¡ Bon Día !
Well another fun week has come and gone :) we are currently in
Coruña just hanging out for a bit and we just finished balling out on the
court. later today and tomorrow I'll be on an intercambio with GABE :) should
be a fun time. I can finally say I've had a best friend as a (temporary)
companion haha! But anyways here's the week :)
So I feel like now is the time to explain Antonio the Spaniard.
haha. He is a guy we found on the street and we showed him the #iluminaelmundo
video. He said it "woke him up" and then he came to meet with us in
the church. The first lesson, he was crying a lot and telling us about his
beliefs in Jesus Christ and how he wants to change his life. It was a bit
weird, we weren't exactly expecting it but it was awesome. Then we taught him
the restoration and he really enjoyed it, and this past week we taught the plan
of salvation. We invited our branch president to accompany us and it was such a
spiritual lesson! We invited him to be baptized and he said no for the moment,
but he does want to keep finding out more about our church. The dude has come
to church the last 2 sundays in a row and has read the first 70ish pages of the
Book of Mormon! So we are hoping things go well with him and that he can
continue doing his part to receive an answer! Please pray for him!!
The people we visited last week from Uruguay are doing a lot
better this week! Milka, the daughter, said that the doctors told her that she
only had 1 week of treatment left because she started to heal so quickly! She
called me and told me the news and then expressed thanks for the priesthood
blessing and to thank my mom for her advice as well :) it was such a miracle!
It seriously is so amazing to see the priesthood work wonders in the lives of
our brothers and sisters. God gave it to us to use and bless other people's
lives and this week I saw those blessings first hand!! Thank you all for the
prayers on their behalf and thanks mom for being a radiation therapist!!
Other interesting things that happened this week were...
·
I met the first Satan worshipper of my mission... that was a bit
scary
·
We had 1 or more eating appointments every day of the week last
week :)
·
We knocked on maybe 500 doors last week and only received 1
"come back later" hahahaha
·
I cut Elder Morris and 2 other elders hair this morning and they
all look really good. I'm pro.
·
It rained about every single day of the week :) I actually liked
it. Good old Galicia.
Other than that, not too much fun stuff happened! Another normal
week in Ferrol :) I'm happy and loving it, as usual. Attitude is everything up
here, that's something I'm really trying to work on. Sometimes we have a
completely open morning or afternoon with no appointments set up which means a
lot of finding time. We get lots of rejections but it makes it worth it when we
find the one! When we keep in mind that we are finding the one person who is
prepared, it makes it a lot more fun :) I hope you all have a wonderful week
and look for opportunities to share the gospel with those around you. I'll have
a better report la semana que viene 😝 LOVE
y'all! ❤
Con amor (y un besiño hehe),
