Good Week!

Hey Guys!

It was a great week here in Barcelona! We are still working hard and I am just enjoying every moment! :)

We are working trying to find news and also trying to get the investigators we have into the water! I want to get wet at least one more time! haha This week was hard becasue it was semana santa here. It is funny because everyone we talk to here in the streets say that they dont believe in God or Jesus Christ and yet the whole country shuts down for a week to celebrate easter. Intersting! 

Because of easter lots of people were out of town. Edilenia went to Madrid for the whole week so we havent met with her in awhile and also she wasnt able to come to church so she wont be able to get baptized this next week... Hopefully she gets home soon so we can put a set date with her, teach her the remaining comandments and get her baptized! The good news is that we have been calling here and sharing little messages with her over the phone! She tells us she is also reading the BoM, so we think everything is still going well!

The family from Ecuador... They have fallen off the face of the earth. Kind of sad because they are ready to be baptized, but their mom just doesnt show much support. She is a member who hasnt been to church in a long time, and at first she was super excited and now she goes in her room everytime we go over... It is disappointing, but we are keeping our heads up, and we know there are more people for us that are prepared! We jsut need to find them! :) 

Other exciting news is David recieved the priesthood this week and came out and worked with us twice this week! The kid is incredible! He was talking to everyone on the street! He would just go up to them and be like hey! Do you believe in God, they would reject him and he would turn to us and be like what the heck, they dont even know who we are, what we have to offer, and what they are missing out on! It was incredible to see! Hopefully he will keep it up and maybe one day serve a mission.We are going to talk to him a little bit this week! See if we can get him pumped up a little bit! 

Well thats it! All is well! I love you all lots!
