Feliz Pascua 💛 Have I mentioned how much I love this work, it feels like everyday week we meet the most amazing people!! Figueres is amazing and the most beautiful area ever!! We are close to the border of France so we get to see the countryside but also get to see the beach and explore the most amazing beach towns!! So yeah I'm loving it here and our friends are progressing so well!!  Jorge is AMAZING!! He has been coming to church for the past few weeks and loves it! He has been reading the Book of Mormon everyday and wants to tell us what he learns everyday! Literally Jorge is perfect so please keep praying for him!  Tania is incredible and we have been teaching her for a few weeks now! She loves church and already is super close to the members! There are so many people here who are ready to come unto Christ and hear his message!  Our little group could not be more missionary minded and they are doing everything possible to start a branch here in Figueres! Never in my...

  Hola!!!   Well I finally made it out of Catarroja and they booted me to the very northern area of the mission! My area is called Figueres and it is quite a change from Catarroja! The area is BEAUTIFUL! Endless rolling green hills in the middle of the Spain countryside!! We also have a car so that is a huge bonus but the downside is we have to drive an hour each day from Girona (where we have our piso) to Figueres! So hopefully we can find a piso in Figueres so we aren't stuck doing studies and contacto diario in the car lol  Having to say bye to the members in Catarroja was so hard! The people here have changed my life forever and they are such Christlike examples to me! I will miss them all so so much especially because I'm leaving an incredible Barrio to serve in a grupo with about 25 strong members!! They are truly amazing and I'm really excited to see this area grow!  Traveling from Valencia to Barcelona on a train ALONE with two 50 pound suitcases and a duffel...

  Hola!! Wow what a perfect week for our amiga Mary Luz!! She had her baptism this last Sunday and she is such an example to me of the goodness of Repentance and how Christ can change us for the better! Mary Luz has been through so much in her life and to see her full devotion to Christ and his Gospel was a testimony to me! I have been in Catarroja for three transfers now and I have grown to love this area with all my heart! We have seen so many miracles with friends and members! God truly has blessed me with a family here in Catarroja and I am forever grateful for Daniel, Luz, Siskatl, and Mary Luz and the examples they are in my life!  Falla season here in Catarroja is still going strong and the air quality is getting worse and worse! There are fireworks everywhere and throughout the entire night but it's been so fun! They have big art sculptures that they will light on fire during this week so that's super exciting haha! Im just embracing the Spain culture here without know...

  Hola a todos!! We just keep seeing miracles here in Catarroja so here is a small week recap!  This week Valencia is filled with Fallas which I'm not sure exactly what they are but the city is full of festivals, parades, and fireworks! It's fun and exciting and all but it makes it a bit more difficult to get the work done! Trains are traveling and people are more interested in spending time with family and friends than talking with the missionaries but it's fine my feelings are a bit hurt but its fine lol But the Fallas have not been stopping the work! We had luck with finding new people to teach this week and hopefully we can continue to find people who are interested in progressing!!  Our friend MARY LUZ is on date for March 17th! She has been taught by my compañera Hermana León and the missionaries for about three transfers now! Now that Catarroja is one giant area we have so many amazing friends to teach and Mary Luz is one of them! She is full of energy and so so ex...
