Hola Amigos, Changes: I'm staying in my area as D.L again but I will be training a brand new missionary for 2 changes. I'm ready and pretty excited! Well I'd like to tell you about my P-Day from last week. I don't ever tell you guys about them because we don't usually do anything that cool. But this week we went to this bread factory that is owned by a member of the Area Country. As an entire Zone we bought ingredients to make pizza and brought them to the dude in the shop. He made us some pizza and we played some cards. It was a pretty chill time if you asked me. We encountered a little tad of problems this past week involving our house. To be honest our house is one of the nicest in the mission. (It might even be the nicest) BUT... There are always issues with the water. One day during the week we decided to clean out our pila because they get pretty nasty after a while. Which meant we had to empty it out. MISTAKE. The next morning we didn't have water in the shower or the toilet. P.S. Usually when this happens we shower with buckets from the pila. But do you remember what I said before Bro!!?? Yeah man! We didn't have a single dropling left! We went 2 days in a row without showering. The 3rd day in the morning we had had enough of this nonsense am I right?! So we grabbed our buckets and snuck down to our neighbors house. We filled up our buckets and finally took some showers. We eventually got our water back the next day. This week my comp and I had to go back to high school. There are some members that that live down the street from us. They are in school again so they have a lot of homework now. 2 Girls. One of them is in college and the other is like a junior. We went to their house 3 times this week to help them out. Clegg helped this girl with some english. I helped the other one draw some timelines and other pics. Also I helped their cousin with her english too. I guess you could call that service. Anyway. We did some real service for some members this week. There's a family that's building another house behind their house. So we had to come to help dig out some deep trenches for the foundation. We were there shoveling and pick axing for 3 hours in the heat of Honduras. I got really sunburned because I didn't put on that stuff. My comp is smart and he did. Also I have some nasty blisters on my hands. But we felt really good for helping them out. This Sunday was bad. Actually It was supposed to be really good. We had a conference that was being broadcasted in all of Central America. A couple dudes from the Seventy talked and Elder Cook talked too. The sad thing is only 2 people talked in spanish. The whole rest of the conference was in english. The bad part is that there was not a translator. My comp and I were the only ones that could understand what was going on. So. I made a decision... I ran up to the pulpit very bravely. I arrived in front of all the people and I was ready to save the day. I began to translate the conference perfectly in Spanish everyone was so happy and started cheering and chanting my name ELDER SULLIVAN!!! ELDER SUL...... Okay guys that didn't happen I'm not that cool sorry. They went the rest of the conference trippin because they couldn't understand. Dang. In the conference they talked about member missionary work and how the members are a big part in the Lord's work. They talked about the importance of the Book of Mormon. They did a test and asked some non members to read just 1 page of The Book of Mormon and write a paragraph or two of what they thought. A lot of them gained powerfull testimonies just from 1 Page! Imagine how much we could strengthen our testimonies if we read it on a daily basis! That's what I'm telling you. If you are not reading the B.O.M everyday. DO IT. The knowledge and the blessings we recieve when we read it are eternal and can help us spiritually and temporally. Gracias Have a good week! Elder Sullivan
