Week 92: a week of miracles

Baptism of Rosa Linda Nuñes Nuñes (11), and Leyvi Magdiel Medrano Caseres (10).
Their parents were inactive, we reactivated them and baptized their daughters (they are not sisters)
So this week was full of miracles. 

Honestly, looking back at it there is no way man could do all that Elder Arzac and I have done in so short a time.
SO we had two baptisms on Friday. Sometimes all the planning and preparations fall on the missionaries which is fine, it just puts a little more stress on the table. So we did that, and then we managed while prepping for the baptism to get Margarita, Margarita and Angelo to attend the baptism. While there we wanted to take the time to sit down with them and teach them a little bit about the gospel of Jesus Christ. At the end of the lesson we challenged them to be baptized and they accepted! They are going to be preparing to be baptized on the 19 of October. It is a cool experience to be a part of because Angelo is really a rock for his mom. The three of them are very excited, they love the church honestly. 

At church on Sunday a sister brought her less active friend who’s daughter hasn’t been baptized and wants her to get baptized! It’s crazy that we just had two baptisms and that the Lord has doubled the number of fechas we had before the end of the week!

Elder Arzac and I got looking at all the people we have found in the last 2 weeks and it is an incredible amount of people. We could have 9 baptisms by the end of October 7 if there are not any complications. Crazy right!? I can’t believe the help that the Lord gives us missionaries when we work hard. The effort seems too small for what He gives in return. 

I love my God and my Savior for all the love that they have shown me and the people here in Honduras. I love my family and hope to be able to enjoy General Conference this weekend. I hope all of you can too. I hope we all seek for the revelations that the Lord has prepared for each of us that we can receive from the mouths of his prophet and apostles in these latter days. 

Love you guys, hope you all have a fantastic week!

Elder Arzac and I are on our way to the familia Banegas
The trail on the right goes to Yaguacire. It is a great view! Our area is Tizatillo, but we hardly ever work there. We live and work in a colonia called the Reynel Funez. It was a hot day with not a lot of success. 
This is Cesar. He is a little special, but he is so fun to be with. His mom is Hermana Waleska and she gives us dinner on Thursdays.
We made spaghetti (YUM!) at our house on one of the days that we didn't have a lunch anywhere. 
While getting ready one morning we played "the floor is lava" before leaving the house.
 WE BOTH MADE IT OUT ALIVE! lol!  We still like those kind of games
