Hey there familia and
friends, the weeks are going so fast that I really cant think twice and here we
are again. I am doing good though and just enjoying life so much and doing my
thing. We are doing a lot of good things here in Comayagua. So lets get down to
the sweat report shall we!
So this week we spent
a lot of time focusing on what we can do better as a zone. We have 10
companionships in our zone and a ton of news, so we are really focusing on
getting after it each day. We have set the bar high along with president with
the teaching standards that we want to achieve every day. So I will share the
love with ya’ll haha.
So we are trying to
teach 3 lessons every day with a member, 4 others leciones, 10 contacts, 3 less
actives, every day. It’s all based off of organizing your time and getting
after it. So this week we had a meeting with a zone and we put together
something pretty cool that we are going to do to motivate the zone to getter
done. So we put a thing together called the ENERO MADNESS. So it’s a huge pool
with our zone and it’s based off a weekly competition, so you have to complete
with these standards to get a point for the day, you get all or nothing. So at
the end of the week they will see who wins. It’s going to be a fun one. So that’s
what we are doing as far as that!
What else do I have
for ya... We are currently teaching a family right now and the husband is 78
and the wife is 40!! Crazy, I know!!!!!!!! But they are amazing. They literally
are the perfect match for one another if you can imagine that one haha They are
the familia Madrano, they are going to be baptized soon. We are teaching a
decent amount, we’ve gotta get some things moving and help the members like the
missionaries more and support us in our work. There was a missionary here last
change that RUINED a lot of things with the members and so it has hurt the work,
but don’t you worry we’ve got things in the process of turning it around. Side
note, we are teaching a dad of members that is not baptized and his name is
Mariano, kinda cool! So we have about 6 people that should be getting baptized
in the next month or so. We shall see. It’s all in the Lords hands. So the
people we got are great, just continuing to find new gators and help them move
a long! What else...
Oh, so this week we went
to the temple, it was great. We went and visited hno mejia and their family and
they literally are seriously the most amazing people. They fed us and we played
on their trampoline and all and it was a great time for us all. We had to wait
around for a few hours to get into our session so we headed up to his house to
have a good time for a little bit. I am so grateful for their family. They
have been an amazing blessing in my life here on the mission. I love them.
So we are grinding
and doing our thing baby! We are getting after it and enjoying every day or it!
Elder C. and I are doing great. We are enjoying every day so much it’s not even
funny. It’s been such a good time to say the least. We lift every day at 5AM so
watch out Gi, aka American Woman!!! I am coming for you! And Mr. 210 you better
watch out too, I am coming in hot and strong, gotta find the one when I get
back if you know what I mean! jeje So trying to getter’ done. Other than that just
running with our heads cut off and trying to get all that we have on our plate done
and trying to help the others make it happen as well. So ,we are doing our
thing and enjoying it every day.
So we did have an
activity this week on Wednesday at church and we killed it! It’s like a familia
home evening but we do it at the church and play games and all and it’s
something that I have started in every area and it’s literally THE KEY. So the
members were loving it all, they were getting after it. Other than that hnas y
hermanas, todo bien no se precupe, we are doing what the Lord wants and I know
that we are going to see the fruits of his labor.
So in the store this
week we were buying food and I met an academy grad that is stationed at the AF
base here in Comayagua. She was cool and graduated in 2009. We talked for a
little, she was cool. Everywhere you go you see people that you just feel so
close too. I love this country and the people. My love for them...I can’t even
describe to you how I feel about the country and them, I love it here so
much.
Thanks so much for
your love and support family and friends. I love you. Help me stay focused
because I need to make this time special, this is not my time, its the lords
time. I love it and living it up and cant wait to see you all but i have to
stay focused and the things after will come into place. I love the people and
the lord to much to think about home right now, yes its on the mind but there
is just to much to do and little time. I encourage you each to give more to the
lord. Go up up and away and do not put boundaries. Our success do not have
limits, make each day count
Aim high in all that
you do and put your best foot forward,
Con mucho amor!
Elder Long
