Great beer ads in Spanish

Hey guys! This week has been a good one!

Fair in Santa Ana:
Last week for P-day we went to the fair in Santa Ana (near Ojojona) and played Carnival games and almost bought expensive souvenirs (I got some cheaper ones in Ojojona). Also ate pizza and played card games in the Bachelor pad the Elders have in Ojojona. It was fun.

Interviews with Pres. Mejia:
Had interviews with our President which was fun. We received a lot of instruction on how we can improve as a zone. Hopefully we'll be able to lift up the missionaries here in this zone and start seeing some results.

Insane baptismal interviews:
I did 3 baptismal interviews back to back to back on Saturday for a family that has been investigating the church for 8 years. They finally got baptized! But in the interview, their son kept giving me heart attacks when he said things like "what? my parents haven't gotten married..." and "the last time I drank coffee was on Monday" which Monday, you ask? "Monday... 2018"
Good times.

Lilian did not get baptized, but she is COMMITTED to not drink ANY coffee forEVER. She's very passionate about it. So stay tuned! We're hoping to have her baptism on Saturday!

Anyway love you guys, make good choices!
Have a good week!

(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...
