And the new companion is.....HERMANA KNOWLES!! She is really cool. She is from Boise and went to BYU-Hawaii for a year, but she´s going to byu after. I really like her. She is like ridiculously beautiful (everybody kee`ps calling her "La Mormona Guapa"). She is still learning Spanish, but is picking it up so fast. I really am enjoying having her- we have GREAT goals, work hard and have so much fun! And its fun having hermana andrus here with us. </div>

Do you remember S.. from back when I got here? The guy who left jail and was really repentant, had a baptismal date and dropped us? HE´S BACK!! We met with him a few times this week and he is ready for the gospel right now. He accepted another baptismal date for november 22nd and is really progressing. He even told his friends from his old church that he is really interested in learning about the mormon church and finding hte truth. I love moments like this.</div>

I´ve been having chili cravings, but it LITERALLY doesn´t exist here. My food list: sushi, ivars, pasta, steak and potatos, thai food, gnocchi soup. Uhmm next week i´ll bring my list with me so you can get the full effect. I really want tacos too.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
We´re now going through the new investigators deciding who is progressing and who is not and we are shifting our focus around on some people and off of others. Its great. I really have a great feeling about this transfer! My comp and I work great together and are just going hard on our area!! I honestly don´t feel like I go home in just 6 weeks. But I want to keep that feeling so I just keep working hard and focusing until the end. This is such a blessing training right now! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You better be grateful I already committed to going back to school in january because if not I would have asked to extend a transfer. I love my companion. Knowing already that we will only have this transfer together makes me so sad and seeing that she has her whole mission ahead of her makes me want to continue and do it with her too. So count your blessings that I can´t extend because I seriously considered it when I met the new missionaries! </div>

This week i´ve been studying the war chapters in Alma and I´ve been comparing it a lot with the war with satan. What a big difference it makes when we are all unitied from the inside out and prepared, because the adversary cannot even enter into our territory. BUT the second we begin to let up and think we are alright, he strikes and its much easier to maintain your land than to win it back, so we should always be prepared!! </div>
<div>
My message for you this week is one of my favorite scriptures righ tnow. D6C 128:15. Our ancestors are waiting for us and they need us and we need them. We cannot be saved alone nor can they. We all need to connect the links between the generations adn do our family histroy work and do their work in the temple. I know that the day that we choose to follow Christ, our ancestors began to REJOICE in teh spirit world knowing they became one step closer to salvation.</div>
<div>
i love you all.</div>

So this week is FINALLY transfers! Okay that sounds like I´ve been waiting for it. It's just weird cause I knew 2 weeks ago what was happening with me so its been an odd wait. I´m bummed that Hermana Hurtado is leaving though:( We love each other. She is going to SEVILLA! So jealous... BUT the plot has thickened with me... Remember my redheaded hija, Hermana Andrus? Well she has foot problems and has to spend some time down so she is coming to live with me and my new hija and she will study and sleep with us but then during proselyting time, she´ll go to the office and be the first ever "Office Sister."<div>

This week was finding week again for the Misión de España Málaga. Our goal this week: 888 new investigators in one week. Each companionship needed to find 9 new investigators in one week. Our week started out great- we met person after person after person. THEN we hit a ROUGH patch on Wednesday and didn´t find ANYBODY all day wednesday and thursday. I actually kinda broke a little on Wednesday. But Friday we woke up and did a GREAT weekly planning and decided that it was a new day. And in 1 day we found SEVEN NEW INVESTIGATORS!! By the end of the week we as a companionship had found 14 news. It was truly a week of miracles. We worked so hard and saw incredible things happen and now we have a LARGE pool of investigators to teach which will be great for my new hija who comes on Tuesday!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of our news is C... He was found in a member´s home last week and we called and met with him for the first time on Tuesday. C.. is from Colombia and works as a waiter at a restaurant. He doesn´t have a lot of time, but is super interested. We read with him the promise in the Book of Mormon and it really interested him and he read 3 Nephi 11 like 3 times! He said he wanted to continue, but really wanted to understand what we left him and he even related it to his life and had been pondering it for a few days. He said after he read, he tried to remember the 3 things we invited him to do, but couldn´t find the promise again in the book, so we re-explained it and he committed to pray about the book! He is so sincere and I can see he really wants to know if its true. His friend asked me about him on Sunday and he was so happy and they actually had been talking about the book too! Its great cause his member friend is less active and is coming back to church, so its great for him too to be able to support his friend! I love this work!</div>

I ate feijoada this week! Did you ever eat that on your mission? We ate it with a Portuguese member who just moved from the elders´ area to ours (poor elders... ;) ) and has already invited us 3 times over to eat at her house just this week! She said its a little different than Brazilian feijoada but still the same principle. It was surprisingly good! And we have a brazilian member who also lives right next to us who is going to prepare us a Brazilian feast soon:) </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
An.. and Se.. are still waiting for a date. The juzgado takes forever cause everybody goes there cause its free. Teh ayuntamiento costs like 100€ but they can do it in like a week. an anonymous donor from the ward has offered to help them with that so they can get married faster, but idk if they´ll accept it! They are looking up about that this week. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
My scripture for you is Alma 37:44. This way really is so easy. All we have to do is like the children of Israel in the desert when they were plagued with the snakes and just had to look upon the cane and live. All we have to do is look to Christ and follow 5 simple steps and live. But we aren´t even capable of that sometimes! I get frustrated with people here because we give them simple answers to their problems: read, pray and come to church and the Lord will tell you this is true and help you. But they won't! It frustrates me, but also helps me see how I want the rest of my life to be as well. I love this work. I love this gospel. </div>

LOVE YOU SO MUCH FAMBAM!! HAve a great week!!</div>

Ra... SUCH A ROLLERCOASTER! On Tuesday, he was GLOWING. Seriously, he had this incredible spirit about him all weekend and we were excitedly planning his baptism. Wednesday was excellent and he found out that he was going to be able to stay in the kiosk during the winter too! BUT then there were some family trials. He cried all day Thursday and Friday because of what family members said and did and when we went over on Saturday it was like back at square 1 with him. The glow was EXTINGUISHED. We had planned to go to his house for the first time and had a member with us who is preparing to go on her mission in December so we could go in his car and everything, but when we got their, he said he didn´t feel like talking religion and that we could just go to a restaurant and talk. So we went to a restaurant and the first thing he did was look us in the eyes and order a beer! The spirit was NOT there. The longer we spent their talking with him, the oddest thing happened to me. I had this odd heat spread from my stomach up to my ears and the more time we spent, the less I could hear until we reached a point when I couldn´t hear ANYTHING they were saying, it was just a loud noise in my ears. I cut him off as he was explaining to us what happened with his family and I said, "I cannot hear a THING any of you are saying. We have to leave. Now." So they all got up real quick (I guess I said it kinda strongly...) and we went to the church. As soon as we entered into the church, the ringing in my ears left and the spirit FLOODED into all of us. We had a great lesson with him and helped him see that during hard times is the WORST time to forsake God. He was really repentant and committed to coming to church and to prepare to be baptized next weekend. I am so grateful that we got to bring him to teh church because it changed EVERYTHING! We called him before church to make sure he was coming and he goes, "Hermanas, where are you! I´ve been here for 30 minutes already!" HE CAME TO CHURCH EARLY TO MAKE SURE HE WOULD COME! </div>
We went with S.. and An.. to the townhall and witnessed their papers so they will get a date on Wednesday! We had a perfect lesson with them afterwards at the mission home with the Deeres. I can´t wait to be an awesome member present like them someday! It was perfect and they helped them so much. I love this little couple. And the YM are all obsessed with S..! Haha they are all asking to come over and hang out with them! Its hilarious. Almost every week they have somebody over. Its because they are the only young couple in the ward and S.. is super fun. I am so happy. He cracks me up cause he goes, "I just know taht the second I have my rights as a member, I am going to get a calling in YMs." And its so true. Ha I love that couple!<br /></div>
So the other day I was asking myself, "Really, how many people from how many different countries have I taught?" So I started writing it down. I HAVE TAUGHT PEOPLE FROM 42 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES DURING MY MISSION!! What the heck! I don´t think you could say that anywhere else in the world but in Spain. I love this multiculture madness here.<br /><br />RANDOM THINGS</div>

Funny you should talk about continuing at home. I´ve begun my list of people with whom I need to share the gospel with when I get back. I think those few weeks I´m at home will be some busy ones. The problem is I DON´T KNOW HOW TO BE A MEMBER MISSIONARY! It will be odd taking the backseat in lessons and backing up what the missionaries teach. But I still have a LOT of time to be the missionary still! </div>
<div>
Hmm we teach this persian guy that works at a bar by our house and in his downtime, we go teach him inside while his clients all get drunk outside (bars are different here than in the states. It's like more of a restaurant or a cafe) and he always gives us hot chocolate or herbal tea or something and so we were sitting inside by the counter talking to him yesterday when this DRUNK woman staggers in to pay her bill. She starts speaking in really broken Spanish and I asked where she was from and she told me she´s scottish, so we started talking in english. She ordered another drink and points at it, looks at me and goes, "Oh shoot. This is my 3rd. Tomorrow, just hot chocolate and a chocolate cake. I´m going to regret this later." And she proceeded to tell me the story of her life. She was so drunk but like really rational and was like, "You know what, my daughter lives in Ireland with her mormon aunt and uncle. Here is my number. Lets talk next week. I need God in my life." </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I look forward to being able to talk to people whenever I want (like friends and fam) but I´m going to miss being so involved in this work. I love seeing people change and seeing the joy that comes from them accepting the gospel. Even being a member missionary, its not the same. </div>
</div>
</div>
My scripture for you is Alma 31:26-35,38. I need to improve my personal prayers. This prayer by Alma is incredible. He sincerely prays for the people who he was there to serve and he is really just TALKING to his Father in heaven. I included verse 38 too because this really hit me this week, they were exceedingly blessed during their ministry among the zoramites and this is the reason we are given why: "Now this was according to the prayer of Alma; and this because he prayed in faith." Prayer has SO much power. As we pray in faith, miracles really do happen! </div>
I love you all so much. I want you all to know how much I love this work. I loved Elder Bednar´s talk from Conference because it perfectly explained why I am here. Sometimes members tell us, "Oh thats so nice you came out here to experience the world and to learn." And I get a little annoyed when they say that and try to say (with as much love as I can put into my voice) "I am not here to experience life. I am not here to learn Spanish. I am not here to enjoy Europe. I am here to invite others to come unto Christ. I am here to help in the work of salvation. I came out that I might save but one soul. I am here for the eternal salvation of my brothers and sisters." I testify that this is the work of salvation, this is not my work, but His and He is here to help us in it. I am so grateful to be here serving Him as a full-time missionary and SO grateful He has permitted me to be but a small part in the salvation of His children. I love this work. I love you all!<br /><br /><a href="https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2014/10/come-and-see?lang=eng" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0072c6;">https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2014/10/come-and-see?lang=eng</span></a><br /></div>

