Entonces! So I´m healed. Your prayers, fasting and everything worked. 100%. This weekend we had two baptisms. I would´ve sent pictures this week but they are on the camera of my companion. Next week! We, right now, have 2 baptismal goals, which are for sure going to go swimming and we have 2 that are getting
baptized the 26th. Yaaaaay!!! Honestly, I don´t know why but baptisms are cool, but I like more the finding. I guess that that means I´m a man. They say that all men like is the hunt. Huh.
The same word for dog in Spanish is but ("I like this, but..."): pero.
Also, I just almost have disowned liking the service of the baptism. I am honestly really, really, really, REALLY trying to just think of others. I want people to do convenants, yes, but what I really want is missionaries and families that are sealed. I want to return to go with all of our converts to the temple when it´s finished. And other Elders and members feel really good when they do the ordinance. I am trying to enjoy decorating, making phone calls and having everything be perfect FOR the baptism. I don´t know if I´m doing a good job, but any moment when someone can feel better about themselves in a nonegotistical way is fantastic. I like happy people.
So, mom, I have weird news... I can´t use the soaps here. They´re too rough, too hard. And if you´re going to send anything, could you send the bar soaps by Dr. Bronner? The hemp soap? I don´t think that they cost too much and I could used maybe 6 now and 6 more in 6 months. Also, there´s a deoderant that I´m using that I´m almost out of that I´d like too, but I still have some of that. So don´t worry till... I don´t know when. Also, I would really like a few jars (plastic of course) of coconut oil to help with healing my poor, goofy white skin from the tropical sun.
I´m like a tortilla in an oven slowly browning. I´m going to leave Honduras looking like James Brown. Or James Black! Whoo!
I think I´ve lost another ten pounds or something. I´ve been trying to be 100% obedient in doing exercises. Every morning 30 minutes, runnin stairs. I have like 3 minutes left. No, 1 and a half. I want you all to know that I love you so much. And like Isabel said, you don´t feel the missing of others, but sometimes it would be nice to have a hug or pass time with you. But there´s a time for everything. I want you all to read your liahonas more! I love you!
Sincerely, Elder Hill
