About LDS missions in Honduras
There are currently 4 active LDS missions based in Honduras, in 3 cities across 2 regions. Some cities carry more than one: San Pedro Sula (2). 2 missions are based in the national capital, Tegucigalpa.
Mission cities range from near sea level at San Pedro Sula (90 m / 295 ft) to Comayagüela at 1,084 m (3,556 ft).
Missionaries serve across areas set by their mission, which can reach well beyond the city the mission is based in, and they are transferred between those areas during a mission.
Local time in Honduras
Every mission in Honduras keeps America/Tegucigalpa. The clock below is live, and follows daylight saving where it applies.

Always use your Missionary Portal and your mission’s own “what to bring” instructions when deciding what clothing or equipment to pack. This describes the weather, not what to take.
Languages
Spanish is the language most widely used across Honduras.
- Spanish
This describes the country, not the assignment. The language a missionary is called to speak is set by the Church and stated in the call itself — it can differ from the languages above, and missionaries serving in the same country are not always assigned the same one.
Preparing to serve in Honduras
If you have received a mission call to Honduras, begin with the instructions in your Missionary Portal and the mission’s own letter — those are the only sources that speak for your mission. These guides cover the practical side nobody sends you: the paperwork, the shopping, the packing and the last weeks at home.
