Week of Cake and Baptisms















This week has been amazing and I'm starting to love it here. We have had cake 7 times this week!!!It was Elder Hernadez birthday at the beginnig of the week, so we ended up having cake at 2 different people's house. Then we had cake for a lady's birthday party, then at a baptism, Then on Saturday it was my comp Elder Ramirez birthday and we've had cake 3 times for it.  We plan to have at least one more cake!!!!!  People like to eat and celebrate.

We had a baptism which is sooo awesome but there was a little hiccup, and it was partially my fault but IDK how I would have been able to fix it.  Saturday and we baptized 3 kids, Allison, Elvia and Elvin. I baptized Allison, shes almost the same size as me.   It was kind of hard because the faunt WAS SLOWLY DRAINING!!! By the time I got in the faunt it was lower than my knees.  I didn't know how I was going to do this. It took my 2 tries but I somehow got it. After me, Wixom and Ramirez had to baptize with less water!

Monday- Had a zone P-day for our last one before the transfer and we got money from the President and had so much food and coke.  Someone had the awesome idea to do a water fight so then everyone got soaked.  It turned into cake war, and they smeared it all over everyone's faces. Such a pain to clean up!

Wednesday and Thursday- Went to teguc cause President told Ramirez he could for his birthday.  We were able to go to the biggest mall in our mission, City Mall. He got a super nice watch, and I got a "Sombrero" (It's a cowboy hat).  The next day we went to transfers and I saw some of my friends from the CCM.  
Friday- Went on exchanges for Baptism interviews.  The progress here is awesome. 
Saturday- Baptism Day. We got invited over to the lady's house again but for Ramirez birthday and she made soup!! why soup it's so hot here!! but it was good. Then we had the baptism, went out to eat again with a family and had massive baliadas and more cake!
Sunday- Church and our pensionistas son made amazing wings at his restaurant!!! I got Buffalo and Honey Mustard, and they were the best wings I've ever had. We had the opportunity to take a lady the sacrament who isn't able to make it to church and she has the coolest house Ever!!! It's a main house then if you go out back, she has a little inground pool for little kids. she has a super nice patio, chairs and lights. Then all around are 4 little rooms/ houses. They had bridges connecting them on the second stories and you could go all the way to the roof.  On one of the roofs, you can see a ton of Honduras and even the airport which is far away!! then we had dinner and I got recked in chess twice by Wixom. Have I mentioned I hate chess.
P.s we watched the solar eclipse and got caught hitching a ride.
Welp sorry my emails long but I'm starting to really love it here, I started working out and I'm sore but still love the food!  and I still can't speak Spanish, but I keep trying and won't give up.  I do see progress though.
Love you all, Elder Price

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 ...
