Holita Family!
Well this week was an interesting one! We had a super nice Zone Conference in Malaga with a bunch of other missionaries and learned tons from our AP's and lovely President Deere. I loooove having conferences in Malaga. It is such a big party!
Almería has such interesting people. All of Spain has such interesting people. Some are super nice and will do anything for us, some are creepy and weird, some are just flat out rude, and some just need to be baptized but won't accept it and end up giving up the greatest thing of their existence!
Some cool little milagros....Hna Grant and I didn't have many appointments so we were knocking this huge apt bldg and getting rejected like usual. Well, I was like, "alright, hija, choose your door and go at it!" So, she was super nervous but chose and door and guess who opened it, a super freaking gentlemen from Britain...totally speaks English. She was like, "YEAHHH! you speak English!!!" So, she lucked out and had a nice conversation with the nicest man in the world who truly wasn't interested but actually gave us the time of day to talk. Wow, why am I not serving in Britain?? lol, jk, Spain is awesome!!!
Then, I told her to do another door because that one was in English....cheater. So, she chose another door and guess what....the NICEST lady in the world answers and talked to us for like 5 minutes (longest chat ever) and we actually have a follow up "cita" with her. Incredible. Hna Grant just needs to do all the doors by herself because she chooses the best doors haha.
Another quick milagrito was when we were trying to find this less active chick's house and I totally read the address one and knocked the door which I was convinced was her door, but alas, a cute older guy opened it and ended up being the nicest guy ever. He was saying how important family was to him and we testified about the Restored Gospel and about families and he was super interested to knowing more! It was just so interesting because in the beginning he said they were all very strong Catholics and that's it, but he continued to let us testify and then he accepted to have us back. It was the strangest and coolest thing ever!!
So those are some awesome little milagritos that made this really rought week totally worth it :)
On the sad side we had one of our golden investigators drop flat out at the doorstep when we had members with us...and the members were people who gave us this investigator. She was one of their dear friends. So, it was really embarrassing and really heart wrenching to see this sweet woman just flat our tell us she didn't want to hear more. It was such a shock because we had no idea, NO idea that she would ever do that. Really rough. But, we have some potentials in the making and more work to be had!
I'm glad you all had so much fun on the lake at Owyhee!!! SO JEALOUS! I love you guys so much. Thank you for the awesome and epic emails! Loved them!!!! Que tengan una semana fantástica!! Love you all!
Love
