Hello!
I look up all the museums in Tegucigalpa and make the rest of the
office go with me on P-Days. Just kidding, they want to go to, haha.
On Saturday we went to the CAC, Centro de Arte y Cultura (the art and
culture center). It turned out to be a really cool place. It was built
in the 1940´s and was this extravagant five-star hotel back in the
day. The building changed uses over the years and then was abandoned
after Hurricane Mitch in 1998. Then in 2012, UNAH (the main university
in Tegucigalpa) bought the building and fixed it up into the CAC today.
The museum has a lot of artwork and objects relating the the
development of the university in Tegucigalpa, along with exhibits
focusing on political and women´s rights movements in Honduras. They
also had some relics from the Mayans and other ancient civilizations
from Central America. It ended up being really cool because it was free
to go in and we got detailed tours from some university students who
worked there. It was also really cool because they offer a ton of
classes to the public. Music, dance, and art. Neat place, and a
successful p-day!

David chose a baptism date. He was a little hesitant at first but we
let him decide and choose when he wanted to do it. We get so much help
from Jina. She knows exactly how to communicate with him. He
understands what baptism is and will be ready for that day.
We
had a really awesome combined family home evening with the other elders
and their investigators. We went with the familia Baeza (he teaches
the gospel principles class) and we brought familia Osorto with us. The
other elders brought one of their investigators as well. We focused on
the scripture in Moroni that talks about being perfected in Christ, and
what we need to do to be able to be better people. Faith is the
foundation of everything and we can´t develop other Christlike
attributes until we have faith.
Yesterday
we taught a family that we contacted a few days ago. They are super
awesome and really new to the area. They have only lived there for just
a few days. The husband had a lot of great questions and was really
receptive. It was really funny, because they told us that they were a
little hesitant when we contacted them because they thought that we were
FBI or something. haha. I guess that could happen when two gringos are
walking around in ties.
Have a great week!
