Tacos!!! Tacos!!!

February 5, 2018

Not much has changed in how awesome Benidorm is. We had lots of lessons this week which was awesome and met some new people which was cool. I had a fun time with Elder Cazier and Elder Child from Benidorm while we interchanged companions for a day. E_____ randomly called us this morning and said that his faith is growing so much by reading the Book of Mormon and that he's so excited for our next meeting. He's such a stud!!! That was definitely a highlight of this week. Another one is that a member of the branch made us these amazing Tacos!! Twice!!! Also I made over 50 French toast a different day.

Something super awesome that I read this week in my study of the Book of Mormon is Mormon 9:21 which says: "Behold, I say unto you that whoso believeth in Christ, doubting nothing, whatsoever he shall ask the Father in the name of Christ it shall be granted him; and this promise is unto all, even unto the ends of the earth." I know this promise is true!

Friends and Family,

We had tons of lessons and new investigators this week which is always fun!! Enrique is doing awesome! He's so prepared to be baptized on the 17th, but his wife told him (while we were there) that, if he came to church again, then she would leave him. So that was a little snag but no pasa nada. So he's decided to stop coming until he finds a way that he can come without losing his wife. The good news is that we were able to teach her! We're praying/fasting that she has a change of heart, and we're going to continue to just hit her with the spirit until she gets baptized too!!

A super crazy miracle is that we found this guy right when I got here who is a member but lives in this tiny town that is impossible to get to without a car, so he hasn't been to church in like 5 years. He's suuuppeerrr awesome, but he's impossible to contact. Last lesson we invited him to read the Book of Mormon, and when we met with him this past week he said he read it in 2 days (after saying that he didn't have that much motivation hahaha). If he can read the Book of Mormon in 2 days without motivation I'm really wondering what he can do with motivation haha.

In other news, we found this store called Iceland in the tiny town where we live, and it's this British imports store. Don't get me wrong, Spanish food is awesome, but we were a LITTLE excited when we found things that are crazy hard to find here like Dr. Pepper and Beef Jerky!

Dear Friends and Family

We've already seen so many miracles with Facebook and WhatsApp! Right when I got here, we found an awesome investigator who seemed super interested (she invited her friend to come listen to us too). Since then, she just fell off the face of the earth which we were super sad about. Somehow, yesterday I found her on Facebook and she immediately accepted our friend request and messaged us telling us she had been out of town because her grandson was born! She's really excited to meet with us when she returns in February! Another miracle was that we just randomly received a WhatsApp message from a person Elder Moreland contacted a long time ago who may be interested! E_____ doesn't believe in having technology so that hasn't changed but it's been way easier to get in contact with everyone else! I hope everyone is doing well!!
