Elder Weelson (4/14)

Hey Family!!! ¿How ya´ll doin? This week has been AMAZING.  Seriously each and every week just gets better and better.  Not in the sense of just everything overall gets better... but I just learn more and more every single week, and come to know my Savior, Jesus Christ more and more every single week.  But actually this last week has just been incredible in all aspects!!:) We should be having 2 baptisms this week with J. and V. They are from Nigeria, and are just incredible.  They lost there jobs.... like everyone in spain.. and they are getting kicked of there apartment because they dont have the money to pay the rent... but they are still doing so amazing, and drawing closer to the Lord. Its incredible to see how in difficult times when we need our Savior the most in our lives... we can easily just slip away and fall away from Christ.  They are such strong people and have and AWESOME little girl named Vera.  In the lessons we have she just never leaves me alone.. hahaha shes always trying to get me to play tug a war with her with something... or just look at her!  hahaha shes so awesome! That family is the greatest, and are so strong in this difficult time of there lives.  Please pray for Joseph and Victoria family!

So this week, I also did exchanges with the APs.  I went to there area, and worked with an elder named Elder Blanchard.  Hes from Idaho and is just incredible.  I felt like the whole day I was just taking notes and asking him advice.  I learned so much from him in all aspects of the work (The Language, street contacting, teaching, working with members, and obedience).  I am so grateful for that chance I had to learn from him during taht exchange.  We had tons of failed lessons that day... so it was interesting to see even the AP's get canceled on sometimes!;) hahaha.  But yeah, it went super super good!

This week honestly flew by..... hahaha I dont remember that much that happened.  I finally met all the members of the branch.  They are all the greatest!! They are super awesome.  We met a family from Brasil.. and started talking to them about all there food and culture and stuff, and they were like... "Wow... we got a brazilian desguised as an american here!!" hahahaa they were loving it.  They have a daughter and her husband that arent members living there.  I didnt  even know they werent members when I met them and we get along super well and were going to start working with them to reactivate them and batpize the 2!:)  

Let me tell you.... Fuenlabrada is just a miracle area.  We have seen soooo many miracles here.  People calling us and setting up lessons and just finding so many prepared people. 

Sorry family... we dont got much time.  We had a zone activity this week for P day.  We all went to Leganes and played soccer and had a big BBQ.  It was super awesome!! I ate  like 5 burgers and some chicken... hahaha...... I gotta watch my hormones.  hahahaha.  But things are going incredible.  The zone here has tons of room to grow, but are doing incredible! Im learning so much, and am so thankful for this blessing to be a missionary.  I know my Savior lives.  I know He knows me perfectly.  He is my firm and constant rock that I will always rely on.  I love my big brother Jesus Christ with all my heart.  

I love ya'll so much!!!

Till next week.... the happiest elder ever, Elder Weelson!:)
