Friends and Family,
Big news from Benidorm!! We have been approved to use several social media apps including Facebook (which I don't think we'll actually use that much) and What'sApp!! Phone service here is super expensive, so literally no one pays for text or call service, they just download What'sApp for free, which is great for them because it’s free but it's really hard for us because it makes it next to impossible to communicate with anyone since we haven’t been able to use the app. So, we're really excited for that change!
Enrique is doing amazing! We helped him quit smoking which is a huge accomplishment for him! It's weird because most of the people we taught this week were Spaniards (usually Spaniards want nothing to do with us)!
Many people that I talk to have different opinions about God. Many wonder whether or not He is perfectly merciful or perfectly just. The Book of Mormon prophet Alma explains this topic in Alma Chapter 42: "And now, the plan of mercy could not be brought about except an atonement should be made; therefore God himself atoneth for the sins of the world, to bring about the plan of mercy, to appease the demands of justice, that God might be a perfect, just God, and a merciful God also" (Here's the whole chapter if you want to learn more: https://www.lds.org/scriptures/bofm/alma/42?lang=eng).
I love you all!
