Grinding it out!

Hey everyone!

This week was a roung one, but we have seen so many miracles! It has been incredible to see the Lord working right with us! 

This week we have been loaded with visits and teaching so many people! It has been incredible! 

Unfortunately we werent able to meet with Silvia or her sister, Mar, because everytime we set something up they had to cancel because of something... Satan is working hard, but Im not going to let him take this miracle that easy from us! haha The good news is Mar was able to come to church this week and again abslutely loved it! We just need to meet with her, teach her, baptize her! haha She is great! Silvia wasnt able to come on Sunday because she was out of town, but we are going to see her tomorrow! 

We also found a man named Maikel. he is from Guinea Bisuo? No idea how to spell that. he is the man! haha He came to church this week as well! We invited him to be baptized and right now he is on date for the 22nd

We then also found a man from Spain. His name is Javier! He is great. We still are a little unsure about his story and he either can be really good or someone iffy. haha We are tying to figure out whats going on. We had a visit with him and he explained a little about his past and how he was on drugs and had lots of problems when he was young. He told us that when he was young he met with the Elders as well but it was more of just to be their friends and not to actually find the truth. He told us that he is now drug free and that now he really wants to find the truth, and to be honest, I believe him! We invited him to be baptized and he accepted! He is on date for the 1st of March. Like I said, He is either really good or maybe still on drugs... We will find out! But hey! The gospel changes lives! 

We are also teaching another spannish man named Oscar. he is a reference from a recient convert! He is really Catholic but he shows interest. I know that if we can get him reading the Book of Mormon and comign to church, he will be a great investigator! We taught him the resturation and accepted it. He told us, What you are teaching me makes sense, but I am just not sure if it really all happened that way. Refering to the great apostasy. We expalined the importance of the Book of Mormon and he understood really well. He commited to read and pray! 

The work is going really well right now and in our spare time, we continue to knock! haha I think that is what the Lord wants us doing, so we keep doing it! haha Another amazing thing happened the other day! We found aa American door handle! It made my day! (See Pic) Its probably not that cool to all of you, but here in Spain all the door handles are in the center of the door. For the first time in almost 2 years. I saw a normal door handle. It was an amazing moment! haha

Well, Love you all!
