April 2,2018 Week # 36 Who is the Angel in Revelations with his hand on the grill and a hand on the pan -Algeciras , Malaga Spain Mission

Well it was a great week in all truth. A ton of work but were definitely finding the specks of gold. 

We are finding a lot of inactive members by miracles, and also a few people that have been prepared to hear the word. 

We worked the soup kitchen again which was super fun, we made some bread with a member one morning and then Sunday we made cinnamon rolls! A lot of whipping it the kitchen!

Plus we taught quite a bit this week too, still  a lot of base work but the progress will soon show. We by miracle called a future we had gotten a couple weeks ago to set an appointment and he told us over the phone he had already read a little in the Book of Mormon and really was worried about his salvation. We met with him and the dude is a stud! He Was in a super bad car accident 30 years ago, died came back, was in a coma, relearned to walk, talk, and take care of himself, and is now realizing that God has a purpose for him! So cool!

If you watched conference, which I hope you did (and if you didn't you should feel bad and do it haha), I hope you received the answers to your questions and learned a little bit from our extremely wise and inspired leaders, and more importantly from the spirit! I beg you to please put forth some effort to really make an honest attempt to improve yourself, live gospel principles, and grow closer to God. As I have done that I have found myself happier, truly happier, than I ever have been even though I am thousands of miles from family friends and comforts. 

Remember to always keep your focus true happiness and the things that will matter in a THOUSAND YEARS. I love all of you. Say your prayers, be thankful, be humble, and listen to General Conference! 


Now that Battys BadA buns are in Spain so are his Cinnamon Rolls hehe

What's up what's up its your favorite door to door salesman out  here doing the Lords work! (If you never saw the Snapchat series I'm sorry you missed out) This week was killer, we straight grinded. We've started a lot of new things lately and there are about to be some changes, were just laying that solid foundation right now. This week we taught a little, our investigator Jenny is practically a member we're just waiting till the week after General Conference to have the baptism. Our boy Juan is doing good, after his contact with missionaries in 92 he hasn't had much more but little by little were watching the spirit change his heart and pique his interest. If Anyone knows of some guy with the last name of Sampson thats from Alpine and is in his 40s, give him my numb.... uh email. Haha it would be cool to reconnect him and Juan after 25 years. Everyone is still pretty basic and we've started to work with new people so more updates coming soon!  This...

Good Morning U.S.A.!!  Well what can I say, last week was Christmas and we had a good call with the fam. Now were looking down the barrel of 2019.  It's been a couple great weeks here in Badajoz, there is a ton of potential and we have a couple of friends that are progressing well and will soon have baptismal dates. The branch is great, I've eaten lunch in our flat a total of 4 times since I've gotten here haha. And apart from that they are all incredible when it comes to the work, and we had a really inspiring class from President Vallecio on the changes in the church and how it's going to help the members and the missionary work!  If you can't tell I am excited on a whole other level to get the work going!  This past week we spent Christmas in Cáceres with the other Elders and a matrimony the Hubbs. It was great and we ate pretty similar to a normal Christmas which was fantastic! Then we came back and put some work in. In one day our di...

The Week of the Elect Week #9

Image
This week was absolutely nuts! So some back story, every since I've gotten here in the mission I've told my companion that we need to find the Lord's "elect"  D&C 33:6 And even so will I gather mine elect from the four quarters of the earth, even as many as will believe in me, and hearken unto my voice.  D&C 29:7 And ye are called to bring to pass the gathering of mine elect; for mine elect hear my voice and harden not their hearts; Because me being fresh out of the mtc I was gung-ho on taking care of business. My companion gets hung up on every single person, so I constantly reminded that we need to find those that are ready to except the gospel. This week our hard works came to fruition. We finally were able to meet and teach a member referral Christina. So last week when she showed up for her appointment her and the member were in an all out like screaming match so that was super scary but it all calmed down. We had already set a baptismal date wi...
