Hey everyone! First, it was so nice to hear from everyone. Thank you so much mom for the pictures! They are priceless on those homesick days :) I am guessing that the CTR pumpkin was mine? It looked really good. but im not sure yet, how to make Family History seem more interesting to teenagers.. haha ill have to think about that one and get back to you next week. And im glad work is going well too. Its great to hear that everyone is doing well, and that everyone is liking school. I remember just sleeping through class and now I am realising how much I was missing! Especially Spanish class, PAY attention in spanish class! haha. Things here have been good. I am still in the MTC here so not a lot goes on but this week has been really fun, and i have been learning so much. The Russian and Portuguese missionaries left this week and we only have 2 weeks left! Then its out to Preach the Gospel.They are going to rock their missions. other then that, I cut my hair and gave an Elder a haircut (thanks for the haircutting stuff mom), I took lots of cool pictures of the sunset(they have the coolest sunset here ever!), Madrid lost to Barcelona at home :( , and we got to go to the temple. It is amazing how strong the spirit is in the temple and it is such a treat to go every week. I would highly suggest to go to the temple as much as you can. I promise it will bless your life soo much.
A cool experience that we had this week was when we go to the park to proselyte I have almost always had a native Spanish or Portuguese speaker in the past with me to teach most the Spanish people and then I would mostly teach in english. But today I was with Elder Rodgers who doesn't know very much Spanish and we gave away a Book of Mormon to a guy from here that only spoke Spanish! It was amazing to me to just open my mouth and watch it be filled with Spanish right when I needed it. I know that the Don de lenguas is real! I love you guys so much and I love the Spanish people! I hope you have an amazing week! And Happy Thanksgiving!
