Chapter 49: 365 Days Left

Me and Hermano Mauricio, my favorite taxi driver in Tegucigalpa



Photos of the gorgeous views from my area. We're on top of a mountain, which makes for some cool pics, but a lot of uphill walking.





 I'm not baggy (trunky) I promise

We've had a good week! We've been doing lots of visits with the bishop or other ward leaders and it's really cool how the members here are really motivated and willing to help us out in the work! This week we're preparing a joven named Roberto for baptism. He's 16 years old and a crazy kid. He loves the Gospel! The other day when we stopped by to visit him, Roberto was there with a less active young man, helping him do the homework from seminary because the less active had missed a lot of classes! I never thought I'd see an investigator of mine tutor a member on the Doctrine and Covenants. It was awesome!

In 365 days, I'll be done with my mission! It's crazy how quickly time is flying. I really am enjoying the mission, and while I miss my family and home, I'm so glad I still have a lot of time left to enjoy the mission.

Sorry that this is a shorter email, mom, but other people would like to use the computer.

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...
