Alright well after some exciting days lost in Tegucigalpa for a few days in the richest part full of mansions and Mercedes and 5 star restaurants I made it back to Danli and quickly fell back into my little missionary routine with my new companion Hermana Rodriguez from Progesso, Honduras. She is super super sweet and has 3 months in the mission and we are just seeing miracles and miracles and we have only been back 3 days. We have an investigator that is from Jordan and only speaks Arabic and English so it is a little interesting teaching a lesson solo but really my English is so bad that I can hardly teach good but the spirit is really strong in our lessons and he has been brought to tears a few times so I know he understands just a little bit... or at least he can feel the spirit. Well the peeps in Danli are a lot more receptive when you have a Honduran companion that is for sure and the taxis don’t charge as much either when you have a native haggling their fares down. But Saturday the elders had a baptism and we went and saved the baptism ...again thanks to Hermana Oram who is always prepared! Lets just say the elders thought that a 14 year old girl would fit in an a jumper adult size XXL. But all was good she got baptized and it was a beautiful baptism. But Sunday was perfect we had two little surprises when some members brought some super prepared investigators to church and they are super ready to get baptized. Then Maria de Los Angeles who got baptized last week got sustained as the second counselor in the relief society and then Diego passed the sacrament my other little convert!! These are the moments that make everything worth it!!! Also we had a lesson last night of the first vision and the spirit was so strong like way stronger than I have felt in a first lesson in a long time. Sometimes I just get in a routine and for get how really truly amazing this gospel is we just teach and teach and teach and forget about why we are doing it. But when I have a good lesson when the spirit is really there I know that this is all true and that I am not wasting a single second here. It is hard but it is so worth it.
