So
because of the new rules and guidelines regarding the new schedule for
missionaries, Hermana Spencer and I decided that we were going good to
change things up. We can decide when we do our studies and take our
lunch and what not so we have decided that rather than doing most of our
studies in the mornings, we are going to just do our planning and then
leave because there are so many more opportunities for work in the
morning, it's cooler so there are people out and about to talk to. So
then we will come in for lunch and do our studies because honestly from
about 2-7 there isn't a soul on the street. It's insane. Spaniards
really take their siesta time very sacredly. It isn't until like 8:30
that people start filling the streets. So yeah, it's been working well
for us! And it also saves us from some of the heat too.
I
get to meet and learn about so many people. This has to be the best
part of serving a mission. The members here and the random people we
meet are some of the sweetest most genuine people I know. They are just
so so kind; I love doing this.
So remember Luisa
from last week? Well we set a Cita with her AND SHE ACTUALLY CAME!
MILAGROS. We had a buenísima lesson with her and her friend Manuel. We
were able to teach them that God isn't just an energy, that He is our
Heavenly Father and He is a person and then we taught them that we can
pray to Him too! How cool is it that we can do that? How lucky are we to
know that God lives and that He loves us and wants to communicate with
us? I just found a whole greater appreciation for my Heavenly Father
because of this experience. Also was it Father's Day on Sunday? I
literally have no idea?
In
my personal study I have been following the life of Christ and coming
to really know my Savior. I'm taking the challenge that President Nelson
reissued at conference to read and mark every verse about Jesus Christ
in the Topical Guide. I love it so much! Also I have the first paragraph
of the Living Christ in Spanish memorized 😎 I Love Jesus Christ! I
could study Him and his life everyday for the rest of my life, and I
plan too. He is the greatest man alive and I have such a profound
appreciation for Him. How cool are the things that I get to teach
people? The people here all love Jesus Christ like I do, so that's
pretty neat.
Now for some bullet points
• This week I witnessed two very Spaniard men trying to talk/yell in
English and oh my goodness... I thought I knew humor before the mission,
but I was sadly mistaken. It was single-handedly the best and funniest
occurrence that has ever happened in my existence. I love Spaniards.
•
I can get 4 loaves of fresh REALLY GOOD AND CRISPY bread for 1 euro.
Which consequently means I can gain 5 pounds for only one euro too!
Wahooo how fun
• It is hot. Before I leave the Piso
I get my hair and clothes wet but no worries, it is already dry by the
time we cross the street.
• I love my small little Pueblo Alcalá. I love it here so much. The hills are killer but I love being able to climb them.
• Tomorrow we are having taco Tuesday for our last district meeting
because Our DL is getting transferred and theheheohats sad but I'm
excited!
