The terrific trio of Malaga 3!

 

GOOOOOOOD MORNING FAMILY!!

Hello family. So, I´M A MOM!! Sort of. Last week at the end of pday, President called us and let us know that our dynamic duo would soon become a terrific trio (my words, not his). Hermana Corral is from Cartagena and is assigned ot the Mexico Puebla mission, but is waiting for her visa and so she reported straight to our mission and we are training her until her visa comes and she can go to the Mexico MTC. So she hasn´t even gone to the MTC yet. I keep forgetting that she just barely reported on Wednesday! CRAZY! And we have no clue how long she will be staying or anything, just as soon as she gets word that her visa comes, she goes to Madrid then flies out to Mexico! So she got dropped off with us Wednesday evening!  SHE´S GREAT! She always has the perfect thing to say in lessons, she´s so nice and she´s BEAUTIFUL!

 

So I don´t remember if I´ve told yall about Ana and Andrés and his kids yet? Ana is a member and her son Andrés and his 2 sons live with her but they aren´t members. She´s a sweet lady and raised 12 great kids. Andrés, her son, is incredible. He really wants to change his life and accepted a fecha for the 30th of this month! He´s had a rough life and I am certain he will find (and is currently finding) the peace he needs in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

I went to Granada yesterday! We had stake conference so we rode a bus for 2 hours to Granada, sat for 2 hours then got back in the bus for another 2 hours to go home. It was a long morning, but the conference was so good! It was ALL about missionary work and what we can all do together. Fun fact, this time a year ago, our stake had 26 missionaries, now there are 52 missionaries serving in the Granada stake! Cool, huh? Hahah the bus was half filled with just missionaries... But it was fun and a cool experience!

Well this week was pretty good, REALLY fast and I cannot believe its already Monday again! But I would rather be busy and have it go fast than have nothing to do and the week drag by! I´m tired, a little under the weather, but still STOKED to be here! Hey good news, ITS FINALLY COOLING DOWN!!!! I got to wear sweaters all week and I even busted out my boots on Wednesday! Its weird cause during the middle of the day it still gets hot, but the mornings and evenings are FREEZING because of the humidity. Oh yeah and HAPPY HALLOWEEEEEEEN!! We didn´t dress up. We also forgot to buy sweets. And people partied on our street all night so we didn´t really get sleep. But oh well!

Hey I love you all and hope you have a great week!!!!

No baptism this week and most likely not another one next week but stayed tuned for the week after! Hahaha we really are being blessed here, actually when President called to assign us Hermana Corral, he noted how much success we´ve been seeing! We really have clicked and gotten into our groove and keep getting better each day. Really its so exciting how much the Lord is accelerating the work right now! EVERYONE is getting involved!

Technically my birthday is in the next transfer, but transfer date is the 27th of November. And it takes about a week for packages just so you know.

 

Love you all and miss you all!! Anyways have a great week!!