First of all... on Saturday I received a phone call from President Deere and... I´M GOING TO TRAIN... again. I´m going to start the training of a new hermana for my last transfer. Woah. Well this means NO being trunky for me cause you can´t be trunky with a newbie, you have to work hard and be nice. Haha President is a smart man. </div>
We called Ra.. on Wednesday and he goes, "Hermanas, I´ve been thinking and I´m going to get baptized with you." WHAT?!?! Then he said he made a promise to God that his priorities from now on will be God, family, church and then work. HE IS INCREDIBLE!! The ward LOVED him yesterday and they are great. He has a fecha for this Saturday, so here´s for hoping that all goes well and as planned. He gave us this HUGE bag of gifts- he gave each of us these nice pens that everybody uses here and a bunch of stuff from his kiosk. He loves us and we love him! Hopefully next week I´ll be sending you teh pictures of the baptism!! He´s so cute, he goes "If I had to choose between winning the lottery and meeting you two, I would pick you both any day. I am so grateful you entered my life and brought me the gospel!" GOLDEN! He´s going to make a great member... SOON!<br /></div>
S.. and An.. got their papers this week!! They will find out on Wednesday the date of the wedding. i´m praying it will be SOON!! Pray for that too!<br /></div>
<div>
We went to the English branch yesterday and hearing church is English again sounded so odd to me. I actually didn´t like it. I don´t want to leave Spain! </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
We met this Nigerian man last week and met with him for the first time on Saturday and he had read the introduction of the BoM already before our lesson to prepare and he had a bunch of questions. when I invited him to come to church, he said no. Haha I testified and promised him blessings if he came and he still said no. we were getting ready to leave after the spanish ward and then I saw Uc.. inside with teh English branch! We ran back inside and sat with him during sacrament meeting. He liked it, but wanted to know why we don´t do worship and praise sessions. I was like, "Its really reverent here." He´s cool. We have another cita with him this week. here we go! </div>
<div>
<br />Something that Neil Maxwell said reminds me of what your mission president said, "the only thing we have to give to God is our desires." The only thing that He has not given us that we can give back to Him is our hearts and our desires. I really liked that. </div>
I went to Malaga on intercambios this week and young couples from my ward when I served there a year ago all have babies now. Its odd seeing changes even during my mission! </div>

I love you so much. Have excellent weeks! Live long and prosper.<br /></div>

Conference was the best! We got to go to the Deere´s and had a conference brunch all us from Fuen on Sunday morning and we watched the Saturday afternoon session. I felt like I was in the states! We even ate CINNAMON ROLLS! Best day ever. I learned so much and I am excited to watch the Sunday afternoon session later this week (we have to watch it during studies...)<br /></div>
We met this INCREDIBLE couple this week. C.. is from Uruguay and L.. is from Ukrania and they are so humble and so prepared. She is 7th day adventist, but hasn´t gone to her church in awhile and when we contacted C.. in the street and he talked to her about us, she felt she needed to talk to us. We met at the church on Saturday and gave them a tour and they loved it. They felt the Spirit so strong. They are seriously golden. Just ONE problem. Go ahead. Guess it. THEY AREN´T MARRIED. Grrr.. Our ward keeps calling us the matrimoniadas (matchmakers, like the wedding girls) because we keep finding perfect people who just need to get married. Everybody is asking me on the wedding process here now! Hahaha I have fame here I guess! They are so humble and have an incredible knowledge of the Bible. I can already see them as members participating in Sunday School classes!<br /></div>
<div>
Ra.. is progressing like no other right now! He says he believes that the Book of Mormon is true. We had a really great lesson this week when we explained baptism and read about Christ´s baptism and he goes, "This is my next step, isn´t it?" And we were all, "YUP!" And so he said that if he feels peace at conference on Sunday that he will get baptized on October 18th. He called us a few days later and said that he made a promise to God that he will come to church! Then when we talked to him after Conference, he goes, "That was it?? I want more! It was too fast!" And he was so impressed by President Monson. AND HE FELT PEACE!! He´s getting baptized on October 18th:) I love that little old man and he loves us. He is like my Spanish grandpa. I can´t wait for his baptism!!</div>

So we do english class at 7 on Thursdays when we teach English and share a message. Then the elders come at 8 and members and whoever else wants to come and we have a short message by us or the elders and a game and a snack. Its a chill FHE but its a really great activity that most of the areas in our mission do cause it allows investigators and less actives to come to an activity that is chill but still spiritual and gets them involved with members. Something I´ve learned on my mission is that good activities don´t have to be huge. Just that there is SOMETHING for people to be doing. But of course, the big activities are the ones you always remember, but small things keep people involved and happy! We don´t have church on conference weekend, but its actually better for people cause its later in the day (6pm) and so they ALL come and bring friends:) </div>
<div>
<br />My favorite speakers were Elder Kienghat (sp?) and his talk about spirit self esteem and also Elder Robbins and his question "Which way do you face?" I loved conference. We watched the women´s conference during priesthood but I didn´t have the option of watching in English since I was the only one which made me sad, but I´ll print and read President Uchtdorf´s talk in my language later. I LOVE my mission language, but the Spirit speaks to me better in English, ya know?</div>
<div>
I COUNTED HOW MANY TIMES THEY QUOTED HELAMAN 5:12 TOO! They also quoted it int eh Women´s conference. Also they talked a LOT about how the 2nd coming is coming FAST and we need to prepare... now!<br /><br />It's funny remembering my moments before making covenants with God or doing big things and it puts me in the place of my investigators. Often times we ARE prepared to do things like this and in the end it will GREATLY benefit us, but for some reason we are hestitant to just take the step and DO it! Investigators feel the same way. But once we´ve done it, we are like, "duh, why didn´t i do this sooner?" I laugh when I remember when I went through the temple. I received my call at the end of January and mom and dad made plans to come to UT just a week later to do a session for me to receive my endowments. When they made those plans, I was like, "oh my gosh. There is NO way I will be ready to do this in a month!" But mom and dad were both so supportive and helped me to prepare. I went to temple prep, I talked to my bishop and stake president and I seriously fasted and prayed and I found that when the date in february came to go to the temple that i WAS ready! </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
My thought for you comes from the talk by thtat guy from Uruguay who spoke in Spanish. I loved the question he presented, "What would you do if you were to have a personal interview with the Savior in 1 minute?" It reminded me of soemthing that I studied this week as I read the Book of Mormon, Alma 5:27, "Could ye say, if ye were called to die at this time, within yourselves, that ye have been sufficiently humble? That your garments have been cleansed and made white through the blood of Christ, who will come to redeem his people from their sins?" We should always be ready. </div>
</div>
</div>
I love you all dearly and hope you have an excellent week! <br /></div>

I decided this week the top three things I am trunky for: 1) AFFECTION 2) iPhone. I keep having dreams that I get home and I use the same phone I have here on the mission and I throw fits until you buy me an iPhone. its weird. I guess I´m superficial. 3) Dad´s cooking. oh. I forget the REAL number one. I´ll call it 0) THE TEMPLE. Just so you can get a little peek into my head right now:)<div>

On Monday, we witnessed the most beautiful thing ever. S.. and An.. invited us, the R.. and Je.. (a joven that comes with us all the time) to their house for FHE and S.. said he had a special lesson for all of us to hear. He opened up reading a scripture about marriage and then told us a little bit about his and An..´s story. Then he GOT DOWN ON ONE KNEE AND PROPOSED TO ANDREA!! It was so awesome. WE were all screaming and crying and she was more surprised than all of us. It was beautiful. I feel honored to have been thought of as one of the people that had to be there that night. I love this family. They should be getting the papers from Argentina TODAY and then all they have to do is ask for an appointment and THEY ARE GETTING MARRIED!! I am stoked. Then TO THE WATER!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Since we started doing a missionary FHE every Thursday last week, we saw some real growth this week! We had 9 people including the missionaries last week (ahhaahha) but this week we had like 20!! And they LOVED it, we played zip bong (the game where you can´t show your teeth) and they were all dying. Its cool seeing how excited people are getting about coming to church AND Ra.. came! We had talked to him earlier this week and he had told us that he was going to come if it rained on sunday and the Lord made it RAIN and he still didn´t come. Turns out he sold NOTHING during the 3 hours of church and said that clearly the Lord wanted him at church. We said, "you said it, not us!" it was great. He BETTER come to church this sunday or else... </div>

Okay one cool insight from my studies this morning: I was reading Alma 32 and LOVING this parable of the seed. But as I read v.35-36 it reminded me of another scripture I love a lot, 2 Nephi 31:19. Both basically say that after exercising faith, repenting and acting on this by being baptized that "behold I say unto you nay" it is not all! And then both chapters finish off talking about being patient and diligent to the end and WE WILL PRODUCE GOOD FRUIT and rejoice in the celestial kingdom. It was cool drawing parallels between two of my favorite chapteres in the Book of Mormon. </div>
<div>
I had my last zone conference on Friday (they only do them every other transfer) and it was really good though- both President and Hermana Deere gave their talks in English which was different. but they said that they both felt they needed to. For me, it was a GREAT experience. I understand Spanish perfectly, but something about your own language just touches you. There are a lot of new missionaries right now so thats why they did it. </div>

Wait what peruvian food is de moda right now? Sweet cause i am learning how to cook it like a maniac right now! one day I cook and the next day she does and we teach each other our foods. She´s pretty obsessed with my spaghetti carbonara and i´m obsessed with EVERYTHING SHE MAKES! We eat rice at every meal. I feel like i´m finally serving in south america. </div>
<div>
My scripture for you this week is Mosiah 2:20-22. Even if we spent all of our time, talents, energy and EVERYTHING in serving and praising the Lord, we would not pay the SMALLEST part of what He has given us. WE really are nothing in compared to Him. We can do nothing in comparison to what He has done. But despite all that He could ask us to do for Him, the only thing He asks us for is our OBEDIENCE. In this perspective, I am willing to do anything for Him, I am completely willing to obey knowing that He has given me all that I have and am. I love this gospel. I love my Savior. I testify taht this is HIS work and that as we do it with Him, we will never fail. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love you all so very much. I hope you enjoy conference as much as I am going to and that you learn SO much! LOVE YOU!!</div>

THEY ARE GETTING MARRIED SO SOON!! They called his mom while we were there and we all cried when she said that she was getting the papers this week and sending them out tomorrow. It is so ridiculously exciting! The ward is already planning their reception:) I AM SO HAPPY.<br /><br />

R.., the man from the kiosk, is beginning to progress again! He loves us, he´s like our cute little old grandpa here in Fuen. He said he can´t put the book of Mormon down and he received an answer that its true! The only thing holding him back right now is that he works every Sunday. He said the day it rains, he´ll come to church. Well we prayed all week and it rained on Sunday... and he didn´t come:( I´m actually pretty bummed. But he is really feeling the excitement and learning so much right now. ITs cool to see him progress again. Just gotta make it rain next Sunday too I guess!<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
Since I invited you all to share something from your studies this week with me, I thought I would share something as well. I have the goal to finish the Book of Mormon before December and as I am going through it, my love for this book grows so much. I love how often the first authors of the book, Nephi, Jacob and Enos all speak about how it is for a wise purpose and that they are writing it so that we may not forget that they believed in Christ, that they followed Him and they taught their children of Him. It is so incredible that the whole book was written for their brothers, teh Lamanites, and while they are writing this great work for them out of love so that one day they may come to the truth, the lamanites persecute and try to kill the nephites! That is some pure love of Christ right there! I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God, written for our days and that by living the principles we find in it, we can be worthy to return and live with God again!</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
RANDOM THINGS (gleanings from her paragraphs to individual family members)<br /><br />I definitely agree with what you said about teaching them to recognize the spirit is the most important thing they can learn. We´ve been studying that a lot this week in training and its so true. To know that what we are teaching is true, all they have to do is read some of the Book of Mormon, and pray to know if its true. The hard part is so often they wait for an experience like Joseph Smith, when many times is just a feeling. ITs the hardest thing getting people to recognize their answers, but when they do, thats when conversion happen. There is a phrase that I love in Lesson 1 of PMG, "As we begin to feel that what we are learning is true, we will desire to know all that we can about the Restoration." And its so true!! </div>
<br />You should read "the Continuous Atonement" by Brad Wilcox. His daughter served in our mission and gifted it to all her comps and I took her place in Dos Hermanas when she finished her mission, so I read it while I was there. ITs really good! </div>
<div>
<br />Don´t be too sure that being on my feet for 13 hours is normal. I actually prefer sitting because it means we are TEACHING! The weeks when my tan begins to fade are my favorite weeks cause it means that we were inside most of the day teaching. But yeah I do also have days when we just WALK AND WALK AND WALK and nobody loves us. Haha then we go to members and ask referrals and they give us water and let us use their bathroom. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
My favorite part of being a missionary is that EVERYTHING that I do has a purpose: Invite others to come unto Christ. My life is simple because all that I do connects to this. Every moment of my day is planned and I have an entire manual, the scriptures and the Lord telling me what I should be doing. Being a missionary is actually easy in that aspect because you don´t have to second-guess. This is the salvation of His children, so the Lord makes things pretty clear on what to do! </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I miss Dad´s cooking, just in general. HE cooks really well (PORK ROAST AND MASHED POTATOES). I will most miss the culture and the history here. The US doesn´t have as much of that. Actually we don´t really have history like they have it here in Europe.</div>
</div>
</div>
I love you all so much and hope you have excellent weeks! <br /><br />Hermana Folsom</div>

