Not much went down this week. We did find out some crazy stuff about one of our contacts. So it's a 15 year old girl, but she's covered in tats and has crazy blue and green hair and dresses really immodest. Aparently a member in our ward that we were talking to used to live by her. And she told us some crazy stuff. She's married to the boss of one of the gangs here in Honduras. But he's in jail right now. So that means that she has to take over. She is the BOSS of the gang now!! The girl has told stories to this member because they are still friends. Stories of when she has killed people. One day she entered into a house and killed the mom of two little kids and now they are on their own. When she doesn't have money she just goes to a store and robs it! The cops know everything but they are scared to put her in jail or else the gang will go for them! Man Honduras is literally ran by gangs. The cops can't do anything, but I'm glad that God protects us as missionaries because we pass by that girl almost every day and she carries a gun, but nothing has happened. Andrea didn't get baptized because she wants to travel to Roatan to tell her parents and get their permission first so now it's programmed for the 22nd of Sept. We will have 2 tisms this week and another the next! This week we were walking and saw a bunch of pure gang members playing basketball. There was music going really loud and the hoop wasn't normal. It was a rim with a net but no backboard. They just had it nailed to a branch of this massive tree but it was basically the height of a normal hoop. Anyway, as we were passing I realllly wanted to play because I have always dreamed of this moment to school the gang members on the court! Well, they let me play. The first pass I got I juked some dude out and did a Euro step and made it. Everyone was like dang this guy's good. Like 30 seconds passed. I got the ball again crossed 2 guys up, did a dirty spin move to juke the 3rd, and nailed the jumper swish. In that moment everyone freeeeeaaaked out. There was even a group of girls in this wooden house above screaming and cheering. All the bros gave me a bro hug of respect and then we bounced. Super dope moment. I hope to return one day hahaha. That's about all that happened if you asked me this week. Love you guys!
