Temple trip, Book of Mormon, triple double and weekly run though.

 Welcome back to the crazy adventures of Elder Price, first I've been doing a bad job at adding a spiritual thought and I had an awesome experience this week so we will start with that.

We had the opportunity as a companionship to go to the temple on Wednesday. While I was in the temple, I prayed to be able to feel the spirit more often and I knew I was almost done reading the Book of Mormon so I asked that when I pray that I will receive an answer.  Friday, I finished the Book of Mormon during my personal study for the FIRST TIME EVER in my life which is kinda sad to say. Well at the end of Book of Mormon in Moroni 10:4 it says to once you receive these things pray with a sincere heart to know if it is true. So, I went into my room with 0 distractions and knelt down and prayed during my prayer I said, " Please let me know if the Book of Mormon is true and is the word of God." As soon as I said that sentence, I felt the spirit stronger than I had ever felt in my life to the point I basically started crying because I've been struggling to feel the spirit or at least recognize it while I've been here.  I was just overwhelmed with happiness.  I can personally testify that the Book of Mormon is true, it is another testament of Jesus Christ, and it is the word of God!!!!
Since it's Elder Wixoms final full week we were putting in the work and got some crazy stuff done! We got a triple double this week. We had 11 New members at church, 10 new people contacted and taught and 10 lessons with a member helping. 
Weekly run through:
Monday- Went to villa de San Antonio to play soccer and had a Honduran dish called pollo chuco for the first time. Welp IDK who made it but it ended up getting a ton of people in our zone sick and Elder Mills companion got it the worst.  I've had stomach problems from Monday to Saturday so it hasn't been a fun week in that sense.
Tuesday- 2 recent converts Evelyn and Elvia both got dengue so we went and gave them both blessing and we ended up walking Evelyn to the hospital. Don't worry, they are both healthy now. After we went shopping and I bought a 10-pound bag of pancake mix and a jar of Nutella that I have used basically every day this week.
Wednesday- We woke up at 4am to catch a bus to go to Tegucicalpa. Good thing I'm used to that due to all the early morning temple trips (shout out to basin city 1st ward). The temple was amazing and no I didn't fall asleep. After, we split up and it was just me and Elder Ramirez for the day and we went to the mall for dinner and then went and visited his old are of Carizal. The people there were so nice and we stayed the night with the elders there.
Thursday- We woke up and went straight to a Multi zone conference with President. 3 of 8 zones where there so it was a ton of missionary's and there was some good food. It was super awesome too because we basically had all of the guys from casa 5 (MTC) who went to Honduras where there (R.I.P Fowler IDK Where he is) Then after we traveled home, and it was probably the worst bus I've ever taken here.
Friday and Saturday- Finished the Book of Mormon on Friday and on Saturday we gave all the people that we have recently baptized photos of their baptizm's in frames as a gift from Wixom who leave's in 10 days.
Sunday- Went to church, ate lunch, Went to the choir again and IDK how but somehow, I got dragged into it so now I'm in a stake choir and if I stay here another transfer, I have to sing during stake conference. After we went to Familia Swuazo and watched the Fighting Preacher which is a great church movie that I would totally recommend watching.
Also, It's been raining a lot lately because of a hurricane on the northwest coast of Honduras!
Anyways, Still not working out, always tired and missing my family.
Love, 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 ...