Yesterday at church, I saw a girl and thought, "Wow, she must have just gone to the bathroom and taken her bun out. Pity, it was really cute." Then I realized SHE WORE THE BUN TO CHURCH LAST SUNDAY!! This week went by so fast I am confusing the weeks at church. <br />
<div>
Cool story of the week: On Thursdays, we offer service at a soup kitchen until lunchtime and always leave STARVING and as we were walking home, this REALLY GOOD bakery that is on the walk home came to my mind. BUT we were planning on taking the bus home and the bakery is beyond the bus stop, so I was like, "well if nobody is at the bus stop it means we missed the bus so we will keep walking and go by the bakery on the way home. SO if nobody is at the bus stop, we can go to the bakery, but if there are people there, we´ll wait for the bus and just not eat donuts." When we got to the bus stop, there were no people to be found, so we kept walking. I said nothing about the bakery to my companion, but I really could NOT get it out of my head! I was thinking about how ridiculous I am and how food driven I am and almost didn´t suggest going to the bakery, but right as we passed it, my feet took me into it. Seriously. I know you are all laughing right now but it was so odd. Here I am, standing at the counter, feeling like a total fatty whose feet lead her to chocolatey goodness when the lady working at the counter looks at my nametag, looks at my face and with shock in her eyes goes, "Where is that church?? I have been looking for it since I moved here to Fuengirola. I´m from Mexico and I´m baptized and everything!" THE LORD LED MY STOMACH TO THIS LESS ACTIVE MEMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Weirdest revelation I have ever received in my life. We got her number and are meeting with her now! We just laughed afterwards when we realized what happened!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sad news: N.. did NOT give permission for C.. to be baptized this Saturday:( She wants to do it all together, but she´s not ready at all to be baptized and recognizes it but she wants C.. to wait for her, even though C.. just wants to do it NOW. She cried during the lesson when her mom said no. I know the day she comes to church, she will be jumping up and down begging for us to baptize C.., but she´s pretty depressed and refuses to go to church until she feels better. I don´t know what to do to help this woman because she really is clinically depressed, but has no money to see a doctor or anything. BUT neither she nor C.. can progress until she gets better.</div>
<div>
Happy news: S.. and A.. sent for the papers. THEY SENT FOR THE PAPERS AND NOW THE NEXT STEP IS ASKING FOR AN APPOINTMENT AT TOWNHALL AND THEY ARE GETTING MARRIED. I am so happy.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
We did a musical number in church yesterday, "Savior, Redeemer of my soul" and it was BEAUTIFUL. One of the elders in our ward was first chair violinist in all his orchestras and the other is an incredible tenor, so it was the perfect combination and I loved being able to accompany them. I love music.</div>
<div>
I have a sad story for you. We watched "only a stonecutter" with a less active this week and there is a scene where the son is reunited with his family for the first time in years and as they hugged, i started to cry. It was too close to home. This week you would be happy to know we were fed everyday but Saturday and Sunday! The members are taking good care of us and really making sure I don´t look skinny when I get home!! hahaha but it's okay cause I LOVE south american cooking. So much rice.</div>
<div>
A story that happened at church actually happened saturday at church. a 70 came to Malaga to give a fireside for missionaries and investigators and we thought it started at 630, so all of us from fuen got there at 630. Turns out it started at 730, BUT right as we got there, there was a woman standing outside the church and she went up to us and asked if she could go in. We said of course and went in a gave her a tour of the church. She said that she has passed by the church before, but it was all closed up but that she wanted to go in and she had been standing outside and was about to leave when we pulled up and she felt she needed to talk to us. As we showed her the baptismal font, she said that she is looking for a church to be baptized in and that she wants to do it like Jesus Christ. We invited her to baptism and she said yes!! She lives in the area of the Assistants to President, but man this woman is incredible. She stayed for the fireside and loved it. If we hadn´t gotten the time wrong, she would have left and we might not have ever met her.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My funny story for the week is that we were walking to a lesson and were turning the corner around a building when a man on a bicicycle coming from the other direction was doing the same thing and SLAMMED on his brakes right before plowing me down. As he stops, he looks up saying sorry and then really looks at us and goes, "WOW!! QUE GUAPASSSSSSSSSSSS (How good looking)!! Una morena (brown) y una blanquita (white)!!" it was hilarious and all we could do was just laugh and walk away. One really nice thing about spain is that you never have to worry about your self image because all the men in the street will remind you that you look good. I have just become accustomed to being called guapa (good looking) or preciosa (precious) or bonita (pretty). Its really nice. </div>

Hello beautiful family, friends and assorted loved ones. How is everybody doing?? Missing me terribly, right?? :)<div>
</div>
<div>
This week was crazy. So.Much.Rejection. But at the same time, so many really cool miracles and so many great things that have happened as well! </div>
<div>
First of all, we teach a 12 year old girl, C... She´s from Argentina and we met her in a really cool way. when I was with Hermana Lionetti still, we were looking up a former investigator and when he wasn´t home, we both felt really strongly that we needed to knock the doors on that floor, taht there was somebody there who needed us. So we knocked and nobody else was home until we got to the last door. We knocked and a woman, Noelia, opened. She is from Argentina and told us taht she has never really had any interest in religion but that something about us itnerests her. So she let us come back and it was a perfect first lesson- the woman even cried with us and told us that she wants to come to know Christ and that she wants to read the Book of Mormon. We came back the next time and her daughter, Candela, was there. We gifted her a copy of the Book of Mormon and the girl can´t get enough! she loves reading it and she loves praying. She told us there was something she ahd to tell us that she felt embarrassed saying in front of her mom, so we came over and chatted while her mom was at work and she told us that she prayed, received an answer and taht she knows that the Book of Mormon is true and that she wants to get baptized. She has a fecha for the 20th of September and she came to church on Sunday and LOVED it. There are 2 other girls her age and they all were laughing and acting like besties by the end. ITS SO COOL!! . I am so excited for C..!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We met the biggest Paraguayan I´ve met my entire mission this week. This guy isn´t just big, he´s HUGE. And SO STINKING HUMBLE. We taught him on Tuesday and it was perfect. WE told him we wanted to give him something and when he saw the Book of Mormon, he got all excited and said, "I promise i am going to read this. I want to change my life. I want to learn more and do this." He even committed to baptism on teh 27th and gave us referrals!! He´s incredible. Then we got a text on Wednesday saying that he can´t continue, so we called and he told us that there are rthings in his life he can´t change but he knows they are wrong and so he can´t continue. We pleaded with him to rethink the decision and to just pray about it. He told us that he read the book and felt SO GOOD but that he´s made this decision. It was HEARTBREAKING. I just keep praying for Heavenly Father to soften his large heart and for him to call and say that he wants us to come back and that he´s ready to change his life.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We had interviews with President this week and mine was actually pretty long! We talked about everything and anything and he actually told me I need to start planning for after the mission. It was so weird, but he said he prefers for me to do it cause its better to come home to a plan and something set. Also he told me its very likely I will stay in Fuengirola for the rest of my mission. SO WEIRD. It was a great interview, but kinda trunky, talking about my post mission plans.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
Things are definitely looking bright for S.. and A.. They asked for how long Hermana Hurtado and I will be together so they can figure out the date for the wedding with the ayuntamiento (uhmm townhall?) and so they know they have to do this thing before the end of October, so they are feeling some good healthy pressure:) </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Our prime finding time is the same, 5-10pm, cause people are at home, or coming home from work and whatnto. I would say I do the majority of finding around 7 or 8. With our members we do many different things! Its depended on the area and to what degree the members are involved, cause I´ve had some areas where it was like pulling teeth getting member involvement so we have to get creative, but here they all freely share! One thing that I love to do with members is share a miracle I have seen with my companion that week so they can see that there REALLY IS work in their area. I think a lot of times, members get into their heads that there is no work in their ward, or that they don´t baptize, but its all about attitude, so I like to open their vision and let them see that you can baptize and help people everywhere! </div>
<div>
The senior couple in the office fed us yesterday and she made beef roast and mashed potatoes and I was SO HAPPY- a true Sunday dinner for the first time in over a year! </div>
<div>
My companion wants to learn English, but she is still learning. She understands a lot, but panicks when she has to speak and no matter how long I spend forcing her to practice lessons in English, when we get to it, she just stares at me and says, "NO PUEDO" but she totally can. She testified BEAUTIFULLY the other day in English using words I haven´t even taught her! I wrote her a list of things she can testify of, and the last one on the list was "I know that what my companion says is true." Thats become her favorite:) I keep telling her that now she undesrtands how the rest of us feel when we come to Spain! </div>

Yesterday we were talking to a recent convert who is fighting with his parents and his mom found his Book of Mormon and made him throw it away. I began to cry when I heard that, which surprised me, but as I thought about it, I realized why it affected me so much. The Book of Mormon is our sword. WE are at WAR with satan and it pained me to hear that Se.. was going into teh battle without his sword, unarmed and unprotected. I felt such sorrow and I realized how important the Book of Mormon is. We aer reading it as a mission again and my goal is to finish it before the end of my mission. Spend time everyday in the Book of Mormon, you come closer to God by reading the Book of Mormon than any other book.</div>

