OIH‏

​Sometimes when you move to a foreign country you learn to accept that many things that happen are just a part of life and there is nothing you can do to change them. And thus why we have: OIH- Only In Honduras

Monday- 

​The best transportation system there is!

Tuesday-

​Just so beautiful! :) And overcast ;)

Wednesday- 
We were in divisions and went and I met a girl named Jocelyn- she knows the church is true and told me the entire seed comparason in Alma 32 while we sat cross legged on her bed with our shoes off (they were wet, of course) as we all tried to cool off in front of  one little fan. Sadly she can´t get baptized yet becuase her husband (who is a less-active member) doesn´t want to get married. But she goes to church every week and just feels grateful she´s found the truth :)

Thursday- 
Divisions again this time with Hermana Moran. We were walking along when I needed to use the bathroom so we went to a woman she talked to once who offered me her cement bathroom with a flimsy curtain. She did have toilet paper so we´re counting our blessings!

It also POURED rain and we just happened to get caught in it :)

 
​Friday-
Now, I don´t know if it´s just laziness, lack of parent attention, or in some cases, lack of money (dipers are expensive!) but it is so common to see naked children everywhere! Especially playing barefoot in the street.
This one happens to be our next door neighbor, Mirian, who had the good fortune of coming right after Hermana Groll made some popcorn.

Saturday- Bueno, Only Hermana Groll.... massaged my feet and gave me a pedicure :)

 Today- as our zone activity we had to complete a series of challenges and if we lost we got water poured on us, but towards the end they stayed true to the Honduran tradition and cracked eggs on our heads. All because I couldn´t quote Ezquiel 3:5 (apparently it´s "very important" when teaching plan of salvation.... say what?!?!) but it was all good- there were so
me in the zone that got like 4 or 5 on their heads!
