TRUST IN HIM
Hey everybody!!! Life just keeps chugging along here in Honduras! This week has been a great week, and one of the best we have had here in Copan as for teaching investigadors!
Last week President Bush informed me that he wanted us to split the area, because before us and the Hermanas were sharing all the area, but know we have split it, and we also decided to split the members so we can be more efficient. I feel that thus far it has proved successful!
This week Elder Lozano and I decided to really buckle down and work hard to find new investigadors. We were able to find a lot of great people! Currently we dont have any body that is really progressing, but we are hoping that of these people we were able to contact, some will come to the knowldege and truthfulness of the message we share.
There are so many great people here in Copan! And they all life Christ, and love to listen to our messages, but have been blinded so much by the craftinez of the Devil, and often times don't have the desire to change and ask God what he would have them do.
But I know that the time is coming! I know that this area will progress, and we will have a babtism!
I have been learning so much here in Honduras! I love this Gospel and I love my Savior Jesus Christ! I have been trying to focus my studies more on Him. As I have started reading the Book of Mormon over again, I have been able to find the key to living his gospel.
TRUST
If we will truly put our trust in our savior and redeemer. If we will submit all we want and all we think, and trust in his love, his mercy, and his command. If we will follow him, and do has he has showed and tought, we will recieve his promised blessings!
When you really think about it, doesn't it make sense? If he created us, if he loves us, if he died for us, if he is our God, shouldnt we listen to him?
My invitation today is put your trust, put your life, and put your future in the hands of God. Humbly submit to his will, and I solemley testify that you will find peace, you will find joy, and you will recieve the greatest gift that God has prepared for his children which is Eternal Life!
I love you all! I know that God loves us! I know that Jesus Christ will lead us and guide us to his loving arms if we follow him! I know that his Church, his Authority and Priesthood has been restored, and the world is being prepared for his return!
Have a great day! I love you all!

This week has been a good one. Semana Santa. There tons of Cathlic celebrations, it was super interesting, and they did these carpet things that were actully super cool.
More then anything My companion and I are continuing to work hard.
I have started reading the Book Of Mormon again, and I am amazed the great Faith that Nefi had. I love how many times he talks about being faithful in keeping the commandments. Sometimes this life isnt easy, but we have to firm, we have to faithful in keeping the commandments and trusting in God!
I love you all! Be Faithful! I know God and Jesus Christ live! I love this Gospel! I love you all!

CASA ABIERTA
Hey everyone! This week was a crazy week! It was so great! Basically Monday-Wednessday was full of inviting and preparing for the Open House. Then on thursday we had a practice run through with the members. Thursday night President Bush, Hermana Bush, and the AP´s, Elder Dipko and Elder Vega arrived. We went over to the Hotel in the night, and ate Dinner! It was amazing! I ate a super good sandwitch, and a piece of Oreo cake. Then we went to our house with the AP´s!
Following that we showed President and Hermana Bush what we were planning wih the activity, they gave us some suggestions, and we set up all of the things that Hermana Bush had brought down.

On friday we had the Zone conference here in Copan Ruinas! It was a really good zone conference! I learned a lot about the impotance of working with members, and the imporance that they have calling and assignments.
After the Zone conference we ate lunch, and then each companionship was given 40 invitations and an assigned area to help invite more people to the activity. We were able to pass out 500 invitations in 1 hour with the whole zone!
Following that we showed President and Hermana Bush what we were planning wih the activity, they gave us some suggestions, and we set up all of the things that Hermana Bush had brought down.
Then Elder Lozano and I were able to go eat dinner with the AP´s and President Bush! We basically had a boys night out! We went and ate tortas (Mexican Food) and while we were waiting for a food, we started talking to some English guys. (I love the English accent) it was super interesting. We a really good discusion about some of the things we believe. There were 3 guys, patrick, rey, and another (I forgot his name) they didn´t believe in God, and we discussed many things, yet they were verry respecful.
Then on Saturday we went early to bag juices that we had for the activity, and then went to the church to set everything up completely. Then we started that activity at 2! The acivity went super well! I would have loved to see 400 peole like we had originaly hoped, but we had about 20 non members come, and lots of members and less actives. So it was a very succesful activity. If nothing else, I know that the activity helped the members grow, and learn, and gain a desire for missionary work! And the 20 people who did come were all verry good people!
Then on Sunday we had church, and Julio Cezar Hernandez was called as a counselor in the branch presidency! I am so excited for him, he will do great, and it will help him grow!
After church we went to have interviews with our mission president! I love President and Hermana Bush! They are so awesome! They are so wise! I was able to recieve great counsels, and am so excited for the work here in Copan Ruinas!
Elder Lozano and I have decided to work a lot more with the members, especially the youth!
I love this work! I love this Gospel! I know that god is at the head of this work! He loves us, he knows best! We just have to do our best and trust him!
I love you all!

A PROPHET from GOD
Hey everyone! First of, I loved Conference!!! I hope you were all able to watch or listen to conference, and receive instruccion from our living prophets and apostles, the servants of the Lord. And if not, I would invite you to visit www.lds.org and see what the prophet and the apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints had to say. I think this is deffinantley a moment we should all take advantage of because the bible teaches us that we can know if a prohpet is true or false through thier fruits. And I testify you will know of a surety of their fruits as you listen to thier words as well as the spirit of the Lord they carry.
Okay, so this week was a great week! Our district has been preparing like crazy for the activity we are going to have this saturday. We have also started passing out all the invitations we have. We made super sweet invitations for this open house, and printed out 1,000! We have a lot of high expectations for this activity and are hoping to have a lot of people come and learn of the Church of Jesus Christ!
So a super cool story is, during the beak of the sunday morning and sunday afternoon session, we went to the parque with all the members to hand out invitations! If you have seen the movie Newsies, I felt like I was living! (And if you havent seen it, I would recomend it, Great movie!) But anyway, it was super cool, we had about 40 people walking down the steets in Copan Ruinas, with everybody in the streets with inviations in their hands reading about the activity of the "Mormons"
Well, to finish my letter today, I would just like to share my testimony as well as the importance and blessing of Conference! I testify, and witness that God is our Father! I know and testify that Thomas S. Monson is his chosen prophet in these latter days. Our beloved prophet spoke to us of the importance to have a testimony and to read and pray to know if the Book of Mormon is true! Other messeages from the servants of Lord included, Charity, Decipleship, Faith, Hope, and so much more! I want each of you to know, that I know that this is Gods Church. This is the Gospel that was founded in the begginings of time, established and tought by our savior and readeemer Jesus Christ and restored through the Prophet Joseph Smith. If you doubt, dont believe, or question, but have the desire to follow Christ and do as he would have you do, in other words, if you love God, follow the counsel of the Pophet Thomas S. Monson. Read, ponder, and pray to know if the Book of Mormon is true! Ask God if this is another testament of his son Jesus Christ. Of this I so testify! I know and believe with all my heart that God loves us! The Book of Mormon and the Bible are 2 ancient scriptures that our father in Heavan has given us, to guide us, to lead us back home!
I love you all! God loves you all! We love God, because he loved us first! Please choose to love God, and follow him!
