week 59 Eh?

SO this week I don`t really have anything new. We went contacting a lot this week like normal, but I felt like a missionary from Europe because NOBODY EVEN WALKED OUTSIDE TO TALK TO US. It was a rough week. But we did convince the Elder`s Quorum to do visits with us and we had a solid 12 less actives in church that we visited the week before. Which was cool.

My investigator Lisbet moved away a couple weeks ago on the week of her baptism, but she just moved back surprisingly so hopefully we still baptize her.

Yesterday I went to the baptism of an excommunicated member. They asked me to give the 5 missionary lessons as fast as possible for lack of time. And I did it in a pretty cool way not going to lie, but I didn`t even know that they had to listen to the mission lessons. It was funny because they told me at one o clock that I had to do it at 430 and also that I had to find baptismal clothing. so it was an adventure.

Today for pday we actually played baseball which was dope.

I didn`t take pics, or anything so sorry, but love you guys hope you have a great week. Will send extras next week.

This is Jake's mom.  I got some pictures from some ward members there so here are his pix this week.

week 58 Elder Coyote, Coyotilll Coyooyulllt??¿?¿¿?

First things first I`m the realest.

Second, my new companion is Elder Coyotl. Which is literally the hardest thing to pronounce in the world, I promise he changes the pronounciation of his name every time he says it. Sometimes the t comes first, sometimes the l, it`s REEEDONKULOUS.

Third, he is new, fresh out of the MTC, or be it, I am his father. And he is my son, especifically, my second son. He is a cool guy. Something that made me laugh the other day was me doing what is supposedly my exercise in the morning and then walking into the bedroom to find him doing kicks and jumping in circles in the air. Supposedly he did Tae Kwon Do before the mission, and when I saw him doing that in the morning, I broke down in tears. But we are actually pretty tight, and get along super well. He is SUPER chatty, and his accent is super strong. Side note, smack dat just came on in the Cyber and a 40 year old lady just started singing it. But he treats me in ``tu´´ which honestly makes me feel kind of weird, because here people talk in usted or vos, and tu is what you use when you flirt with a girl in Honduras. Anyway.

We found a couple of people this week, nothing too crazy. But an inactive member brought his wife and kids to church today, who aren`t members and it was his first time coming to church in supposedly 6 or 7 years. So we`ll see what happens with him and his family.

Anyway, I ran into a little girl named Michelle yesterday in Church. I first met her in Orocuina in the beginning of my mission. She isn`t a member, and she was super little when I met her. But she fell in love with me, and followed me in the streets in Orocuina and told everyone we were cousins, and I`d have to drag her back to her house, cause obviously I can`t have a little girl following me in the middle of nowhere. But ANYWAY. I RAN INTO IN CHURCH YESTERDAY AND SHE IS SO BIG AND IT WAS CRAZY. WE WENT NUTS, and she then proceeded to follow me everywhere again.

Also in changes I ran into my boy John Michael Roskos III or now known as ELDER ROSKOS from Basha High, right now he just started the mission in the most famous area in the mission. Yuscaran. It is supposedly the WORST area, but it has the NICEST house to compensate. We saw each other and flipped out and then the first thing he said to me was, ``It`s so crazy not seeing you in sweats and sandals.´´

Anyway, love you guys enjoy the pics.

Pics with my sons, Pics with my new son, pics with whatever I don`t remember. The first night he went to our porch to look at the city for like an hour. And I snuck up behind him and yelled and he jumped and then I took the selfie, it was funnier than the picture but eh.

week 57: week 1,000,000

Here we go again.

Elder Samayoa stayed with us on divisions for a few days. Elder Ordoñez just got changes today to go to the FLIPPING ISLAND of the mission. And I just got changes to train again, I`ll send off Ordoñez and receive the new missionary in the changes on Wednesday.

This week was all right to be honest. It was kind of nuts because they sister missionaries in my district had a baptismal interview I had to do, but he disappeared for a few days and showed up the day of the baptism at his cousins house and then they had to do the interview and baptise him on Sunday. Kind of a goose chase, but too lazy to explain it in all honesty. I really didn´t think he was ever going to show up, but I shouldn`t have been a doubter, he actually had good reason.

I`m the best monopoly player ever.

AND well... I don`t have a whole lot of pictures but oh whale.

also a couple pics of the inside of my cave.

week 56

THIS WEEK WAS GREAT.

We found a new family that came to church this week.

I ate good food.

And I found a member who washes my clothes.

So I guess this was one of my better weeks.

Today we went to Valle de Angeles for Pday. It´s a pretty touristy place north of Tegucigalpa, but it´s pretty and they sell kind of cool stuff, I didn´t buy anything though, cause I don´t want to truck all the stuff around my whole mission. We went to Chili´s for Elder Figueroa´s birthday, and also now I am here writing. So everything is super rad.

Also we did a funish service project, which included packing COFFEE cups for the Marriott hotel for like 2 hours one morning. It was cool because the members there were super funny and chill and they made us lunch.

Anyway, obviously I have no idea what to say this week, but I love you guys. :-)
