Dearest Family and Friends!

HELLO! To be completely honest, it really feels like I just wrote you yesterday. This week FLEW by. I´ve been out for a month already. SO CRAZY. And in less than 2 weeks now, I will be heading to Barcelona!!! Ah I am excited. I am putting all my trust in the Lord, because I know I am not enough, and man, I know He is with me always. Thank you all for your prayers and your support. I am blessed beyond measure.

This week was not the most eventful, BUT I HAD MY FIRST BAPTISM! That´s right. Haven´t even left the MTC yet ;) hahaha jk, President and Hermana Packer´s family visited and their grand daughter was baptized here. They invited all of us to it. It was really sweet!

Oh also, I am now the music director of the CCM. Basically I am now the person that hunts down talented people to sing and play hehe. Last week we threw together a small group of sisters to sing in sacrament. we practiced for maybe 10 minutes, and never with the actual pianist, but it turned out beautiful. We sang Be Still My Soul. I am SO grateful for music, and that I can still use my talents out here. The spirit is always so so strong through music and I know it has been a huge strength and comfort to me in my life.

Last week we went to a Naval museum which was... not all that exciting haha, but then we walked around the city and went to this sword shop that was so sweet!! Spain is the greatest. I´m in love already!

Soccer here. You guys. It´s unreal. The kids at the pit are so good!! I on the other hand, am not, BUT I sure have a great time :)

In the Park...cause I always have some park stories ;) My companion, Hermana Sinclair, and I had a great day!! We talked for a long time to a lot of people in spanish and english. At the very end, we met this man from Austrailia that was studying in Brussels, and he was SO smart, holy cow. We had a very intellectual conversation with Him, that I´ve been pondering about since. He was very respectful and nice. He asked us to explain our beliefs logically. I just bore testimony of what I knew. He took a book of Mormon in English. He said he will read it. I hope he softens his heart and let God teach Him. God is the master doctor, scientist, lawyer, everything. He knows. But He can only teach us and help us if WE let Him. I learned a lot from Michael, and I hope he learned something too.

 When it all comes down to it, I know what I know because of the spirit I have felt. It´s really been a testimony builder this week. I have just felt the spirit so strong testifying, in lessons, in prayer, in the temple. GOD IS REAL. I just want everyone to feel His love (so I guess it´s a good thing I am a missionary, right? haha) I hope you all know how much God Loves YOU! He sent His Son Jesus Christ, and there is nothing more precious than that. He loves you and I love you! Turn to Him, pray to Him, He want´s to hear from you :)

Tengan una buena semana!

Os quiero!!