Holy moly the weeks are just going by faster and faster. I can´t believe its SEPTEMBER already. <br /><div>
Updates on S.. and A.. They continue being our miracle family. S.. earned the money this weekend that they need to send for his papers and as soon as they have those (it can take anywhere from 1 week to 3 months to come) they can GET MARRIED!!!! A.. told me the other day that she "wants to get baptized already!" Haha they are so great. A.. cannot get enough of the Church. She started indexing and doing her family history ON HER OWN! She has seen almost every video on <a href="http://mormon.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0072c6;">mormon.org</span></a> and she is sharing the gospel as well! They opened up their home for us to use to invite investigators in and they are inviting their friends to learn more. I am seriously obsessed with them. I have never met nor had the privilege to teach somebody like this before in my entire mission. They are incredible. They refer to us as "tita folsom y tita hurtado" to the baby even:)</div>
<div>
I lost my hija. On Friday we did intercambios and the hermana who I was with got on the train to go to Malaga and Hermana Hurtado was supposed to get off that same train that just came from Malaga. BUT as the train pulled in, everybody got off, everybody got on, and the train left. And Hermana Hurtado was nowhere to be found. Mind you, I´m alone in a train station now. PANICKING. I called the office missionaries, the SHE´s, EVERYBODY and it turns out she had gotten off on the wrong stop, but didn´t know our phone number, but had a passalong card from being in Malaga, so she went to a locoturio nearby and called those hermanas and they called me. So I called the elders and they accompanied me to find her. Probably the most stressful hour of my mission! Haha but the good news is I HAVE MY HIJA AGAIN! I now know what it feels like to lose a child... oh man. I´m keeping a close eye on this one from now on! haha naw she felt so bad for causing so much trouble, so I couldn´t even be mad!<br /><br />RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I´m feeling LOADS better now, since like Wednesday I´ve been doing well. </div>
<div>
We have a lot of investigators that are really great right now, we have 3 different investigators working towards baptismal dates in September- A.., L.. and C.. (a 12 year old investigator from Argentina). And we are finding still! We are seeing a lot of success right now as we get to know and work better with the members. I have never received so many referrals before in my mission. Its so cool. One of the members commented, saying that she has had some friends prepared as referrals for awhile, but has been waitign for the right missionaries to come and she feels like we are the two that are meant to teach them!. The members love missionary work.</div>

What you wrote about doign family history reminded me of this talk from general conference: <a href="https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2014/04/live-true-to-the-faith?lang=eng" target="_blank"><span style="color: #0072c6;">https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2014/04/live-true-to-the-faith?lang=eng</span></a> I´ve become so obsessed with family history. The apostles have called my generation to do it and when I get home, thats my next mission! </div>
<div>
What you said about the art gallery is incredible. Thats how I felt in Madrid when I went to the art museum and saw "Las meninas" and other pieces of art I have only seen pictures of! Sometimes I forget how cool it is that I live in Spain. I´ve noticed throughout my mission that I have phases where we teach people from different regions of the world. Cubans, colombians and ecuatorians, bolivians, spaniards, and right now its paraguay, argentina and uruguay. We are finding so many people from there! Its fun learnign about different cultures! </div>
<div>
I was just thinking the other day too about how lucky I´ve been with my companions. I´ve gotten along with all of them.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
The funniest story this week was probably Larry. The funniest part is that teaching is in English. There is something so odd about teaching in my own tongue. I really can´t do it. And when I feel impressed to say something, my impressions come in Spanish and I have to translate!! But he said he believes that Joseph Smith was a prophet because he´s seen visions of angels too and so he knows that Joseph Smith is "for real." I love africans.</div>
<div>
AHha the first few days of the mission are killer, but now I could run a marathon. I decided I am in prime condition right now to be a tourist or go to disneyland cause i can walk all day and be fine as long as you keep me fed! haha </div>
<div>
I love you all so much and hope you have an excellent week! LOVE YOU!!<br /><br />Hermana FOlsom<div id="pixelContainerId" style="display: none;">

Dearest darlingest family of mine,<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week went flying by, I cannot believe its already monday again. We did so much this week and saw really great miracles!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To start out, here is the update on S.. and A... They are perfect. Period. Haha we saw them almost everyday this week and they are progressing SO WELL! They fed us on Wednesday, came to English class Thursday, we had an FHE with them at our ward mission leader´s house Friday, Saturday came to a baptism and Sunday church. A.. is golden. She has read through all of the pamphlets and is marking them up like crazy, writing her baptismal date everywhere and even downloading the LDS app without anybody telling her about it! She has such a hunger for more knowledge about the Church, its so great. AND its really helping S.. because she asks him all sorts of questions and makes him pray with her and they are going through the Book Of Mormon together discussing it and learning together. The best thing ever was at the FHE on Friday, there was another investigator there too and she had questions about the Plan of Salvation, and A.. explained to her PERFECTLY the 3 kingdoms of glory and answered so many questions. She´s incredible. We keep joking with S.. that she´ll be the next YW president in our ward! She is so prepared and I know that the Lord has some really special things prepared for this family. They are preparing for marriage and S.. is preparing to be worthy of the priesthood he holds. I really can´t rave enough about them! I am so grateful for this opportunity to teach them. I feel like everything that went wrong in Dos Hermanas is going right here and we are seeing incredible things happening!</div>
<div>

Haha as you can probably tell from the subject line, I´m sick. I woke up yesterday feeling awful but we were teaching the class for RS with Hermana Deere and I couldn´t let her down and we had 5 different investigators coming to church, so I said a prayer and told Heavenly Father I was going to church sí o sí, put on my skirt, threw my hair up and walked cautiously to church. Our RS is the first hour here and so right before, I asked the Elders and President to give me a blessing and I felt fine during the whole lesson, still hurting a little but manageable to teach. Then, right as Gospel Principles was starting, I started to feel really bad again and actually ran out during the middle cause I felt like I was going to vomit. Hermana Deere ran after me and took me and my companion home. I had been telling myself all morning not to vomit and I didn´t, but as we were walking into our piso, I suddenly realized I was free to be sick. And boy was I sick. I spent all day yesterday vomitting and sleeping, but now I´m feeling almost all better. We´re gonna take it slow today but not vomit so far! Haha the nice thing about being in Fuen is that all day I had people calling to check up on me and see how I was doing! It was an interesting Sunday to say the least...</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
We talked to S.. Monday and we had the most sacred experience with them, all four of us crying and really it felt like the celestial room in their little apartment as we talked about the ways he can bless his family with the priesthood and they made the goal to not just be baptized and reactivated, but to go to the temple and be sealed. IT was the right push that they needed that started the BIG progression! Really great miracle. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Before, here in Spain, only the Catholic and Evangelist churches had the authority to marry people, but about 3 weeks ago, a law was passed giving the authority to baptize to the LDS and Jehovah´s witness churches! We are just waiting for it to be finalized and then bishops can marry people! We are praying and fasting that this law be finalized quickly so that bishop could marry S.. and A.., but if not, the only thing in their way is the money as well. But they are working on getting everythign in order and the ward loves them and will help to figure things out!</div>
<div>
My week was good, busy and great! I am studying a lot of everything. Uhmm right now I am drawing a complete blank as to specific things but yesterday was the day of the Restoration. I read a Liahona about pioneer heritage and then we watched the long version of the Restoration and then Legacy (since all I could do was lay in bed and run to the bathroom) and it really impacted me all that our ancestors and the first members went through so that I can be here, in Spain, preaching the gospel. Seeing all the sacrifices they went through for the Gospel makes you realize just how important this message is. Its interesting to see that even though they were establishing Zion, it didn´t mean that they were free from adversity. In our lives, at the times when we are trying most hard to do what is right is when Satan tries the hardest as well to knock us off of our faith.</div>
<div>
<br />I had a panic the other day. Most of my companions go home this transfer. 3 down and 2 more to go. It's weird. </div>
<div>
The closest thing we get to chick flicks here is the romance between Emma and Joseph Smith or in the Testaments, that little kiss... </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Alma 5:27 and 28. I like that this asks if we are sufficiently humble and then asks if our garments have been cleansed and made white through the blood of Christ. A sign of our humility is if we have repented and been made clean because if we aren´t humble, we aren´t repentant! I love you bug and hope you feel better and have a great week!!</div>
<div>
<br />LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! Have a greaet week!</div>

S.., V.., A.., me and Hermana Hurtado. LOVE THEM</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div>
This week was GREAT. I love my hija. I love this ward. I love this work. We are seeing so many miracles together its so great, and we get along way too well, we spend ALL DAY laughing our faces off and working our feet off. Its so great.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
First of all the miracles are LOS PERFECTOS. A.. and S.., that young couple from last Sunday that we met! We refer to them as LOS PERFECTOS because that is what they are- perfect. Everything we teach, they just get it and love it! S.. is getting to testify to his girlfriend all about the truth and how he knows this is true. When we taught them the Plan of Salvation, he told us about this activity they did when he was young in Argentina where they are given a stamp card and go around doing activities and for each activity they get a stamp. At the end of the night, they all were taken into the chapel where the chairs were set up in the 3 kingdoms and depending on what was stamped on their cards, they were "judged" and separated into the 3 kingdoms. In the end, of all his family, only his mom was sitting in the celestial kingdom and the rest fo the family was dispersed between teh terrestrial and telestial and he said that sight is somethign that has always stuck with him. It really got both of them and they both were like, "We want ALL of us to be there in the celestial kingdom together." Then they asked what the have to do to accomplish that. We talked about marriage and baptism and the gospel of Jesus Christ and A.. accepted a baptismal date for the 13th of September and they are saving up to go the townhall and get married!! Please pray for this little family! They came to church yesterday and the ward is obsessed with them! Our ward mission leader invited them over right then and there for FHE at his house later this week. They are our miracles. I really see S.. coming back and baptizing A.. himself VERY VERY SOON!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On Friday, as we were walking up the hill to our ward mission leader´s house for correlacion meeting, my sandal broke and I had to walk with only one shoe the rest of the way. After the meeting, since we had planned and set appointments for the rest of hte night, we didn´t have time to run back to our piso and change shoes, so we stopped by a dollar store and bought super glue and cheapo flip flops which I wore for the rest of the night. On our way from one cita to the other, my flip flops broke! We were going to meet a member to go to a lesson together and she was so worried about me! haha she even offered me the shoes off of her own feet! I refused, claro, and just walked very carefully with my broken flip flops. When the investigator we were visiting wasn´t home, and none of our backup plans were either, Fanny (the member who mind you is 72 and HILARIOUS) asked if we had anything set for the rest of the night. We had plans but they weren´t really firm so we went over to her house for dinner and she gave me a pair of slippers to wear. It was like a little refuge after the nuts day and my shoe drama, going into her little apartment and eating a tortilla de patata and talking about her conversion. This sister is probably my favorite member here! </div>
<div>
<br />
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
Things are going really great, as you can probably tell from what I said above! S.. IS a priesthood holder, he´s actually a seminary graduate and was ACTIVE until he turned 18 and he is perfect for A.. because he is always answerign her questions and sharing experiences he had growing up in the Church. I can tell he honestly wants to raise his family in the Church, but he had forgotten that until we came along cause now he talks like a mormon again! I like that, talking about how his priesthood can bless his family, I think we will talk about that with him! He can totally bless his daughter!! We had 4 different eating appointments this week which is a LOT! and it's true, eating with members helps you get to know them and earn their trust easier. </div>
<div>
Fuen is great! Last week we played mini golf with the elders and this week we are hitting up the mall (don´t worry, I´m just window shopping, but my comp wants to hit up the rebajas) and then we are going to eat KFC!! </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I actually DID get to play the piano cause we were waiting for people to show up for english class and so while we waited the 15 minutes we felt obliged to wait until leaving, I played the piano and it was GLORIOUS. We had a lot of investigators at church yesterday, A.. came and M.. (the 12 year old from paraguay) and D.. (an eternagator who recently decided to take us seriously as missionaries, she´s come to church every week for 14 years but can´t be baptized cuase she lives with her fiance). </div>
<div>
I had the biggest craving for them yesterday during sacrament meeting. I wrote in my notes yesterday I WANT MEATBALLS. When I am really trunky, I write lists of the foods I´m going to eat when I get home. At the top of it is EL TOREADOR always. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
My scripture for you this week is alma 26:12. Its a classice but so true. WE are NOTHING in comparison to God and alone we can´t do anything. But wiht God, nothing is impossible. He can make miracles happen, he can make it rain and send fish in the middle of hte Sahara desert. He can change the heart of an inactive Argentinian to remind him of his covenants. He can make a 20 year old punk kid into a servant of Him. I know that this is His work and with Him at our sides, we can do anything. </div>
<div>
LOVE YOU ALL!! doN´T miss me too bad:) LOVE YOU!</div>

