
we had a super cool experience. Saturday morning we were invited
by one of our investigators to teach a bunch of kids in a service
project. We went with two other companionships to a
school that was having an open house sort of thing for kids to help
keep them off the streets. We taught them about Jonah and the Whale! Haha, it was so much fun! I think they are going to start inviting us to come
every week. I got a little taste of what you do every day, Mom!
As
for signing a letter of intent, Mom and Dad I am officially giving you permission to sign on
my behalf! I have thought and prayed about it and I feel like that's what
I need to do! Stefanie, I'm proud of
you for keeping the commandments and not dating until you are sixteen, that's what I'm talking about! Dad, good luck with your track team! Rachel and George, I love you guys! And Mom, thank you for
writing me every week! You haven't missed once and that means a lot! I
love you.
Well, that's all for this week! I'm
at a computer that can't send pictures, so I'll try to see if i can
switch to another one. But if not, I'll send some pictures next week.
Keep
the Lord in first place in your life this week! I can't think of a
single situation that would go better without His help.
