Monday: Had breakfast w/ Presidente Andy Nelson and Gaby, and then packed and headed down to Sevilla (had some delicious mostrito at the pervuian paraíso en sevilla).
Tuesday: Basically street contacted and helped other missionaries get to Sevilla. Super super weird day, we talked w/ 2 people who said that they were Jesus Christ, and one of them said that God was an astronaut in space w/ a helmet, and he also said that he was the devil (super confusing). Also got chased by someone on drugs which was super funny 🤣🤣
Wednesday: We (Elder Zúñiga, Andersen, y yo) headed up to Madrid to pick up our new comps!! I also got to see Elder Oporto (te echo de menos mijo 😢) and a TON of my good missionary friends which was so amazing. Got to see Elder Kailiponi one last time before he heads home 😢🥹
Thursday: We had the introductions to the trainers and everyone got their new comp!! I got Elder Millett!!!! He is such an amazing missionary, I love him so much. He is exactly obedient and super duper hard working. We got to hop around Madrid a bit with Elder Sircable and his new comp Elder Lesueur, taught 2 lessons and street conacted, super duper lit. Then headed back to the dorm in madrid to snooze.
Friday: Woke up, worked out, got breakfast, and headed out of the piso to get to the uber to get to the train. We were in a hurry and so we didnt pray before leaving the piso, and I will never skip praying ever again. We got to the train station, everything chill, and then got to San Fernando, where we were gonna get off the train and hop on a tram. We got off and then realized we forgot our phone, so we we went to ask how we could get it, and I saw Cindy and her boyfriend from my first area, Jerez, on the way there!!! It made me so happy to see them and it makes me so happy to be back down here. After that they told us we could go to Cadiz to go get it, so we go, a member from Cadiz helps us with all of our stuff, we get the phone, todo de chill, but then we have to recharge our train card, so we walk uphill with all of our luggage, one of the wheels broke, and then we call the STL's cause thats their area, so they come and help us, the thing to charge the card was down, so we went to a store, store was closed, finally found one to recharge it. Head back to the train station, get on the tram, phone dies, we take the wrong road to the piso (we are doing a whitewash so we dont know where we live), and so we ask a guy to pull up directions from us and he couldnt talk but he still did it for us, so after 3 broken wheels and a little detour in the beautiful land of Cadiz, we make it to our piso 💪💪 We were able to see so many miracles and the hand of God in all of our travels.
Saturday: First day in Chiclana, super lit day. Had a really good conversation w/ a street contact named Alfonso, and he is super lit. We are gonna meet w/ him again on miercoles, so please pray for him 🙏🙏🙏
Sunday: First sunday here and I love the ward so much!!! Everyone here is so kind and loving and so helpful. They are all so willing to help us in whatever way is possible. The sacrament is always the best part of every week. And also a bunch of people here speak english, which is pretty lit. This ward is so ready and prepared, so I am super excited to see how all of the children of God here grow.
Hoje: I have been busier than I have ever been in my life with a new area and my new assignments, but I know that God has been with me. When I got set apart as a missionary, I was blessed that I would be supported by God in this exact moment in my mission. I have felt that support, and I know that God is working through me, to do things that only He can do. I am so grateful to be an instrument in the Lord's hands. I know that we are instruments in the Lord's hand as we accept and do His will with a humble heart. I invite each of you to do the same; accept Him, and His will, and follow Him, and do His will. I promise you that you will feel that same sustaining power from Him that I am currently feeling as I take upon the duty to share His gospel. In the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amén.
Hit my line 🙏
Os quiero ❤️