So another week has gone by and another transfer has begun. I dropped off one companion at the train station Tuesday afternoon and then went to the mission home for the grand matching ceremony. I feel like we are at Hogwarts with the sorting hat. All the trainers sit on one side of the room and the trainees on the other side and you sit there all anxious, staring at each other wondering which one you will get until President calls the name of a trainee and then their trainer and where they will be going and you take the picture. Its really a lot like Hogwarts. BUT my hija is awesome. Her name is Hermana Hurtado and she is from Chimbote, Peru, but has lived in Spain for the past 4 years. She´s super sassy and we get along WAY too well. Also she´s really awesome, she already knows like everything. We just got right to work and haven´t stopped since! Also she is teaching me to cook REALLY GOOD peruvian food so expect some of that when I come home! <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
INCREDIBLE miracle last night. A few nights ago, the elders had contacted a young couple with a brand new baby (17 days old) on the street and turns out that the father is an inactive member! They live in our area, so they gave us their info and we went over last night. S.. is 32 and from Argentina and his family joined the Church when he was 6, but 14 years ago, he went inactive and his family has been fighting and praying for him to come back all this time. A.. is 20 and from northern Spain and is not a member, but is super sweet and their baby, V.. is SO SMALL and beautiful. They let us in right away and were so welcoming and we got to know them and invited to start doing family prayers and they held hands and were so excited to get started. Missionaries had visited them before a few years ago, but they weren´t ready then. Now, with the birth of their daughter, they are both in the place ready to hear the gospel cause they are seeing the importance of it for their little family. It was such an incredible lesson and S.. testified to us that he knows that this is the true Church, he just fell away because he didn´t like the hypocracy of members, but he feels dumb now for going inactive because of that. Really, it was A MIRACLE!! Pray for them and their little family that he can come back and baptize his little wife!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Funny story: Our ward mission leader gave a talk yesterday in church and talked about how a way that the ward can help with misisonary work is by inviting us over to eat (us missionaries hardly ever eat with members in this ward) and at the end of sacrament meeting, EVERYBODY swarmed us inviting us over to eat! Haha we have an eating cita almost everyday this week!!<br />
<br />
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In our mission, we don´t use a lot of the same missionary terms as other missions since so many missionaries don´t speak English. We call them hijos and hijas (cause they are our children in the mission!) We are teaching a lot of people still, but since we have been finding a lot of new investigators lately, right now we are going through and figuring out if they are really going to progress or not, so we are dropping a lot right now as well, making room for miracles to happen and putting our faith in the Lord.<br />
<br />
My companion knows everybody and their dog here in Fuen! Haha its so funny having companions from within Spain because since the Church is so small here still, they all have connections (even worse within the young adults too!) <br />
We want to start workign with the yw more and get them excited about missionary work since right now all of us in our ward are teaching ym and yw aged investigators and they aren´t really receptive to new people and its weird seeing the 14 year olds and all of a sudden I´m like, woah. When did I grow up?? Not that long ago but at the same time it is! <br />
Thank you for that scripture. I needed it. I´ve been getting kinda frustrated lately. I feel like since I left Puerto that I have been doing everything I can and working hard and being the most effective I can be, but that I´m still not seeing the results. I miss hearing somebody turn to me and say, "I prayed and I know its true. I want to follow this." I just feel like I´m running in circles going nowhere right now. BUT I know that new missionaries bring MIRACLES and I have a great feeling about this time I´m going to have with Hermana Hurtado. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Bahaha all of you guys assumed that I would get an american! Nope, I´m NOT the one with all the language skills. Its the other way around actually. But my Spanish has skyrocketed in just these past 5 days! I´ve had a few companions that struggled with Spanish, but what we lack in language the Lord makes up in Spirit. I love missions. <br />
</div>
<div>
My favorite part about the mission is how my testimony has grown and being able to use it to help others´ grow as well. If I could change anything, I would go back to the beginning and be more teachable and pay more attention to my trainer. Haha I still really wanna go to the Alhambra. ITs my dream. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One thing taht I have learned each time I´ve trained is that in the end, they won´t remember much of what you taught them, but they will remember how you made them feel. So just love them and love them and love them. It's the same with investigators. The things we teach them are completely new and weird, but what catches their attention is the Spirit and how they feel.<br />
<br />
Well we were talking to a less active man about ways he can keep busy to quit smoking so he can go to the temple in October (thats his goal) and so we talked about doing family history and then also missionary work. As we were teaching him, a promise from Neil L Andersen came to my head. "As you pray to know with whom to share the gospel, names and faces will come to your mind of people who you know who are prepared to hear the gospel." I don´t want to get to the day of judgement and have somebody who has accepted the gospel in the spirit kingdom who I knew in this life come up to me and say, "but you had it and you didn´t share it with me! I could have enjoyed these blessings earlier!" As members of the Church, as we pray about who to share the gospel with, we have the right to receive revelation to be guided to those that we know who are ready to hear the gospel. Every member has this right! Pray about with whom you can share the gospel and then SHARE IT! Have a great week! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love you all so much and I hope you have excellent weeks. Os quiero!</div>

Aka the week of madness.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hey fam! This week was nuts. We have had 5 normal weeks and all at once this week, EVERYTHING happened! First of all, the news. So I´m training (you already knew that. I won´t know who the heck my hija is until tomorrow.. AHH!!) and then Hermana Lionetti is going to Elche 1! Its sad we only got a transfer together, but we are both excited for our future opportunities and she goes to byu, so this isn´t the end! Haha</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So Monday I had my first intercambio for the first time in 6 weeks (it was a nice, long break! haha) and it was PERFECT. But really, perfect. We saw everybody we had planned to see and taught awesome lessons and got to spend time with each other and she saw recent converts, less actives, progressing investigators and news. I have never had a perfect day like that before in my mission. SUCCESS.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Tuesday I went to the mission home and we had trainers training. I´ve been so not even thinking about the fact that I´m actually training so it was odd being there and all of the other trainers were sharing their concerns and thoughts upon finding out they were training. I felt kinda dumb cause i was just like, well I´m excited to be here! I guess also cause I was the only one there who had trained before, so they didn´t know what to expect. On that note, apparently I´m old now! Everybody keeps asking me how soon I go home! ITs dumb. I´m NOT going home. And thats that.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Wednesday was the day of adversity. We had to testify various times of the truth of the gospel to people who were flat out telling us that the Church is a lie and that what we do as missionaries is despicable "leading people away into darkness" but the interesting thing was that during one of those times, I had the distinct thought, "Even if I were the ONLY person in the entire world who knew of the truthfulness of the gospel, I would still know with the same certainty that it is true and I would live it and share it just as I do now." It was a cool experience having the Spirit testify to me that I DO know that this is true and it really strengthened my testimony. Funny how what those people were telling us had a backwards effect on me than what they intended! THIS CHURCH IS TRUE!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We met this family from Senegal a few weeks ago and we have been teaching them with this older member from our ward, F.., who speaks French (one of the languages spoken in Senegal, so she can help a lot). And they are super cool. They are 3 brothers: A.., L.. and B... A.. is evangelist and married, L.. is divorced and was muslim (he speaks better english than I do, he married a british woman who now lives there with their 10 year old son) and B.. is young and doesn´t speak very much spanish nor english nor french (he speaks wolof). But the first time we went over, A.. was super argumentative and wanted to bible bash, but we stayed calm and then when we went over Friday, he was a completely different person. He had had a complete change of heart and asked if we could give him a Book of Mormon and he said he wants to try the promise. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
O.. got dropped after he refused to read the book of mormon but only antimormon literature he found online (i got sassy and told him to call us when he decides to listen to the truth... oops.), but R.. is doing really well! We keep finding so many people through him! I think the majority of our new investigators lately have been found through him!<br />

As we have been doing family history as a mission, i keep thinking about how blessed I am as well to come from families where the gospel really is the center of our lives. On my mission I have met so many people, companions, investigators, members, less actives, etc.who don´t have the same blessing I do to come from a family that loves me and even more, loves the Lord. I read "True to the Faith" teh talk Elder Walker gave at conference this week and I loved what he said about this: "<span style="background-color: #f9f6ed; color: #2f393a; font-family: "Lucida Grande","Lucida Sans Unicode","Lucida Sans",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The more connected we feel to our righteous forefathers, the more likely we are to make wise and righteous choices." I love you momma! I hope you have a great week! And tell Uncle David congrats from me! LOVE YOU!!</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
They are really making a focus in our mission about learning about our family history and as I´m doing mine, I´m like, "I KNOW NOTHIGN ABOUT THESE PEOPLE!!" but we are really blessed to have excellent grandparents like grandpa who go and put a lot onto family search. I´ve learned a lot from what he´s written on there! I really like our elders, we all have at least a year in the mission right now so we all know what its like to work together and it's good!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My scripture is Ezekiel 34:6,8 the Lord entrusts us with His sheep. They are His. So how are we going to take care fo them? We need to adapt an attitude of service and charity and take care of ALL his sheep!!</div>
<div>

i love you all so much! have a graet week! LOVE YOU!!!!</div>

Funny story this week, we are walking home for the night, its 10pm and we are pretty close to our piso and President calls. I talked to him and then he asked to talk to my companion and right as I hand the phone to her, these two kids, a girl around 14 years old and a boy around 12 come up to us and just start SCREAMING in our faces and yelling crude things to us in Spanish and I hear Hermana Lionetti start laughing and tell President, "No, no, we´re fine. There are just two kids shouting at us. I don´t understand what they are saying, but I think my comp does. She´s laughing. No, really, President, we are okay. We are almost home." Haha of course, the one time we are shouted at and people say rude things like that to us, we were on the phone with PRESIDENT. Really i was just cracking up because of the ridiculousness of the situation which i think made them angrier and the kids eventually stormed off. It was odd.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
WELL but now you are probably wondering why we were talking to President. I´m training! I´m going to pick up the new hermana next week... Weird but I´m excited to train like for real this time. And I´m excited to help a new missionary learn and grow. It will be fun! I´m bummed about only getting a transfer with Hermana Lionetti (especially cause this transfer FLEW by) but I´m excited for this new experience.</div>
<div>

