Okay so New Years was crazy!!!!! Our little tiny tin roof house was shaking the whole night!! It was sooo loud I didn’t sleep too great but that was okay!! I ATE 6 TAMALES ON NEW YEARS EVE!!! Oh I was soooo full but the people don’t feed us here ever so I took advantage of the opportunity... I love tamales so much!!! We went to the temple with the branch on Tuesday and Hermana Alonzo and I just took our investigators and others that couldn’t enter around and talked about the temple and all of that! The temple is soooo pretty I was sad we couldn’t enter though! I saw Hermana Naegle when we were there because her zone was there for a session! She looked so great she is in the city and she was so positive as usual! It definitely sounds like a different experience in the city! Entonces we got home Tuesday and we got a call that all of the Oriente was going to the temple on Friday to do a session!!!! Oh my goodness!!! I cant even explain how great Friday was!!!
I love the temple and want every single one of our Heavenly Father´s children to receive the blessings of this sacred place!! I was reading a talk from conference no me recuerdo pero I think that Craig C Christensen gave it but he talked about the sacrament and he said that every week when we take the sacrament we promise to receive every saving ordinance in the temple!!!! I had never thought about it but we have all made this promise and how important it is that we keep this promise and always look towards the temple!!!
Well Carlos is doing great he is progressing and has a baptism date for the 17 de ENERO!!!!! I am so happy for him!! He is so diligent! Oh I totally kind of yelled/testified to a JDub this week that was bashing the book of Mormon I get a little frustrated and whipped out my Libro de Mormon and told her "right here in my hands I am holding a sacred book that has the word of God!! If you want to learn more about Jesus I can show you hundreds of verses!!!! and some more stuff..... I finally spoke in correct Spanish!!!!
Okay I love you all!!!

(All us missionaries del Oriente (mountains) filled the ordinance room and it was all in Spanish and I was sooo worried that I wouldn’t understand anything but it was so good I understood almost the whole session and I was able to do way more than in English!!! It was seriously the best experience of my life!!! When I walked into the celestial room I felt so close to my Heavenly Father I felt right at home in the middle of this crazy foreign country!!! I sat down and looked next to me and there were two big couches and after staring at them for a while I noticed that they are the exact same fabric as the two chairs in the house (the haunted ones!) The couches in the celestial room in Tegucigalpa Honduras!!!! Then of course I started bawling because I felt even more at home!!))))
