Ok so this week is full on game time! Last week we have been trying to prepare four people for baptism the 16th for two reasons. they are ready, and two if they are members, they can assist the dedication of the FIRST TEMPLE in honduras (for as we know) a whole long time! Like im thinking... 2000 years or so? BUT it wasnt called Honduras but i think the land of Nephi... BUT back to the stuff that EVERYONE will understand, and less references from the Book of Mormon, we have been working hard with these four and i have never seen satan work harder as well. Two men already decided that we are of the devil and dont want anything to do with us, for doctrine such as worship on the sabbath day being sunday not saturday as they think or the other of the need to stop drinking. BUT the other two are strong and fighting well. One has a lot of problems of being from the mountains and not being educated or familiar with talking with people. BUT he has been fighting it nicely. His desire is to finish learning to read and write to serve a mission like us. The other had a good friend whos dad is a member, rob him of his weeks pay from work. He now has NOTHING to put gas in his truck to work or feed his family. He almost didnt go to church this sundy but had the impression that it was satan working on him, so he went. We also are getting the members who are worthy but not animated about this dedication and that has been keeping us busy! Me and my companion who is from mexico are doing great. two mountains of pride, and its been a very humiliating experience. he talks WAY more then i do, imagine that! BUT its been great for both of us, because we have learned so much from the other. the best part is how willing we both are for this area because we both know how great it can be if the missionaries really give it all and arent just here on vacation, or  for others to see how great we are. Well... thats about all on this end. Thanks for all the suppot that you have been giving me, and helping me stay on track! all your letters and emails have kept me happy and focused!
