SURVIVED MY FIRST TRANSFER! :)


Hey everyone! Wow...I can't believe I already have one transfer in Honduras. It was only four weeks because of Christmas but still! So we had transfers last week and my companion got transferred. It was crazy....we weren't expecting it since I am still in training. And I was SO scared because I only have a month here and I barely know the area and the people...it was really hard to have faith and trust that this was what the Lord wanted. But I know that the Lord knows me better than I do, because I am so glad that we had transfers! My new companion, Hermana Bahr, is awesome! She is also from Arizona and only has 4 months in the mission, but she is part Mexican so she is basically already fluent in Spanish. I am super excited...I am going to learn so much in the next two months! Really, I'm excited.

In other news, the work here has been rough. We don't have very many investigators and the ones we do have are having problems...no one ever wants to come to church! We had a baptismal date with our investigator Ligia, but now not so much. She is super busy and still hasn't come to church yet, and the last lesson we had with her wasn't so great. We read 2 Nephi 29 with her(We have a bible and we don't need anything else!) with her and even after that, she still has her doubts about the Book of Mormon. But she doesn't even read it, which is a problem....yeah its frustrating. But on the bright side, we found a couple that is interested in the gospel! Our dinner appointment fell through so we ate at a little restaurant here and when we were leaving they started talking to us and actually asked us to give them a two minute summary of our religion. YEAH! So we will see how things go with them.
Thats about all I got for this week...just remember to always trust in the Lord and accept His will as your own, even if it isn't what you want at the moment, because I promise it will be the best thing in the end :) Have a good week!
