Hola Everyone!!
This week was nothing too exciting! we just did
lots of visits and have been trying to teach everyone the importance of no
coffee, and Sabbath day! and our area is really big so we have been running all
over! we visit, nucleus 1,2,and 3, paraiso, concepcion quetzaltepeque, san
bartodo, galicia, and cuevitas! and this week we found out part of our area goes
into Honduras? haha so we may go there! We held a mission temple event as well
this week which was really cool! in the chapel next to the temple we had
classes set up with little 4 to 5 minute lessons of all sorts of different
principles and all of the areas brought investigators and less actives and
stuff! it was really cool! and the temple here is gorgeous! unfortunately we didn't have any of the investigators from our area but we were in charge of a
room! the apostasy and restoration room! and elder Le May was Joseph smith it
was really funny, he had to dress up! I also went into the distribution center and bought all the videos i could find in English haha cause all the ones in the
house are in Spanish and sometimes its nice to wind down at the end of the day
with a church video! Friday was tough for us! in the mission all that matters to
us is our investigators and church attendance and all of our lessons for the
afternoon after study time fell through! nobody was home! so we only taught one
lesson to a new we found while walking around! its the semana santa which is the
holy week and here that is what they celebrate instead of Easter so lots of
people are at the beach and at pools and stuff. Its also the hottest week of the
year so that has been fun haha! However while walking around we did find out
that a boy whose mom was baptized not too long ago just turned 8! his name is Alex and he is the sweetest and happiest boy Ive ever met! i love this kid! so we
are teaching him now and prepping him for baptism in a few weeks!! Saturday
consisted of running around to every single area and inviting as many people to
church as we could! we had 80 at church, it was ward or branch conference so
members from the stake leadership were there to speak and teach. But we were
really happy to have 80! when elder Le May got here the attendance was 40! It
was great!! good messages and happy, but tired missionaries haha! but this week
was awesome and i am excited for the next! This week i have been in the mission
for 2 months.. which is really weird! time flies! --
Love,
Elder Beck
