cool week. honestly weve just been rushing around alot trying to get everything ready for the meeting we had on Thursday with Tad R. Callister. but everything went super smooth which was awesome cause its always a lil bit stressful when a general authority comes. but it was cool. he talked alot about the atonement and how essential it is in our lives and how we need to teach it with clarity in our lessons. definitely learned that its something i need to better in my lessons. but apart from that it was a super normal week. we did get to have stake conference this week which was dope because our mission president came and talked to the stake and i love when our president talks. he told the members how they need to use their technology to help the missionaries because with our 1975 brick phones we cant really use the internet to our advantage. the man is a good speaker. but all in all im out here surviving. enjoyin my time.

Late night with the secretaries after the Callister meeting

another week in the office. its good as always just full of stress and fun. We´ve been running around this week getting documents and stuff ready for missionaries that are leaving. and this week Elder Callister (the Sunday school general president) is coming so we´ve got a ton of stuff to get ready for the meeting on Thursday. Should be pretty fun. As far as any work goes we havent gotten a whole lot of time to work in our area this week because weve been so busy in the office but were hoping to work a lil better this week. still enjoyin the mission and skkkkkrrrrtttting up on a year so thats dope.

feels

well i can honestly say that this has been the longest and hardest year of my life. but for those of you that know me, you know i dont like talking about feelings so ill leave you with this. Im so grateful for this church. i have far from a perfect testimony, im far from a perfect member and im definitely far from being a perfect missionary, but this year with everything that has happened, taught me exactly that. Life is not perfect. I think alot of times we say that just because im a member, nothing bad is ever going to happen or because i go to church every week life will always be happy. But realistically its not always gonna be like that.  Sometimes we can do everything exactly right and were still gonna face challenges. The most important thing is that we keeping moving forward with faith. Its been rough but im trying to do that and i know that all will be well in the end. Love you guys and im sorry, thats as mushy as ill get in my emails i promise.

secretary life

Honestly within a week the mission life has changed liked crazy. Now that I'm in the office there is a whole lot of responsibility and crazy different schedule. So pretty much what I do is every day from Monday to Friday, we get to the office at 9 and work until 4. I'm in charge of all the baptismal records and all the stats of the mission and if anyone needs to move houses in the mission they talk to me. I'ts pretty tough but it also comes with a lot of sweet benefits. I actually got to take a HOT shower for the first time in like 9 months lol. We also are the only Elders who get car privileges and our house has a washer from the 1800s but it's 1000 times better than the washing by hand I've had to do the past months. I'ts honestly really cool. I know it's gonna be stressful at times but it's definitely worth it. I think it'll be a really cool experience. not much else hattnin, just livin as lavish as possible in Honduras right now.