Last week we met this man, O... He lives in our apartment complex in the next building over and he´s from Morrocco and he´s muslim, but not practicing and doesn´t even believe in his religion. We went over on Tuesday morning to give him a Book of Mormon in Arabic and we could not get ANY women to come with us. BUT there is a little park in the middle of all the buildings in our complex so we were thinking we could go down and teach him on a bench. We get to his door and he would NOT have it to meet us downstairs. He was offended we rejected his hospitality. He kept saying, "Venga, chicas!" His apartment is really open and you can see right into it from the park, so he thought it was ridiculous having to leave but we were firm and after FIFTEEN MINUTES of trying to persuade him, he finally came down to the park with us. BUT he´s awesome. HE told us he´s not very creyente, but that he wants to have faith like ours. He wants to read the BoM and know if its true. SO COOL! WE just gotta find women to come with us now!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Update on R.., our awesome 61 year old investigator: He´s incredible. He bought us little lawn chairs so we don´t have to perch on the flower bed anymore and he´s so sincere. And we are meeting so many people through him. We just started teaching his son this week- THAT man is so repentant too. After 4 years in prison, he´s ready to change and take control of his life. They are such humble men and really love our visits. SO GREAT! They won´t accept baptismal dates yet cause they don´t feel ready, but they both want to come to church! WOO!!!</div>
<div>
<br />RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
Hey cool news from our mission, we are getting electronic devices! IPADS! We are going to start using them in October or November... right in time for me to leave. </div>
<div>
Things are pickign up a LOT here- we are finding like crazy and we have to the goal to reach the mission standards of excellence this week... WE CAN DO IT! </div>
<div>
The work goes really well! We are meeting a bunch of incredible people right now that I can really see progressing and the members are getting excited about the work, suddenly they are remembering us missionaries are still here! </div>
<div>
Cool story: we met this man, P.., on the street on Thursday and he´s like not all there. Really slow of speech but he´s really nice and I asked if he´d ever seen the capilla here in fuen and he said yes. Then i said, "Pues, acércate este domingo a las 10" (So come on by on Sunday at 10) and he was like, well maybe. So we are sitting in gospel principles class and i see a man walk by the window and i was like, "uhh hermana... is that paco??" we ran out of that class right quick and grabbed him! Haha he came on his own on his way to the beach! But after all teh meetings I asked how he liked it and he said it "changed him" and that he needed to go home and think about soem things. We have an appointment with him today... cool but random, right?</div>
<div>
There are cockroaches in my piso, i´ll send some pics. ITs gross. but did you know that if you just flip them over, they can´t get back over, so evenutally they just die lying on their backs? So all over you just see cockroaches flipped over. Then you sweep them up adn throw them away. its a tragic death but a much cleaner solution than squishing them. </div>
<div>
My scripture for you this week is 2 ne 22:2, I am obsessed with this scripture. I love the language in it and i love that when we trust in Christ and have faith in Him, we really have NO reason to fear, He is watching out for us and in the end, everything will be alright.</div>
<div>
I love you all so much, I hope you have an excellent week and are staying cool!</div>

Outside the castle in Fuengirola</div>
<br />
This was an interesting week, it was one of those typical missionary weeks, full of HUGE ups and LOW downs. But in the end, I think the week went well<br />
<blockquote>
<div>
<div dir="ltr">
<div>
<div>
<div>
<div>
First of all, one HUGE blessing of being here in Fuengirola is having Hermana Deere so close cause Wednesday night right as we were coming in for the night, she called and asked if she could come pick us up. My first thought was, "Crap. What did we do?!" Then suddenly as we were walking outside our piso, I realized it was probably news about Grammie. It was good to hear it in person from somebody and have some time to let it sink it. Its hard not being able to be there with everybody during this time, but I am so grateful for being here as a missionary, having the Spirit SO close and being so focused on the plan of salvation that there was NO question about where Grammie is right now and that she is finally reunited with Grampy. I felt such comfort Wednesday night knowing that she is finally back with him and happy. I´ve been praying for everybody all week.</div>
</div>
Some really cool miracles have been going down here too this week. We had met this man, R.., once when we met his friend, S.. (another investigator) at his little food stand and we decided this week to stop by and teach R... Oh my gosh this man is incredible. After only meeting with him twice I am convinced he is going to make an incredible member. I already have his baptism planned... Haha we sit in the back of his kiosco (food stand) on folding chairs and talk about the gospel. He is 61 and is such a humble, sincere man. His wife left him about 2 years ago and since then he´s battled (and conquered) cancer, had heart surgery, and his son has fallen into drugs. Despite all of this, the man believes and has such a personal relationship with Heavenly Father. His prayers are so beautiful and the spirit is SO STRONG when we teach him. He is a miracle.<br /><br />RANDOM THINGS</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</blockquote>
Church yesterday was good, we have the goal as a district to have 20 investigators in church in total and so we were all working hard towards that last week (we had 8... kinda 20 right?? hahaha) but this week we are going to get it! Some cool successes we are seeing is that since I got here, we have been focusing on talking to everybody in the street in between appointments and ALWAYS asking referrals from EVERYBODY and for so long, all we have gotten is rejection but THIS WAS THE WEEK. We met some incredible people on our way to appointments that are going to become investigators this week and the Lord is really putting people in our path. Also yesterday in RS, I was sitting by a member and she leans over and asks me how was the week and if I taught any lessons. I told her yes, but we are always looking for more people to teach. She stops for a second and then gave me FOUR NAMES she wants us to look up! We are finally seeing the benefits of our hard work trying to find. I am loving working here in Fuen. Such a cool spirit about the work here. <br />
<br />It really is such a different experience having the gospel in your life. I have met many people on my mission who have lost loved ones and it completely devastates them, but all week I have had such a peaceful feeling knowing exactly where Grammie is and that she is back with Grampy. I am so grateful for the perspective that the gospel brings! <br />
<br />
My favorite part of this week was our lesson with R.. yesterday. He was waiting for us all day and had bought us little juices cause he knew we were coming. He´s so great. <br />
<br />
I´ve been in a few thunder storms but they were all in Dos (winters here are rainy) and yeah Europe KNOWS their hot chocolate. ITs good here too! They drink it all the time. <br />
<br />I had the oddest craving this week to watch Even Stevens or Lizzie McGuire. Sometimes I miss tv. But then I watch the Restoration video. Or the District. #missionaryprobs. Funny story, we brought J.. to a lesson with A.., our investigator from Pakistan, and she speaks Spanglish (neither her spanish nor her english are very good, she speaks Urdu) and we wanted to share with her Amos 3:7 and talk about prophets and it took us TEN STRAIGHT MINUTES to find Amos in her bible. It was all characters and we would say things in Spanish and repeat them in English. WHY MUST I KEEP FINDING PEOPLE TO TEACH WITH WHOM I DON´T SHARE A COMMON LANGUAGE. I´ve gotten really good at teaching simply though! I wish you could see those lessons; "Dios te ama. God loves you. God. loves. you. Ama. Dios. Love. You understand?" "God ama mundo. God es bueno." Okay yup, good enough. Good news is we ahve the Spirit. <br />
<br />
I was reading the talks from the Women´s broadcast in april and i really liked this and thought of you and all the sissies "To be sisters implies that there is an <b>unbreakable bond</b> between us. Sisters take care of each other, watch out for each other, comfort each other and are there for each other through thick and thin." -Bonnie L. Oscarson.<br />
<br />
Matthew 10:39 "He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it." I was pretty bummed Wednesday night that I was way out here in Spain in a new area where I don´t have a whole lot of connections still and I was just wishing I could be there with you guys but then every Thursday we do service in a soup kitchen for the homeless and by the time our 2 hours there were over, I forgot any sadness I was feeling before. I really forgot myself helping these people and talking to them. It was a testimony to me of the power of selfless service and this scripture! <br />

Okay so I don´t really feel like its mine, but we had a baptism yesterday! B.. is the 11 year old son of a less active family that we all visit (and by we all I really mean we ALL! All of the missionaries here in Fuen visit them!) and the parents have been coming back and he decided he really wanted to be baptized, so this week his father went and met with the bishop, got things cleared up and was able to baptize his son yesterday after church! It was a beautiful service and he was REALLY prepared for this. Group baptism I guess? <br />
<div>
Cool miracle this week, we have a lot of youth and young adults that LOVE to come out with us and so we had brought Er.., a less active 17 year old who just moved here from Paraguay 3 months ago, to a cita and he decided to come around with us the rest of the night so we were looking up some names on our ward list that neither of us know when we went to the home of AB. The door opens and a teenage boy about 13 years old answers the door and goes, "Er..?!" Turns out that they play futbol together and know each other from that and so thanks to Er.., we got into the door and Is,, (the boy) wants to come to activities! The next day we had a cita and we went back with J.., that mini missionary who is preparing to go, and it turns out that AB LOVES J.. and his family and she wants us to come back and do an FHE with him and his family! So many cool miracles happening around here thanks to the members wanting to get involved in missionary work!</div>
<div>
<br />
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
Hmm not too many funny stories this week, we had zone conferences this week so it was so much fun seeing all my friends and catching up. Our mission´s new vision is Dos Veces en Blanco (baptism and endowment) so we all wore white to the conference. </div>
<div>
My favorite thing about our area? I like being close the office cause we can get supplies fast, always see other missionaries and I have spent my entire mission with one of the office elders, Elder B.., so its fun talking to them cause he´s like my brother (we have only had 2 transfers apart from each other... its getting kinda ridiculous actually!) The comp is great, she is so funny and patient. She even runs with me in the mornings! Love you katie! </div>
<div>
One interesting tip for gospel study is somethign elder richard g scott said, when you receive an answer, right it down, ponder it, then go back and ask what more, and keep repeating. If the windows of revelation are already open, why not keep asking and not close them ourselves? I thought that was interesting. </div>
<div>
Remember how you felt leaving efy, cause thats how it feels leaving an area. You have grown to love these people so much and seen them grow so much and then you have to leave and don´t know if you´ll ever see them again. its heartbreaking. </div>
<div>
My scripture for you is JAmes 1:7- Christ is alwasy patiently waiting for us, with His hand outstretched, just waiting for us to come unto Him. Usually when I read scriptures about fruit and vineyards, I think of the wicked people getting cast out and its a heartless sort of thing but this really stuck out to me: WE ARE ALL HIS PRECIOUS FRUIT. He desires all of us to come unto Him and does not take pleasure in having to cut out the wild fruit. Help Him bring all his precious fruit home! </div>
<div>
I love you all so much and hope you have a great week1 LOV EYOU!!!!!!!!</div>

Yet another tiring, but crazy and satisfying week! And by the way... HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY PEOPLE!!<br /><br />We saw some COOL miracles this week! Ma...(12) is the little brother of E.. (17) and J.. (15) who both were baptized in Paraguay 2 years ago and moved here a few months ago. We´ve been teaching them all since E.. and J.. have been less active pretty much since their baptism and Ma.. has been becoming more and more interested and BEGGED to come to church this week! He accepted a baptismal date for the 20th and I am pretty positive he´s going to do it! They are a great family and the older siblings are getting reactivated as a result of this! Cool stuff:)<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
ALSO we had the BEST 4th of July! WE all went over to the Castillo´s (the senior couple that works in the office) for district meeting and a barbecue. It was so much fun all sitting around in their family room, singing songs and we even had the meeting in Spanglish! Hahah it was a great day!</div>
<div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
Speaking of Mexican food, there is a mexican less active man that I met last night and I told him how much I miss mexican food and his girlfriend invited us over for mexican food sometime! YES! So we had 3 investigators when I got here, but they are all really great and I can see them all progressing towards baptism. Right now we have 2 baptismal dates, one is the son of the less active woman mentioned in my 1st paragraph and the other is Ma... From what I gather, the members here do not like hermanas from bad experiences in the past, but we are really trying to gain their trust and show them we are serious about this work! We do have some REALLY GREAT youth that love come out with us though, there are 2 recent convert girls and E.. and J.. (remember the mini missionary from malaga?) and they all LOVE coming out with the missionaries and have begged us to use them now that summer has begun. Our zone is weird cause its our district and then La Mancha. Take a look at a map and see how close that is. But they are good missionaries, I like my district already! And I LOVE fish, dad, just not muscles and big clams (little ones I like though). </div>
<div>
<br /> My piso now is my favorite one that I have stayed in yet, it's really clean and lots of space and I get my own bathroom for the first time again since October... WAHOO!! I really like it. I am quickly learning our area and I like it, there is a lot of potential here! Also our investigators are awesome. Almost all of them come to church and read. WHAT THE HECK? This place is great. Last pday we went into Malaga cause it was concilio so I wanted to see all my friends and this week we are going to the zoo! There is a lot to do around here, but since its so touristy, it costs a lot of money to do stuff. but I wanna hike here too!</div>
The new area is not quaint like my last two pueblos have been, but it has mountains and beach and we run to the beach in the mornings and go along the road along the beach for a little bit and it's BEAUTIFUL. I am a big fan! I would be okay if I didn´t have to go on another long distance train for awhile, but lucky me cause I don´t! They have the bullet trains and go RIDICULOUS speeds, but they are expensive so unless you go like to La Mancha, we don´t take them. we take a lot of intercity trains too. The fruit here is really fresh. They have something called melon, which is like cantaloupe but juicier and sweeter and I love it! But people here eat fruit for dessert. Like melon would be the dessert after our meal. also yoghurt is a dessert here too. I´ve adapted to that custom actually. Its a good way to finish it for your palate. Trust me.</div>
We met an American woman doing service this week, and she told us, with her fist raised above her head, "GOD HAS WON" and then with her other fist down to the ground, "AND LUCIFER IS BOUND!" She is very adament on these things, but apparently we made an impression cause the elders actually ran into her and tried to contact her and she said that she wasn´t interested cause she had "2 special people in her life" and started to describe us and one of the elders goes, "Would they happen to be named Sister Folsom and Sister Lionetti??" and she was like, "YEAH!" Funny, huh? So I guess she was actually interested! </div>
<div>
</div>
My scripture for you this week is Moroni 8;25-26. When I was studying it this morning I saw it in a way I had never seen before. The gospel of Jesus Christ is set up in a way so that we can progress and become like Him. With each of the steps, each of the ordinances, we develop Christlike attributes and as we endure to the end, we will eventually become perfected and become like Him. I love this gospel!</div>
LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! Os quiero, vale!<br /></div>

