Yep, the
ominous transfers are coming up in a week. They´re like a twisted
Christmas. You might get a present, and you might not get a present and
you might enjoy or hate one of the options. It´s about 50/50 here so
we´re waiting to see what happens!
The
bus company went on strike for a while and I got blisters which are a
wonderful combo, but it´s over. We really need to have something like a
little Smart car or a Fiat 500 to drive around. Especially since we have
pueblos to go to.
President
Jackson joined us in a lesson! We called us about two hours before and
asked us if we had a lesson that he could come to with us. We were a bit
nervous but it came out well. Although we weren´t sure if we should use
him as a missionary or a member. The lady we taught was a nice little
Columbian lady we met on the street.
Last
night while getting ready for bed you could hear when Madrid scored a
goal against Barça because the everyone in the bars nearby screamed
"GOOOOOOOLLLLLL!!!" and screamed for a minute after. We had a similar
moment! Our glorious Spanish investigator, Raquel, was baptized after
teaching her since when I got here! It´s been about 4 months and it´s
finally paid off! It feels really nice and we can relax a moment.
Although this is somewhat of a secret because her family is split, like
the rest of Spain, between being extremely Atheist or fervently
Catholic. So if you meet any Spaniards don´t mention this! If anyone´s
counting baptisms we say Spaniards count as like 10 normal ones, just so
you know. If Spain didn´t have Africans or Latinos it would be one of
the hardest missions in the world.
I
searched out the rumors and discovered real brown sugar! So I´m going
to make butterscotch brownies to celebrate with the baptism!
Our other Spanish investigator put in his papers for marraige and got a French bulldog puppy! Both are good things!
Gotta
go! Love you all! Miss you loads! Hopefully I´ll have more time and have
written more in my journal! I´m kind of failing! Hasta luego!
