There were changes this week but I
am soo happy that I didn’t get changed and I can stay in this area for more
time. I love La Ceiba and the people and area I am serving. Our ward is
arguably one of the best wards in all of Honduras! Just saying
So I have at least 6 more weeks here
with my companion and actually things have been getting much better with this
chump. haha I told Meg that if there is one thing I am learning here it is
patience. So that’s good news for all of you guys reading this.. I don’t think
I will ever get annoyed with any of you ever again. haha But we have been
working extremely hard and it took a little while to see the success here but
the Lord has rewarded us tremendously. We found the ¨Golden Family¨. This is
the type of family that we are looking for. A young couple with 3 kids. The mom
is a member but hasn’t been to church in 8 years. It is a true blessing that we
found this family. The colonia (lil area) that they live is ¨controlled¨ by the
Catholic church there and they said it is a rule that whoever lives there
cannot attend any other church. I really have no clue how the crap we found
them but when we did she opened the door and said ¨I have been waiting for you.
I want to return to the church and raise my family in the gospel. We had
probably the best visit I’ve had here with them last week. I felt the Spirit
strong.. Something that I have ever felt before. I finished bearing my simple
testimony of the power of families and happiness that this gospel can bring to
their family. God knows and loves every single one of you! I felt a warm burning
sensation I have never felt before and I know they felt something as
well.
Because after they said that they both want to get married in the temple and be sealed with their families. After we ended and left the house, Ii was jumping up and down like a little school boy! haha

This is the type of people we are
looking for. They make everything worth it! oh ya, and they said ¨the bird to
the Catholics here¨ haha okay, not exactly but that’s the vibe I got from them!
haha
This last week has been crazyyy!!!
The last 3 days, a storm hit here and has been the worst rain in over 5 years.
It literally hasn’t stopped in 3 days straight. The whole city is flooded and
literally we walk through 1 to 2 feet of rain up to our knees.
I have recommitted myself to the
Lord and His work!!!
Me and my new comp Elder Rotche
