Chapter 22: Ilumina el Mundo (also I met a Seventy)



ITS DECEMBER PEOPLE MERRY CHRISTMAS!
We had an awesome (and busy) week this week! (with lots and lots of travelling)

Here's a rundown:
Normal days monday-thursday

Friday: We woke up at 2am to take a bus all the way to Tegucigalpa for a special multizone conference with Elder Zeballos from the Area Presidency! That was awesome, he spoke on the importance of repentance in our lives and the lives of our investigators! It was really good! But we got back to our area past 8:00pm sooo we didn't really do too much work that day.

Saturday: Light the World officially started with the International Day of Service! We travelled to Comayagua to do a combined service project with our zone (Zona Siguatepeque) and Zona Comayagua. It was awesome! But no one has sent me any of the photos they took so... Stay tuned. They also gave us awesome t-shirts
Sunday: Sundays are always hectic when you and your companion are the branch presidency.
I mean, really we just had a really busy weekend, but it was so much fun and full of spiritual experiences and service opportunities!

This week should be a typical week, and we'll find out next Monday if I have transfers or not! Woohoo! Stay tuned!
Love you all! Participate in Light the World! Read your scriptures! Repent! Practice your Spanish even after your mission!

A pie that the Bishop's family from my last ward baked for me when they learned I was getting transfered! Me blinking in front of the Comayagua sign (ft. Elder Murray) Pics with my boy at the temple! (ft. my new suit) Food storage!   Hey guys! Kinda crazy how much the world has changed in these last 7 days. Here's what's new with me: Transfers: I'M FINALLY TRAINING A NEW MISSIONARY!!!! Woohoo! His name is Elder Nabaum, he's from Heber City, Utah. He's a great guy! I'm opening an area in a city called Juticalpa! It's really hot and humid here, but I'm loving it! We're assigned to a small branch called Belen (hence the subject line) and so far so good! We've still only met a few of the members (because thanks to Coronavirus, we didn't have sacrament meeting yesterday) but we're out here doing our best! I'm really happy and we totally called it this transfer! We've been predicting this transfer for a couple weeks now! What is wei...

District Pedicures My Companion and I experiencing a pedicure for the first time Elder Murray dulling our only good knife Celebrating my 20 months on the mission with Cinnabon William's baptism!   Hey guys! This week it was overcast and slightly raining for 3 days which made the weather not that hot for those days, so that was a blessing William's Baptism: Saturday was leap day we celebrated with a baptism!! Our boy William was baptized on Saturday, and even though he doesn't smile in any pictures, we promise he was really happy that day! He's such a wholesome kid and he's really smart too! This week we're going to teach him about the priesthood to prep him to receive the Aaronic Priesthood this week or next! District Pedicures: Our good friend Hermana Cox is ending her mission this week and may have convinced our whole district to get pedicures together... So I got my first pedicure this week. It was an interesting experience, but I don't think it was reall...
