Quarantine: Week 5

 Just chillin' in quarantine
Hola a todos!

That is correct, we are heading into week 5 of quarantine, but we are seasoned veterans and we know how to survive in piso. We had a great week 4 in piso, and I enjoyed my first Easter here in Spain, so it was a great week!

So yeah, about Easter! I truly love this time of year, April. It's when the weather starts getting great, you have General Conference, and I mean this year was amazing, you have Easter, and come on, who doesn't like April fools??? I love April, but hands down my favorite part is Easter. This has been said in General Conference, and I believe it has been said before as well, but what was the most important day in history. And that leads to a wide range of debate. I mean, July 4th, 1776 anybody??? Okay but in all seriousness, the most important day in history, the most important day for all mankind, was the day 2,000 years ago, más o menos, when the Savior suffered for the sins, pains, and afflictions for every one of us. He paid a price he didn't have to pay, because He knew it was a price we could not afford. His suffering was the most selfless act of love known to mankind, and words cannot express how grateful I am for the Atonement. 

I hope everyone had a great Easter! And I have faith that we will be seeing massive recovery world wide from the virus, from our efforts of the world fast last Friday. Hang in there!
