P-Day, New Area, Crazy District Counsel









 Hey how are you all doing? This week has been so crazy. This last p-day we went to Talanga to play soccer and make pupusas. It was so fun we played soccer for 5 hours.  I was dying and in the middle of that we made pupusas and we made more then 100. Everyone ate at least 5. 


We also had a wild district counsel. We started by making brownies and eating pizza then all of the sudden someone said, hey I need a hair cut so someone went and got clippers and 4 people ended up buzzing their head. Don't worry, I'm not one of them. It was wild then we went to the hospital for my follow up and the doctor said I'm healing good but since I'm relatively skinny I can feel where they made the knot of stitches for my hernia.   It's really weird. 

I'm now in a new area because we had transfers. I'm now in Flor Del Campo and I'm white washing it so there is a lot of work that we are doing. I'm with Elder Ruiz who I knew really well before. We are working hard to know the area and people.  I can already tell this area is so much better than my last area. The members are asking when they can go visit people with us. There aren't very many stairs and the house is big but a little ugly HAHA.   I do have a nice view and a staircase like the one back home but no running water. 
But me and my comp have been on that grind lately.  

I honestly can't remember what else happended this week beside it rained a ton and we where soaked all day. When it rains here it rains really hard. Like 30 minutes of rain here is more than we get at home in an entire year.  Umbrellas only help keep your head dry HAHA. But its fun sometimes. 

This week in church we talked about integrity. To have integrity is important because there is a lot of opposition in this world and temptations. When we are with other people or tempted by things out side of thing we believe we need to stay strong. We talked about a lot of examples in the scriptures and one was Daniel and the lions den. He was thrown into a pit of lions for praying to God because they made it illegal. He knew the consiqences but still decided to do what was good and he was blessed imensly for that and he didn't get eaten by the lions. We need to be the same and stay firm to the gospel of Jesus Christ and the commandments of God even if that means being "weird or different". I know if we do that we will be blessed like Daniel.  

Thats it for this week.

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 ...
