Week 67

Hola Queridos,

So answers to questions.

I am doing well and am excited to be working with my new companion, he´s awesome. Elder Ortiz is a nineteen-year-old Elder from Honduras. He is the second companion I have had who is from Honduras. He´s got five months in the mission and is a convert to the church. He was baptized when he was eleven. He´s family looks lovely, he´s the youngest of four kids, he has one sister and two older brothers, all except one of his brothers are members of the church. He´s awesome. He has a grand testimony which he shares with everyone and is striving to learn and improve. I don´t think I met someone who, when learns a new rule of the manual, applies it so quickly, and without complaint. This is week one so where doing pretty great so far.

The district is doing well. I´m still the sisters' district leader, and they, are, awesome. Sister Howard and Sister Malovich stayed together, I´m not surprised. Sister Fullmer, was transferred out of Bayaguana and Hermana Pelico received Sister Burgess, a missionary from Belize, a British colony Island in the Carribean. The zone, in general, had a lot of new missionaries coming in but they are all excellent missionaries and were looking forward to this transfer.

This Week Elder Ortiz and I have been finding people to teach. 

Experience. Okay, I believe it was Wednesday morning we decided to contact. We found a couple a people and put return dates with them. Then at like 11:50 we were on the road back to the apartment. We walked by this small shop with a lady outside, We were going to pass by but I felt like we should talk to her. Her name is Lady Laura and come to find out she had met with the missionaries before. She told us she wanted to understand better who is Joseph Smith, repeatedly and happily we told her we would love to come back and answer her questions. We came back the next day and had a great lesson with her and her boyfriend. Come to find out her boyfriend's mother is very sick and has her son very worried, he told us he wants to know why we radiate a tranquility and security, it's basically what he said. 

If we permit Him, the Lord will guide us to those who are prepared for and who need the gospel. 

Love you all, have a great week.
