Another great week out here in Piedras Bonitas,
Comayagua. I am honestly loving it out here. One of the best areas in
the mission in my opinion. The branch is doing great (except for some
gossip between leaders which is really immature and doesnt help anyone).
But I think ill be here for another couple changes...at least i hope
so. Haha you never know in the mission.
Ill try to be quick because i dont have a whole lot of time but
we had a pretty cool adventure on wednesday. We had to go to this tiny
little village to take out some wedding papers for the san pedro sula
mission. Its called ojos de agua and its like an hour in a half from the
city in car, we got a member to take us out there. The road was pretty
ugly so it took us a really long time...we crossed this really sketchy
bridge thats like help up with cords and wood planks. Luckily we made it
across safe and sound with the car and all. then when we got to ojos de
agua we had to go to another village about a half an hour further out
but we couldnt make it in the car we had...then miraculously we found
the only members in this place (there isnt even a branch there) he is
the mayor actually, and they lent their motorcycle to the member we were
with and he went to get the other papers. About an hour later he got
back and we went back home in the car. We were gone ALL day doing that
and we were so tired when we got to our house. I really hope this family
gets married and baptized for all that stuff we had to do haha.
Sunday was great we had a few investigators in church. An
investigator from the military base came and we got to talk to him for a
little while. Right now we are organizing an english tour of the temple
during the open house with all the soldiers and military that want to
go. We were really sad though because la familia guzman didnt show up to
church, we went to their house in the morning and were getting dressed
to go to church and said they would show up a little later but they
never did. We are still working really hard with that family. They are
amazing. They think im so funny haha, like everything i say they laugh
so hard haha its so funny. Like someone knocked on their door during a
lesson and i said it was probably their dog (not that funny) but they
laughed for a good minute straight haha. Their kids are so great. Pray
for that family please!
Also on saturday the whole mission did service for the bishops
and branch presidentes. We showed up to the branch presidents house with
machetes and we cut his lawn and cleaned it up for him. He was really
appreciative.
So im pretty sure that ill be able to call at like 1 or 2, illl let
you know next week the exact hour and see if i can use google or skype
and to see if its skype 5.0...i still have to find an internet cafe that
will be open on the 25th...most places are closed so ill see what i can
do.
Alright well thats about it...I love you all! thank you for your prayers and support. Have a good week
Con amor,
Elder Archibald
