New Teacher and Stomach Bug

 This week has been more interesting than the last but not by much😂

We got a new Spanish teacher this week and I wish he was our Spanish teacher from the beginning. I feel like I learn so much from him and that my Spanish is getting way better the last week. 

Once again, I got sick. I was doing good till these last 2 weeks. Nothing crazy though just a stomach bug.🤢

The rest of the week has been pretty average nothing super exciting happened. We got an English and Spanish version of the new preach my gospel so felt like Christmas came early.  I've been playing a lot of volleyball but that's about it. 

 I've been meaning to tell you guys about a word we made up called "filicular". It just means picture but it's what we call it for some reason we say that it is a Spanish word.

Spiritual thought,

This past Sunday all the lessons and devotionals where on the Holy Ghost and receiving revelation and I wrote down something in my journal that I thought I'd share. 

"I'm not going to lie I am not the greatest at receiving personal revelation because I have so many distractions and worldly things going through my head. You might laugh at me but some of those things are family, food, GIRLS (the guys laughed at me for that one) and others. Elder Renalnd said "we must eliminate distractions of the world to receive personal revelation." I struggle with this even in my personal study. Either I'm fighting demons to stay awake, or my mind is wandering and I'm just reading the words and not understanding what I'm reading. I know that I can't receive revelation about what I am reading if I'm not even focused on the scripture. This goes along with everyday life. How can we receive revelation if our minds are distracted or in the wrong place? I know that I need to be in the right mindset so I can receive revelation to help me and others throughout my day-to-day life."

During that Sunday devotional given by Elder Renland I felt the spirit stronger than I ever had in my entire life. That message was so powerful to me. I know that we need to make sure that our minds are in the right place to receive revelation and inspiration from the holy ghost.

Also Don't worry about me I'm still alive and still struggling with Spanish jk. Well, kind of😂

Love, Elder Price

P.S I leave for Honduras in less than week I'm so excited!!!!!

Still Alive

  Hey everyone. It's been while since I've written and email.  My mom told me I needed to write an email because apparently some of you are worried about me. I was just waiting to "see if anyone cares about me." Quote from my Dad haha. I'm doing good here in La Esperanza. We put a baptism date with Valentina which is super exciting and we have been working with a few others to try and put baptism dates. Last week we had leadership counsel which was really fun.  Almost everyone there has the same amount of time in the mission as me. Also they served us ribs, potatoes, corn and a roll.  For dessert we had cheesecake. So it was a 10/10 meal. Other than that not much has happened. We've been busy teaching people and playing soccer. I have a new companion since last time I wrote.  He is from Idaho Falls.  Elder Arms I  only have 5 months left in my mission which is crazy but I'm really enjoying being here so I'm guessing they will go by pretty fast. My...

Transfers... Good bye Esperanza

  Sorry I haven't written in a while. But everything is good here. Just to catch you all up on somethings. We baptized a littles girl named Valentina 2 weeks ago. She is the most adorable girl ever. She lives with her grandma.  I also got to baptize her in a river which was soo cool because our church is still unfinished.  A couple weeks ago I got called to be the 2nd counselor in the Elders quorum since we didn't have one. Last Monday we didn't have a very relaxing p-day.  We went and helped pour concrete for the church which is about to be done being built and I got absolutely roasted and was so red.  We spent 7 hours outside working. I had my birthday 2 weeks ago which was so fun. The only bad part was I got covered with eggs and flour 2 different times. Its a tradition here.  We had interviews with President last week and while he was interviewing some missionary's went and played soccer and basketball which was fun. We got sooo sweaty and smelt so...

Las Americas and Miracles!!!

  Hey y'all how are you doing? I'm doing greater than I ever have in my mission. Last week I had to say goodbye to everyone in La Esperanza which was super sad because I love the members there and had a really fun time. Tuesday we traveled to Tegus which took 5 hours to get to transfers. But now I am in LAS AMERICAS with Elder Vasquez. This zone happens to be the zone with the temple. Our ward attends church in the church building on the temple grounds and because of that I get to go to the temple grounds like 3 times a week for activity's and church.  I've always heard that this area is a tuff area because everyone tiene plata(is rich). But I told myself the day of transfers I don't care where I go im just going to enjoy my time there and work hard.(as long as it wasn't monteray HAHA). When I got here we went and visited a ton of members and some investigators and its literally feel like Idaho falls to me, most the members are older but super sweet. I ended up ...
