Spanish fun fact of the day! Good morning means buenas dias, but people here are really lazy so they just say buenas. so they are just basically saying "Good!"
"Hey Good!" "Good!"
Yeah it´s like that...
Well, I would say it has been a GOOD week! We started teaching a man by the name of Saul! He is pretty awesome! We had a super spiritual lesson and set a baptismal date for the 24th. Fuengirola is so amazing and has such great potential! There are people from all over the world here!
This week we decided to set a goal to talk with every single person! For all of those who have not visited Spain its basically walking around in the microwaveable food section of Walmart. There are always people there no matter what time of day. So I would say we talked to around 200 people this week. By doing this we saw countless miracles. Sometimes our fear gets in the way of the Lords work! We need to able to work on the level of the Lord. It is not easy to get there, but we need to make our best effort to be able to show the Lord our faith.
I was just informed the other day that Angie (the girl in my last area who changed her life in a week)
will get baptized this Wednesday!!! The Lord has so many ways of getting his work done! I am so blessed to be able to be a first hand witness of it.
As I think of my mission, and the times when I grew the most, I wasn't necessarily having fun. We need to understand that not all of life is rainbows and unicorns. Don´t get me wrong! Life is super fun and a great attitude can change everything. We just can’t expect life to be super fun and interesting ALL the time. Some of the greatest moments on my mission have been uncomfortable. It’s when we make hard decisions that we can truly change!
I love how simple yet so complex the Gosple is! We can always do better!
I love this gospel!!
Love,
Elder Owens
