Week 41 -- July 20, 2020
GIRONA
Hey everyone!!It's been a good week!!!
My prayers were finally answered... my new apartment does in fact have Air Conditioning 


In other exciting news, our car is brand new and super nice (it literally is self driving), this city is absolutely beautiful, annnddddd most importantly, my area is the only one in the zone of Barcelona that didn't enter quarantine again this week!!! Buttt that probably means I will soon... so we have definitely been taking advantage of being able to go outside!! We went to a really cool beach town yesterday to visit an amiga. I have officially found where I will be living after the mission, Cadequés, España!!!🤩
My companion is from Brazil, and speaks Portuguese, he's been teaching me a little bit. With my knowledge of Spanish, I can understand about 35% of Portuguese, super cool language!!
This has definitely been a week of miracles!! We set 3 baptism dates this week!! (I have previously set 3 in my whole mission) But it has truly been incredible to see the Holy Ghost testifying of what we are teaching! The truth is that we shouldn't hide from inviting others to "come and see." They might be a lot more willing than you think! God prepares people is His own time and way!
The important thing however is to not be annoying, if someone doesn't accept, do not be that member who pushes them away even farther by constantly being pushy about it. Just be a good example and make sure the invitation is always open.
We are covering two big areas right now (gotta love it when the mission is missing 60% of the missionaries) and we made a cool challenge with each ward this week, we ate giving each member to pray, fast, and meditate about who might be interested or could use the gospel in their lives right now, and then they'll send us a message! I'm really excited for this!! I testify with all my heart that member missionary work is the best missionary work!!!
I want to invite you all to do the same!!! I know the majority of you live in Utah, and therefore it may be hard, but as a representative of Jesus Christ I promise you that if you work with God, you will be able to find someone in your life who could benefit from God's gospel! My invitation for you all is you have 15 days please meditate, pray, fast, do what you need to do, and think of at least one person that could benefit meeting with the missionaries, (of course talk with them first), and when you have this person in mind, talk to the missionaries about meeting with them! I promise that as you do this, your relationship with God will personally grow and you will develop a greater love for those around you!! I would love to hear how this goes for you! Love you guys!(:
