Well we had transfers and Èlder Liptrott left
to serve in Madrid and I've gained Èlder Jones. Elder Jones is from Arizona and
has only 5 months on the mission. But he speaks the language very well because his
mom is actually from Spain. We've been working hard since day one and found someone
to teach and he seems ready to hear the gospel and our branch president has two families for
us to teach in the coming weeks. I love being a missionary and I love teaching
about how we can live with an eternal peace in this world we live in.
I'm not going to lie I've been sick for
the last three days with a bad crooping cough. But luckily we have a member family
who we've designated as the mom and dad of the missionaries here in Ourense. The
mom heard me coughing one day and bought me medicine the next day. So, no need
to worry about me getting sick with this family here. This simple act made me
love this family more than I already did. When we do things out of love we'll
see the charity that Moroni and Paul teach us. So I want you this week to act
on prompting that you'll receive this week to show a simple act of love.
The
city of Ourense is now in full swing with festival now. Absolutely
no one in the street and not a single store is open. The only things
open here are bars and smoke shops, But we enjoy it still.

I
was thinking of a talk that I've read this week. It is Broken Vessel, by Èlder
Holland. This talk hit me and told me that in moments of difficulty there is
always a way to happiness still.
