I.Love.Conference. AH! I hope you are all floating on cloud 9 after that epic conference. I technically haven't seen all of it yet because of the crazy time difference, so don't spoil it ;) One of my favorites that I have seen so far was Uchtdorf. I love that man! He talked about how we can be closer to the Lord and pour out all of our worries to Him through prayer. He knows our weaknesses and He knows how to help. All we have to do is humble ourselves and let Him know of our worries and ask for His guidance. It is SO SIMPLE and so powerful!! I love prayer so much. It's my favorite thing to do :) ....well sometimes. When I have to pray in Spanish I get a little frustrated and don't feel like I'm actually saying anything that makes sense, BUT, He still listens and He knows the intentions of our hearts :) So, pray about every little thing in your life!
I also loved conference so much because it really helped my comp and I know that we have so much improvement to make and we need to repent and work harder. Nothing much happened this week because we didn't work hard enough. We are totally amped now though!! However, we are teaching 4 AFRICANS! haha they are crazy. Mostly all from Nigeria. I loved how conference talked a lot about Africans and here we are ready to get these guys baptized! :D They are Mike, John, Austin, and Ibu. Only one of them speaks somewhat sufficient spanish and the rest...English mixed with beeboo african language...haha Luckily we have an African in our ward that is the most engergetic person in the world that is helping us teach them. Two of them came to conference for like 8 minutes and left...due to a phone call, but I'm sure they were just like, what is this? They came at the WORST time haha I don't mean to be rude, but it was during the yellow lady's talk. I have no idea what the heck she was talking about and Mike&Austin were like, "umm, we have to go..." haha GREAT! Thank you yellow lady. I'm glad they came to hear that there was a child missing in a store but they found him by whipsering his name. Ah, I'm going to be punished for saying that but I was so devastated to see them leave before they were able to hear the prophet speak. We'll see what happens with our 4 Africans and my English teaching skills haha.
We also went to a wedding at the capilla and it was good and super weird. In Spain you have to be married legally before going to the temple. I am SO HAPPY that I don't ever have to have a wedding like it is in the movies. I love the temple :) Best place in the world, literally. Anyways, we tried to talk to all of the non members but they all fled from us and we ended up get NOTHING from it. So sad. Our only progressing investigator, Celia, should be baptized....soon...some day. We'll see.
I LOVE YOU FAMILY! Thank you for all of your prayers and love. I'm glad you were all able to watch conference :) Have a great week and share the Gospel with your friends!!! This Church is true and I love being a missionary during this amazing time.
Love,
Hermana Daly
