Hello there! Last weeks letter was super long, I don´t think
it´ll be quite as long this week. It´s finally warming up! The last few days
have been so much warmer, basically spring. I´m not getting my hopes up though,
Im sure it will rain and get cold again before we´re done. But I´m enjoying the
nice weather while I can. We´re going to the Plaza España again, but we´re
taking some investigators with us that are about our age and need some friends.
One of ours and one of the Elder´s. It should be lots of fun!
This week started out kind of rough. We were having a hard
time having motivation to work as hard as we could. But we buckled down and
really tried to work, even though neither of us really had any motivation for a
few days. And holy guacamole, we were blessed.
The lesson in Relief Society yesterday was all for me. Just
for me. It was Pres. Uchdorf´s talk on ´´you can do it´´ or whatever it´s
translated to in english. But it was a really nice boost and reminder that I
could keep going.
And then Sunday we talked to so many people! I´ve never
talked to that many people in one day. We´d just chosen some streets the night
before during planning to work, either tocing or talking to people in the
street. So we went to the first street and at the first door a girl on her bike
rides up and says she lives there. She´s a college student from France that we
talked to. And as we were talking to her 5 of her friends drive up and start
talking to us too. We invited them all to english class and I honestly think
they´ll go. All of them wanted a card and perked up at the word ´´gratis´´
(Free).
After them we wandered into another street and got into this
super great building with some really great people to visit again. We were
talking to this one lady in the door when her granddaughter started singing us
OneDirection songs. She basically sang us a whole concert, it was the cutest
thing ever. But the best part was once we found the name of the street
(Sometimes this is complicated here in Spain. The street names aren´t always in
the most obvious places) we realized it was our 2nd street that we´d planned.
We hadn´t even realized that it was the street we were planning on, but the
Lord totally led us there.
It was really nice to see the Lords hand in his work. It´s
nice to have my animo back too. I´m ready to go to work and have fun and help
people! Love you all a bunch! I hope you have a great week and can
recognize the hand of the Lord in your life this week. The Lord is in the
details, I promise.
Loves,
Hermana Woolley
