Lleida!!!!!

Hey Everyone!
What a week here in Lleida! Going into the week I was a little worried that it was goign to be a long week, but this week has been incredible! Elder Weiss and I had a blast together and we have already seen SO many miracles!
So basically after writing you guys last week we headed back to piso and actually looked at everything for tyhe first time. Well, I think Elder Rios might have gone home a little trunky haha. There wasnt much... In fact, there wasnt anything haha! We found an area book that hadnt been opened for about 6 months, a phone that had a ton of numbers but we had no idea who anyone was so, we just went to work! We organized the area book into street names and just startedpassing by and calling EVERYONE! Well because of it we have found some really great people!
We found a couple from the Dominican Republic. Their names are Jeffery and Jhosmary. They also have a little one year old daughter, Ashley. They are really great! They arent married, BUT they dont live together! Score! haha They talked to the missionaries about 6 months ago. We asked them why they lost contact with the missionaries and they said we dont know, they just stopped coming... We talked to them about The Book of Mormon and Baptism. We put a baptismal date with them for the 9th of November. Unfortunately they didnt come to church this week, but that only means that we have some work to do! :)
We also found a lady named Dali and her son Ruddy. They are incredible! Dali has been to church a lot and she loves it! She said that the only reason that she isnt baptized is because she is working on Sundays and cant come to church, but she wants her son to start coming to church so that he can learn the truth and learn good values in his life. We placed a baptismal date with them as well!
We also found a lot of potential investigators that said that we could come back this next week and teach them. We are excited for this week to see how all of these potential investigators play out. We are praying that we can get some people to church and hopefully we can see a baptism here in Lleida really fast!
Elder Weiss is a great companion! The thing that I have enjoyed the most so far is that we think almost the same. We both know what needs to be done and it gets done faster! I have turned to him like 20 times this week and have been like hey we need to do this and he just turns to me and says, I already did it! Its been incredible! haha We have been passing by these people but also talking to everyone! I think we have already talked to about half of Lleida in the first week here! haha Bottom line, we are having a lot of fun and we are working really hard! I couldnt be any happier!
The good news is that the piso we live in is amazing! haha Its a two floor piso that has like huge deck! Its incredible! Probably the nicest piso I have ever lived in! haha We had to clean it up a bit because Elder Rios is kinda a messy guy, but with a little bit of cleaning, its shining again! The only bummer part in that our fridge is broken right now! haha I have been eating a lot of PBJ haha! 

Well I love you guys tons! Looks like it was a fun week at home! Glad everything is going well at home! Makes me happy! Well, thats it for this week! Got another week of hard work ahead of me!
Love you Guys!
