12/29 E-Mail

OK! This week was really bad as far as lessons go. Just cause it’s Christmas and either the people are gone, or they have tons of family and don’t want us at the moment. Our main investigator is in Tegucigalpa right now proposing to his girlfriend (whom we haven’t taught yet). But he is straight up gold. He’s progressing extremely slowly by the standards of this mission (we´ve been teaching him for almost a month and a half now...) and his baptismal date is for the 10 of January, but we’ll probably put it off so we can teach the spouse and baptize them both. We have another investigator that was going to be baptized this past Saturday, but hadn’t talked with her husband about it, so we waited. Yesterday we taught the husband and mother and cousin, and they are all pretty interested so we’ll see how that plays out.
OK, houses are way, way smaller than in the states. "Big houses" here are half the size of ours (in Arizona) and I’ve only been in two that have airtight seals on the doors. Our apartment is a one bedroom with a baby sized bathroom attached. It’s a little bit bigger than Megan’s room. But in our mission its against the rules to have more than one companionship living together, so it’s a big deal when we get to have a companionship spend the night (which happens every now and again cause the bus we take for San Pedro is at 4 am and no one wants to walk from the other house in our district down to the terminal).

I can’t wait for the ties and candy.
Love you guys!
