HOLA FROM HONDURAS

Dear Fam,
I don't have much time to write today. Actually I only have ten minutes because I have been reading your letters and opening photos forever. So, I will just talk about the highlights of the week. This past Saturday, we baptized Franklin (the guy we just married) in a river. It was a crazy day...we didn’t have water, and we couldn’t get a hold of anyone, so we took him to the river, sang hymns, and said a prayer. We gave talks and then baptized him. It was really awesome. We have had some really crazy days this past week. Friday and Saturday we only taught one lesson cuz we were running all over the place. We had to go to San Pedro to help the Zone Leaders out with this wedding they were having, and a whole bunch of other crazy stuff. But it was fun. I like crazy days sometimes. Well this last Sunday, we had four investigators in Church. This Saturday, we are hoping to marry a couple, and baptize the Sister with her daughter cuz the husband is already a member. We also have another new couple that attended Church, and we are hoping to get them to Church another time, and marry them soon. We also are planning on marrying Jesus and Maria Arengtina, a couple that we have been working with for a while. We are going to marry them and baptize Maria because Jesus is a member. So yup, that’s all we have been up to lately...teachin', marryin', and baptizin'! Thank you all for your letters and support. Happy Fathers Day, Dad. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me. There is a letter coming. Have a great week. Love you all. Love, Elder Lee
Here are some pictures:  1-2. We married Franklin and Yami (member) about 3 weeks ago. It was awesome to get him baptized after two years of missionaries working with him. 3. Me walking to Real Del Puente...a residential area. For Honduras, it is a rich colony.

ANSWERS TO ???S

Dear Dad, How are you? This email is just to answer some of your questions. So Chris is going to be down here on Monday. I don’t think anybody I know here in my area would be able to get him from the airport. Nobody has a car and the ones that do have a car are working during the daytime. So I don’t know what he can do. And as for working with me on Monday and Tuesday, that would be awesome. Only Monday we don’t go out and work until 6:00. So maybe he would want to meet up with us Tuesday. I am going to see if it is okay with President. But where is he going to sleep? He won’t be able to sleep in our house. Is he going to rent a car?   What are his plans? We have interviews with President on Wednesday… I will talk to prez. Yes Brother Butts is back in Honduras now. You can call him. I told him you are going to call today. He is awaiting your phone call. He should be able to give you or be able to get you some information. He has about 3 years of traveling from the states to...

HOLA FAM

Lee Family, How is everyone doing? Well, I will have a little more time to write today since there was only Dad's letter waiting for me. So, how did the Oregon Coast treat you guys? I can't believe a year has past since I graduated. That was one of the fastest years ever. The time is flying by so fast. This past week has been kind of weird seeing everyone saying goodbye to Elder Khan, and seeing him prepare to go back home. I don't want those days to come too soon for me. My Comp is a little nervous about going back home. He says he wouldn't mind another month in the mission with me in this area. These last couple of days he has been kind of baggie and has been talking about home a lot. Last night we were up late talking. Tuesday night we are going to be eating like crazy. Everybody wants to feed us their best baleadas and food right before Elder Khan leaves, so food-wise we have been doing alright lately. Well, this last week, we were supposed to marry a couple, so w...

It's very interesting.  I am thin ki ng my hair will get really white here. 6.  The Zona Celestial. We baptized 59 the month of August...Mission record!  Here we are eating a little Chinese food with President. ...
