The Rest of the La Ceiba Trip

Wednesday we did more interviews at the Independencia chapel. We attended the Acasias district council. We went to lunch at Denny's afterwards with the AP's and then we all split up. Elder Ortiz did divisions with Elder Alvarez and Elder Jimenez.  I went with Hermana Castillo and Hermana Gomez. Pres went with Elder Zaldivar and Elder Najarro. Beattie went with Elder Baer and Elder Peck.  Elder Ortiz stayed in La Ceiba.  He worked with Alvarez and Jimenez again on Thursday.  Then Friday, he went to Jutiapa and worked with Elder Berg and Elder Jurca. Then he took a bus home alone on Saturday.  Elder Beattie came home with us on Thursday. He did divisions with the ZL"s in Santa Rita, Elder Rogers and Elder Avila, on Friday.

Multizone 3 Zone Conference

We had Multizone 3 Zone Conference in La Ceiba. It was a great conference.  The AP's talked about committments (pray, read BOM, and go to church), followup, my baptismal progress.  I talked about how it is possible to change (how if Jesus can change water to wine, he can change me). President talked about lists of gold and the importance of getting people to attend church the first Sunday. We had a great muscial number, My Heavenly Father Loves Me.

Elders Jurca and McDowell

Elder Perez, Elder Miles, Hermana Cordon, Elder Ortiz, and Elder Najarro. They were all on Roatan together.

Elders Wilson, Huber, Tatlow, and Jones. They are all in Saba right now. They are having a blast. I think they are all of our tallest elders except for Elder Beattie.

After zone conference Pres did a bunch of interviews.  We went to dinner at BBQ Chicken. It was a Korean BBQ place.  It was delicious. The AP's stayed in a hotel tonight.

 

Multizone 3 P-Day

We drove to La Ceiba Sunday afternoon. We listened to the 2nd session of conference in the car.  We did interviews with Zona Montecristo at the Montecristo chapel on Sunday night.  Monday for p-day all the missionaries went to One-Gym to play soccer in the morning. Kirt and I went to Playa Peru and went swimming. The water was very shallow for a long time so it was very muddy looking. In the afternoon, everyone came to the Independencia chapel. They played football, basketball, watched a movie and played cards while president did interviews. 

Dinner at Applebees/IHOP with the AP's after the interviews

The AP's slept on our couches tonight because their was nowhere for them to stay and we were all so exhausted.
