So I just finished writing my letter to president so you can just read that
for the highlights of my week. Some interesting things this week were: I ate
snail for lunch with one of my investigators. We were locked out of our
piso on friday night and slept at the bishop´s house. I helped in giving
two blessings this week. I also helped in two ordinations for aaronic
priesthood on sunday. We got takeout lunch on thursday and gave our
grapes and juice boxes to a homeless guy. We met a jamaican man on sunday
who talked about how Jesus is the government and that was interesting. I
got a haircut monday and will send pictures next week (it was more like a buzz,
but a little longer, I miss my hair though). We went to a catholic
church on monday for preparation day. Tomorrow I get to go on exchanges
with another elder from valencia overnight and can´t wait. Today we are
going to make a pie because we have no money to go to valencia to play with the
other missionaries because Elder westfall and I paid 160 euros to get the locksmith
to open our door (he just used a card to pick the lock!!!!!!) and the hermanas
have to go up to barcelona this week, so we´re kind of short on money. I
have two letters going home this week, so look for them. Sorry that this
letter is just a mess with random events and activities because I spent too
much time writing to president and copying your letters and printing them off.
Well, I love you and want to let you know that I´m working really hard out
here in spain and that I´m not homesick anymore, that I have not bad days but
hard moments and good moments too. This mission in tough and I wish
people would have told me that earlier, but it´s a wonderful learning experience.
I Love the scriptures and I love the people out here. The church is true
and Christ died for us so we can live with Heavenly Father again. I
know that families can be together forever. I love you and pray for
you. Have a wonderful week!
Love,
Elder Gonzalez