I feel like it has been YEARS since I last wrote you guys! I am now in my new area in Fuen! Its really odd being in President´s ward- his son gave a talk in church yesterday and I sat by Hermana Deere in Sunday School. Odd stuff, man. Its really beautiful though, right by the beach, lots of tourists and a lot of sun. Our building is SURROUNDED by pools. Oh my gosh its a terrible temptation. We leave our building and right in front of us is the entrance to the pool, wide open, calling me saying, "BECCA!! COME SWIMM!!!!" and I say, "I AM OBEDIENT, NO!!!!!!" Its okay though.</div>

IT was really hard saying goodbye to Dos Hermanas. I have grown the most there and learned so much. The people there are incredible too and we saw so much growth in the area. Some cool highlights from my goodbyes are that I was feeling really bummed about not having any converts in Dos Hermanas and we were going to go say goodbye to a family of investigators, M. I.. and A.. and their kids, and when we got to their house, they told us that everybody was over at G..´s (the member who gave us them as a referral). We went over and they had thrown me a surprise going away party!! It was so perfect and so Andaluz. Then, we ran over to P..´s afterwards and he told us that he and M.. are seriously thinking about marriage and that they want to be members. Also W>> wants to be a missionary. I miss that place so much and cried my little heart out all day Wednesday, but I am growing to love Fuengirola and working hard to build up this area.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Also cool, I already know some of the members! J..., a JAS (young single adult) who is preparing for his mission right now and goes out with us a lot, he served a mini mission in my district during my first transfer- a year ago! I already knew him! Also one of the families that fed us every week while Ï was in Málaga just moved to Fuen 3 weeks ago. We had the coolest reunion yesterday at church!</div>

I feel like such a different missionary leaving there than when I came there, I have grown up a lot, learned a lot about this work and myself and how I work. I feel like all that hard work and tears there were preparing me to come here and just hit the ground running and be able to apply everything I´ve learned and internalized up to this point here and just GO! I feel a different, more hastened energy here, I don´t know, its hard to describe. Our area is pretty solidly middle class I feel like. We have people from all over, there are a lot of south americans here too, I´ve missed that. I love comida latina. My replacement was Hermana Moreno, she is the sweetest hermana in our entire mission so they are going to do work. She´s also the only spanish hermana! </div>

Love you all very much! have a great week! LOVE YOU!</div>

Yes, its the moment we´ve all been waiting for. I´m leaving Dos Hermanas. When President called, he said he was surprised I answered, he thought I was going to have turned off my phone. It was seriously considered beforehand actually... SO... I´m going to Fuengirola! To President´s ward. Holy moly that is some PRESSURE. Hermana Deere said she´s excited to get to see me and President keeps saying stuff like, See you next week! I´m probably going to finish my mission there which is weird, heading out to my dying area and with the Deeres! I am really bummed to be leaving Dos Hermanas but I´m excited to go to Fuen. It will be a different, fun change I think and I really feel like this area will help me to focus and work hard throughout the last third of my mission.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As for here in Dos, we didn´t get to spend much time in our area this week, we had to do 2 intercambios before the transfer so we spent a total of 2 days together in our area this week. But somehow during those few days, we managed to get dropped by EVERYONE. Li.. told us she can´t see herself converting to Christianity and that she feels bad wasting our time. M.. said she can´t get over this whole gay thing and that she´s decided she can´t continue. Po.. went to France. P... answered the phone, realized it was us and goes, "Oh! Son las mormonas." and hung up. I feel SO BAD that I am leaving the area like this for Hermana Blake... It's a mess. I don´t know whats going on but there is a curse on Dos Hermanas or something. Seriously, everytime somebody is really excited and learning a lot and showing a lot of interest and really gaining a testimony, BOOM all of a sudden they want NOTHING to do with the Church or us or anything. I DON´T GET IT. Somethings gotta change here...</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
In other news, L..´s less active husband is ACTIVE now! He´s the new Sunday School president, and despite his Parkinsons, he comes to church every week and is involved and active again, for the first time in like 20 years! He was the worst one to say goodbye to, he was actually really sad I was leaving and made me promise to talk to them when I am back in the states. Their family is my family here in Dos, I´m going to miss them so much!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
It's weird leaving Dos cause all the members keep asking how much longer I have in the mission and when I say 6 months they all go, "You are going to finish in fuen then." And it's weird, but I probably WILL! Going to my dying area sounds like I have NO TIME left. But 6 months is a lot of time and a lot can happen!</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Everybody keeps talking about the new king, apparently he´s more conservative than the old one so they are nervous.Some rumors I´ve heard is that he was secretly baptized years ago and is actually a mormon and that his mom will only allow members in her staff. I don´t really believe them but members are holding onto hope that our king is mormon. </div>
<div>
I am a firm believer also that when converts are baptized, their ancestors are in the spirit world cheering and shouting for joy and are waiting for them to do their work, it's so cool! Hey well my scirpture for you this week is 1 Tim 4:12, I love that it says that we should be examples in everything, in word, conversation, purity, spirit, faith and charity. People should be able to identify us as disciples of Christ by everything that we do and say. Our actions should reflect our committment. I love you al! Have a great summer (HAGS). LOVE YOU!</div>
<div>
LOVE YOU!</div>

HELLLLLOO family! I am so jealous taht you are all together right now! NOT FAIR! ENJOY it and eat lots of good food for me!!</div>

On Saturday, we got to go see the new capilla here in Dos Hermanas with some members on our way back from a baptism. When I arrived here, the capilla was just framework and some dirt, but you could see the outline of the capilla and the potential it could become. Now, it is completely finished outside, it is a beautiful, majestic and really special building now, you can feel the spirit just walking around the gate. It was a special experience seeing it with members because they explained to us how long and how hard they have been working towards having their own capilla here in our little pueblo. When I got to Dos Hermanas, the work was really slow too, we had some investigators, but they weren´t progressing but like the capilla, they had a lot of potential. Now, 3 transfers later, we have seen a HUGE change in this area and have some incredible people we are teaching who are seriously investigating the church and really progressing. Sometimes, when I think of the new capilla, it makes me sad because after hearing about it my whole time here and seeing such a big change, I won´t get to see it when they open it, I won´t get to see it filled. I was beginning to feel the same about this area, the thought of leaving makes me sad because I have seen such a huge change and it is now like the completed, but empty capilla, the next step is to fill it. The people we work with are all to the point where they just need to take the next step and be baptized, and I really hope that I get the opportunity to stay here a little longer and see that happen!</div>

WE GOT TO DO SKYPE FOR LI..!! We skyped a chinese sister from the temple square mission yesterday and she taught Linda in chinese! It was so cool and she really opened up to her! We are going to start doing this every Sunday now so she can progress better. But she came to church for the first time yesterday and LOVED it! She said it felt really comfortable and warm. </div>

<br />RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div dir="ltr">
I read an interesting article in this month´s liahona yesterday. It talked about if our preterrenal selves had written letters to our mortal selves, what would they say? The example one said, "It is my greatest desire to be a disciple of Jesus Christ, to share His gospel and to be part of an eternal family. Do everything possible to make it happen." It's interesting to think that every single one of us chose Christ´s plan before. Elder Scott said in the last conference that "trust that given the chance, we will chose so again." I love that! We all honestly want to follow Christ and that is why we came here, so now LETS DO IT!</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br />Hmm a funny story? We were knocking doors the other day and the man told us to come back later when he wasn´t cleaning, so we wrote down his info and then I turned to walk back down the stairs and BIFFED IT and he opened the door again to make sure I was alright and suddenly we saw that his wife had been hiding behind the door the whole time we had been talking... awkward.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
I wish I could go back to high school with the knowledge I have now of how to share the gospel. Just INVITING makes a huge difference, you would be surprised how many people are really interested in learning about the gospel. You could invite them to seminary or to a noncommital meeting with the missionaries cause a lot of people don´t understand what we believe and are usually willing to have a first meeting. just an idea.... Practica, saying: "hey, thats a great question. I don´t really know how to explain that but our church actually has people called and trained to answer questions like that. They are the missionaries. Maybe one day you and they could come over to my house and they could just explain that to you, no committment but you can chose to listen to them more or not." FACIL. My scrip for you this week is ephesians 6:11-13 I like the difference between withstanding and standing against. The armor of god helps us withstand the blows of the adversary, and also defend by standing strong. It's a cool chapter. Study it.</div>

