Long bus ride

Hi everyone! This week we have done soooo much! We found 2 new families! And 11 new investigators in total! It was a pretty good week for us sisters here in Marcala. I am sorry I haven't been taking very many pictures, I will try to have my camera out more, to take more!
I hope the family reunion is going well, and that all of the kids are having a great time! I wish I was there with you all, but we will definitely do another one when Cami and I are home!!! 

One of the new families, Familia Rosales, are very evangelical, but they have lots of questions about everything, like why did the Book of Mormon come out AFTER the Bible? and lots of other, very deep questions, but the tough thing is, they always say, ´´Sin compromiso¨ which means, without commitment, which means we can never set up another specific time to go and visit them. But they are always at their house, so that's nice. And at the end of our last visit with them, the father asked, ´´So, what happens to my family that didn't accept Christ as their savior?´´ And, so, our next lesson we are definitely teaching about the Plan of Salvation, and that everyone has an opportunity to accept the Gospel.

Yesterday, Hermana Gallardo and I went to Tegucigalpa for a Sisters activity! It was pretty fun. All of the sisters in our mission (a total of 48) were there! It was so good to see everyone. And there were a lot that I had never seen before! Its crazy to think that one of them will be my new companion next week!!!! CRAZY!!! But the activity was like a talent show. There was a lot of cultural things too! It was really fun, but the four hour bus ride there, and the four hour bus ride back, wasn't so fun. My companion gets super car sick, and the last 30 minutes of the bus ride she was throwing up out the window. I felt sooo bad! And, it got all over the side of the bus....so that wasn't too pretty. hahaha. 

Good new is, that we have a baptism planned for this Saturday!!!! We are baptizing a family in a river! Olvin, the dad of the family, has always wanted to be baptized like Jesus, so that's what we are going to do!!! It should be fun! And I will take lots of Pictures! 

I love you all! Thank you for your continual support!

Have a great week!
