Changes are this week! I might have a new companion. The work is going great! I love this area! We found a new family to teach!!! The wife wants nothing to do with us but the husband is awesome! After the three hours of church, he asked us if there was more! He wants his family to participate so bad and asked us to do everything we can to get them involved so we planned a FHE this Tuesday and we hope that will do the trick. He was so prepared to receive the gospel! Our colonia is divided in zones, and this family is in zone 5. The members tell us not to waste our time there because the area is difficult, but we were determined to find someone and we found gold! He´s been reading the Book of Mormon a bunch since the first visit.
I love the mission so much! It´s great to be a missionary. We have about 4 other investigators right now. They have all the lessons and believe everything, it´s just setting a date that´s difficult with them. One of them, an older lady, told us she has made her own date for baptism in her head and will be baptized that day and no other. But she won´t tell us what it is. This one lady in the ward invited us over for cake for her daughter´s birthday the other day. She´s convinced that I look just like some guy from her novela. Everyone is obsessed with novelas here. She showed me to all her friends that were there too, and they made me take pictures with them and their kids. I ate something pretty cool this week too! I forgot what it´s called, but basically it was a giant lizard, about the size of a cat. It tasted alright, but we had to drink the lizard juice at the bottom of the bowl too. Apparently Honduran legend says it can revitalize the dead or something like that. Love you guys!
