Hello!!! Happy 4th of July week!!!! Even tho I will be in Spain and it's not a thing here.... pero bueno! This has been an amazing week! First week my new cute companion Hermanita Vance!!! She is so cute and just a machine! Love her so much!!! So happy to be in sSabadell!!! Well this week was a lot of trying to do missionary work without a phone which is very hard (shout out to all of the past missionaries who didn't have one, y'all are my hero's, so much respect) also because we lost our phone we lost almost all of our contacts of people we have found, which was really hard but the Lord's work continues and so we were in the streets a lot this week contacting contacting contacting trying to find more people to teach! And we found some amazing people and even had 2 miracle lessons where we sat down with people right then and taught them a lesson!!!! Also this is my companions first time being in Barcelona so for preparation day so we went to Barcelona and La Rambla and had some fun!!! Spain is crazy it's either pouring rain or your getting sun burned😂Just living the dream! I love the mission so much! It's so amazing!!! I would not trade it for anything else in the world! I feel like something I have learned on my mission is really the importance of going to church every Sunday and partaking of the sacrament which I feel like is something I never quite understood before. It is such an amazing blessing that we have, to renew our baptismal covenants every week! To take a moment to stop and ponder on what we did that week and how we are going to be better the next week. A chance to stop and think about what our Savior did for us and what he made possible. The possibility of progression. That everywhere we can become better and take another step to becoming more like him. Taking another step to the kingdom of God. We are literally created to be successful in this life. The sacrament is amazing and I have seen the biggest difference in those who take the sacrament every week faithfully and those who are missing out on it. There is an older lady in our ward that we found that can not come to church because she is too old and can't walk that well. We arranged for two brothers from the ward to come and give her the sacrament as we sat with her she began to cry and told us she had felt like even though she read the scriptures and prayed everyday there was something missing in her life and she could feel it she was so grateful. I hope we never take advantage of this amazing blessing we have and always take time for the savior... because we truly did give everything to us. Love you all so much! Eat lots of watermelon and hamburgers for me this week!!! 1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