<div>
Oh my LONG week, but so much fun! We did so much this week, from concilio to intercambios to awesome investigators in church to THE WORST MUSICAL NUMBER OF MY LIFE. Just for some previews:) Oh by the way i am goin gto hit my YEAR MARK on Thursday, when did that happen??</div>
<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Concilio was BOMB. It was probably my last one and I´m going to miss it a lot, it’s so great getting to listen to President and Hermana Deere and spend time with them. SO FUNNY, me, H Blake and H Deere had all decided we weren´t going to eat sweets until concilio after talking about 2 weeks before it, but we failed and were SO worried to have to go give an accounting to H Deere about our diet. We walk in the door and she goes, Hermanas, I need to talk to you in private. We go into the kitchen and all three of us start talking about how we tried so hard but failed miserably. I love that lady! It was so funny! </div>
<br />
<div>
COOL update on P..: He stopped investigating another church!! I was shocked! He has been studying with both of us the entire time I´ve been teaching him (aka my whole time in dos hermanas) and he said finally he came to the conclusion that it was too confusing and that he needed to drop one or both of us. He prayed and decided on dropping the testigos. He was really nervous about doing it and didn´t feel like he could, so he prayed to be given the valor to do it. They came over and were talking to him and the entire time he was going back and forth between saying something or not until he decided not to say anything. He told us that all of a sudden he felt a force rush through him, he sat up and said (without any thought) "Listen, it’s better if you don´t come back. I´ve decided to stop studying wiht you." ALL THE LORD HELPING HIM! The Lord is totally guiding him and he says he wants to be baptizedi n our church for sure! YES!</div>
<br />
<div>
H..(from Rota) IS GETTING BAPTIZED ON JUNE 21ST!! He emailed Hermana Hoffman this week to tell her! IT’S ABOUT TIME! 6 months, 2 continents and countless missionaries later he is doing it. I am so happy!!</div>
<br />
<div>
M.. is the most prepared investigator I´ve taught in my entire mission and SHE WON´T ACCEPT A FECHA!! She knows she is going to get baptized and we both feel SO strong about the 21st, but she feels like it’s too fast. It’s frustrating, but i don´t know what to do. I really feel like she is the reason I am here and if I leave without seeing her baptism, it would feel really incomplete. I have to trust in the Lord and His timing though... The lady is having such a hunger and thirst after the word right now, she is zipping through the gospel principles book and can´t get enough of the gospel right now. SUCH a change from when I first met her and she wouldn´t even sit in the same room when we shared messages with her mom! Also her baby is SOOOOO cute!</div>
<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
RANDOM THINGS</div>
<div>
It’s weird that I could be serving with elders abbey´s age pretty soon here! Haha what the heck! Right now the youngest elder in our mission will turn 19 in august, but i have a feeling that this summer we are about to get a whole lot younger! we are seeing a lot of cool miracles still. We cut out a lot of unnecessary activities and at first we had a hard time filling that time, but the Lord is blessing us with more work and with more prepared people to teach. Like P.., he came to church on Sunday and LOVED it and is on track for the 21st for baptism with his daughter. Ma... Oh I totally think that Preach My Gospel should be applied thorougly everywhere! I was on intercambios in San Jose de la Rinconada, a pueblo of Sevilla and I was talking with an Hermana and we both didn´t really understand before the mission how EVERYTHING comes back to the restoration! PMG is gold. yeah transfers will be in 2 weeks. </div>
<br />
<div>
I am really enjoying having questions and then basing my studies off of those questions, also writing down questions that i can´t quite answer from investigators adn studying them. One that I studied today was: If we are created in god´s image, why aren´t we perfect like Him then? or does that mean He is imperfect? I read in Galatians 4:1-2 about how the heir is like a servant and i was thinking, okay so a prince when he is born is not born a king. He has to learn, has many tutors and challenges and it takes years before he becomes a king. Its teh same with us! WE are born as princes and princesses, still learning to become teh royalty our Heavenly parents know we can become! </div>
<br />
<div>
Worst musical number of my life: 1. we had to sing to a recording on an ipad 2. we had never practiced all together 3. the little girl who was playing the violin with us didn´t know we were doing it, so we get up to teh stand and she realizes whats going on, but takes like three solid minutes gettign her violin ready and running up. 4. the music started halfway through the song, but we didn´t eralize it until a few lines in, had to stop it and reload it and start again 5. the little girl didn´t know when to come in, she came in a bar late in the wrong key. 6. the music shut off as soon as the violin came in. 7. we ended in teh wrong key. IT WAS MORTIFYING!! haha so funny. i was laughing so hard afterwards! </div>
<br />
<div>
KAtie: YOU ARE AN AWESOME MEMBER MISSIONARY!! Members like that, who invite the investigators over and befriend them like that are TEH BEST. Thanks kate. </div>
<div>
Best part of my week was probably intercambios with hermana israelsen, she is an incredible missionary and was a SHE before this area so we know each other fairly well, we just talked nonstop from teh moment we got together until the moment we switched back, it was SO MUCH FUN!!</div>
<div>
<br />So i really didn´t understand a lot about the priesthood much before my mission either, but i´ve been learning a lot. something that has really helped me understand it adn my role in it was elder oaks´ talk from the priesthood session of last conference. I love how clearly he described the keys and authority of the priesthood and the differences. another cool insight an elder shared with me is that the aaronic priesthood caters to physical things, and the melquisedek to spiritual things. one example being baptism, the ordinance of baptism is done under the aaronic priesthood, but the reception of the gift of the holy ghost is under melquisedek (i don´t know how to spell it in english). Study teh section in PMG chapter 3, lesson 5, that also helps a lot! I lvoe you al! have a great week and stay fresh!</div>
<br />
<div>
i love you all!</div>

I canNOT believe its Monday again, but at the same time it feels like its been forever since I last wrote. Its been a crazy week, we did 2 intercambios, went to Puertollano and back, rode on various speedtrains and had some cool miracles.<br />
</div>
</div>
So you remember how I´m obsessed with L.. and her family and how we are the first missionaries that her kids have actually opened up to or even allowed into their homes? They are awesome. They love us. We are going to baptize M... Okay that's jumping to conclusions, but remember how I said that last week we prayed to know a date for a baptism and we both felt good about June 21st? So yesterday in church, I was feeling SO STRONG that M.. needs to be baptized that day. And after church I mentioned this to Hermana Blake and she said she was feeling the same! she came again all on her own and is really pushing to get her husband to come with her. Okay he´s not actualy her legal husband yet, but all they want to do is go to the townhall and sign papers and they are already planning it, so we just need to give her a reason to do it sooner rather than later. She is loving learning about the church and she went out on Saturday and bought a skirt and a dress! When she came to church yesterday wearing a long skirt, I complimented her on it and she leans over and says, "I´m Mormon, so I need to wear a skirt!" So many cool miracles happening with that family. L.. says she has never seen her daughters act like this before and they are even impacting their brother who used to get angry whenever anybody would bring up the church and now he´ll even sit in while we share messages. I know that if for nothing else, I was supposed to come to Dos Hermanas for this family. I have been blessed to see so many changes in their lives in the few months I´ve been here and seeing M.. dressed in white would be the ultimate. I am coming back to Spain for her sealing. Done.<br />
</div>
<div>
P.. and his wife came to church.. and his wife is determined to come to Noche de Hogar on Wednesday. YES!<br />
<br />Speaking of Noche de Hogar, G.. and A.. came! I don´t know if I´ve ever talked about her, she was baptized in Sevilla like 15 years ago but when she moved to Dos she went inactive cause she had a little baby boy and NO support from the ward members... sad. So A is 13 and never been to church or any activities or anything but THEY CAME ON WEDNESDAY AND LOVED IT! she wants him to be baptized, but wants him to feel comfortable at church first. BIG STEPS FOR THIS FAMILY!</div>

Snails are called caracoles (small ones) and cabrillas (big gross ones). I´ve had a weird squid rice dish that was blackish purplish. It was gross. But thats up there with snails! <br />
<br />Li… speaks Mandarin (is that the easier one?) SO COOL!! we talked to President on Monday during our interviews about Linda and he called the Provo MTC who talked to the Temple Square mission who has sister missionaries FROM CHINA who SPEAK MANDARIN who are going skype us and L.. so they can teach her in her native tongue! ISNT THAT THE COOLEST THING YOU´VE EVER HEARD?!? I´m so excited to see her face when she gets to hear them testify of Christ and understand that she won´t be alone if she decides to follow Him and be baptized. YES! When have I felt the Lord sustaining me? During a lesson with M.., we got to testify and I really felt the Lord talking to her through me. It was really cool!<br />

Alma 13:24- on that angel note, angels are preparing the hearts of people all around the world to be ready to receive the gospel. There are people being prepared here in Dos Hermanas, there in Woodinville, with Liz in Utah and Katie in Maryland. Angels can be people serving the Lord on this side adn the other side of the veil. This is one of my favorite scriptures to share with members because they are the angels preparing their friends and family for the gospel by their examples and testimonies. You are an angel, preparing the hearts of your friends to receive the gospel, maybe not today or tomorrow, but one day when the missionaries knock on their door, they will remember your example! <br />
</div>
Thanks fambam for all your love adn support! love you! have a great week!</div>

This week, everything changed. The week started out AWFUL, but ended miraculous.<br />
<div>
After our really disappointing week before the elders gave us each blessings (YAY FOR THE PRIESTHOOD!!) and we set some really good comp goals and GOT TO WORK. We decided to put a lot of faith in the Lord and we prayed and have set the goal for having a baptism on June 21st and now we are working hard and putting it all in the Lord´s hands, knowing He will provided people that are prepared for this date. And boy, has he been preparing them!</div>
<br />
<div>
So L.., the woman whose house we skyped at and you met, she was baptized like almost 30 years ago, but after a few years she and her family went inactive. Her two oldest children, D.. and T.., were baptized, but her youngest, M.., was still too young when they went inactive. BUT since they were all sealed in the temple, all of the family is on the ward list. So fast forward until 3 years ago, L.. was going though hard times; her son had cancer, her daughter with a difficult pregancy, she had to have surgeries and the crisis started, and she realized that she had to go back to church. SO one Sunday, she just went and keeps coming back. Her husband is in the process of being rescued, but her children wanted NOTHING to do with the church. Until me and Hermana Blake came to Dos Hermanas. T.. and M.. both have one child each and we´ve just been friendshipping them, getting to know them and loving them. And then two weeks ago, separately, each of them asked if we could go over to their homes to teach them and their husbands English! So this week was the first time we went over and it was AWESOME! M.. knows almost nothign about the church and wants us to teach her from the very start and T.. is softening. THEN on Sunday, we are leaving Relief Society when our ward mission leader comes up to us and says, "M.. just came with her husband and baby. Go get them!" THEY CAME ON THEIR OWN TO CHURCH WITHOUT US EVEN FORMALLY INVITING THEM! I almost cried, it was the greatest miracle of this week! I have such a great feeling about this family, we are seeing so many miracles with them right now!</div>
<br />
<div>
Update on L..: We taught her about the premortal existence on Sunday and she pointed to the picture of Christ on the folleto and says, "When I look at Jiji Christ, I feel warm." We asked her if she believed in Him and she said that she didn´t know, but that she would like to. She is progressing SO MUCH! She is actually really understanding things. The Lord is blessing us and her so much right now. </div>

Things are going so much better. This week was a testimony to me of what a difference WHAT you focus on makes in the Lord´s work. Last week, we were so focused on getting the standards and the numbers and it ended really bad. But this week, we shifted our focus on finding the elect and helping others COME UNTO CHRIST and we saw such a difference. It just naturally happened that we had really good numbers and saw miracles and were able to set baptismal dates with people. I studied a lot about goal making in PMG this week and somethign that really touched me was this, "<span style="background-color: #f9f6ed; color: #2f393a; font-family: "Lucida Grande","Lucida Sans Unicode","Lucida Sans",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Goals reflect the desires of our hearts and our vision of what we can accomplish. Through goals and plans, our hopes are transformed into action. Goal setting and planning are acts of faith." I hadn´t ever thought of goal setting as an act of faith, its so true! President always talks about setting goals that burn within us and then working hard to accomplish them and it really is the only way to do it!</span></div>
<br />
<div>
Speaking of P.., we finally got in to see him and his WHOLE family! It was my first time teaching an entire family! We watched the Restoration movie and I haven´t felt the spirit so strong in that movie before. It was really good. There is honestly such a special spirit teaching a family in their home. The gospel really does bless families!</div>
<br />
I had to give a talk yesterday in church. They aksed me saturday if i could do it... and i gave a 15 minute long one... oops. its their fault for asking me last minute, i didn´t have time to cut it. hahaha the poor elder who spoke after me gave a 5 minute talk. So<br />
<div>
<br />My scripture foryou this week is 1 Corinthians 10:13, I love this because its so true. The Lord will NEVER give you more than you can bear. He knows us perfectly and understands our needs. I love this analogy: when you do cross stitch, the back is messy and sometimes you can kinda see the picture, but its not clear and you can´t see all of it. Thats the view that we are seeing of hte plan right now. But our FAther in Heaven sees the top, perfect view. He understands how each thread connects and makes us who He wants us to be. </div>
<div>
<br />I love you all os much!!</div>
