Welcome back everyone. Gonna be a quick one today because I don't have a ton of time due to zone pday and I need a nap.
Started the week off sick. Elder Cano got the flu pretty bad and I've had a gnarly cough all week. Tuesday we couldn't leave to go work because Cano had a 102⁰ fever but Wednesday we made it out.
Thursday we had multizone conference and it was so good and I learned a lot. Humility has been a concept on my mind recently and how I can learn how to have more of it. Something that came to my head during the message of our mission president was I need to be 100% responsible for my errors and 100% grateful for each success. As we have tried to put this in practice these past few days we have seen miracles.
Mario, Miriam, and Gadiel are still progressing so strongly toward baptism and it is just a pleasure to be a part of this process with such prepared people.
The Lord is real. This is His work and He works harder than we do. Our friend Sheyla told us yesterday that she wants to be baptized. I talked about her a few weeks back but for those who don't remember, we have had some of the most spiritual lessons of my mission with her but she has just been so trapped by the fear of her extremely Catholic parents. We lost contact with her for a bit because she left for the capital of Honduras at the beginning of Holy Week and wasn't responding to our texts. We were just praying and praying that something would happen and she would believe a little bit more. Well we saw her yesterday as she accompanied her aunt (a member) to her first Sunday in the Church. We watched the first session and then afterward I asked her if she had a favorite talk and she told me it was Elder Holland's from the day before. Turns out she watched every session. And loved it. She also had a very special, personal, and spiritual experience during the week before. Her parents gave her their acceptance of her desire to go to church, she decided she wants to be baptized, and she wants to serve a mission one day. My heart has never been so full and I have never felt so heard and seen by our Savior. He answers prayers. He loves all of his children. His gospel is for everyone. Go find out for yourself and watch general conference😁
My time in Honduras has been the best of my life.
Love you all so much!
