7 October 2013




Definitely the highlight of this week was that I got to watch conference! And I got to watch it in English! So nice to be able to understand easily and listen to the actual voices and the emotion. Besides, how are you ever going to translate a talk by Elder Holland? All of the North American missionaries gathered in the High Council room to watch on a small TV.
We're finally starting to have a few investigators. We managed to have three come to the Sunday Morning session. We had committed a bunch of people to go. So Sunday morning we set out to gather them. My comp was worried that they wouldn't all fit in the small bus the ward had. I wasn't. On the off chance that they all came, I was going to be soo happy that I would find a way to make them fit. Even though we went out to gather some people, the three who did come came on their own and early! I'm feeling really optimistic about these three. One of them, William, has had a Book of Mormon for a few days and is now on chapter 11. What's more, before the session started, he sat there reading more!
In other news, on Wednesday we went on divisions with the Sister Training leaders. I went to the other area and Sister Blanco and I had a Book of Mormon day. In each of our lessons we taught about or reviewed the importance of the Book of Mormon, including when we first contacted people. It's not the way to work every single day because there are other things we need to teach, but it made for a really good day!
As a dietary sidenote, I am eating a lot of rice these days. Rice seems to be a standard component of lunch in Honduras, and perhaps especially in La Ceiba.
Well family, I love you lots and lots. I hope you have a wonderful week!
