Hola from Valencia, Spain

September 29, 2009

Hello everyone, how is it going with you all?  Things are going well here.  My companion and I live appoximately 10 miles away from the big town of Valencia.  Our district and zone leaders will be coming to our area over the next two weeks to do splits with us and help us talk to more people in our area.

I was glad to get your letters this week and the pictures of my 2 nephews.  They are growing up so fast.  Keep the letters coming!

Everyone from our zone came to our place for P-Day and we had a good time.  We played some skip-Bo, air hockey, ping-pong,  and fusbal in our chapel.  I really enjoyed playing ping-pong again.

I get to give the message to Kati and Herasmos after dinner tonight.  The topic is on faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.  Mosiah 4:9 ” Believe in God; believe that he is, and that he created all things, both in heaven and in earth; believe that he has all wisdom, and all power, both in heaven and in earth; believe that man doth not comprehend all the things which the Lord can comprehend.” 

I am starting to begin the discussions more often now and it helps me to practice the Spanish language.  I cannot beleive that I have been out in this area for 5 weeks already, time is flying by pretty fast.  My goal is to be fluent in the language by Christmas, so be ready Dad when I call to talk in Spanish

Have a nice day!
