This is a picture of me and my compeneros! We have 13
people in my district. It is busy and that is such a good thing! I love
having a set schedule. I really feel like I accomplish a lot that
way. Yes we get to ball every day!! It's the best. Mis
compeneros and I got lucky with our room. We were supposed to have three
more guys move in this week, but something happened and so it's just us!
So we definitely need a hoop. I would love to email other family.
Letters are hard to write and I get a ton of time at least at the MTC to
email. I'm not sure when we leave! I thought it was April 6th but
she's probably right! Our investigator committed to baptism!!! It
was the most amazing experience of my life. I can't even describe
it. Even though it wasn't real, it sure felt like it. He came a
long way from our first lesson and we really came to love him and really wanted
not only his life to be better, but his life to come as well. The rest of
our district wasn't quite as successful. One companionship even got
kicked out yesterday! When I say successful, I don't really mean me or my
compeneros were successful. I have really come to learn that it is
absolutely not about us. It's the Spirit that truly teaches people that
carries the truth of the gospel to people's hearts. With the terrible
Spanish I speak, I couldn't convince a three year old in Honduras that the
church is true. When you feel the Holy Ghost come into the conversation,
that's when you know you are nothing but an instrument in the Lord's
hands. Thanks for the package today! Mis compeneros are pretty much
in love with you. Miss you!
Love,
Elder Cocinero
