Quarantine: Week 11

Hola a todos!

It has been another great week in quarantine! We have been pretty busy through Facebook and we are finding new people to teach and reaching out to tons of people! Vamos!!!

Looking at the numbers of Spain, cases of the virus are slowly but surely deescalating. Our mission President told us that by June 15th, we will be able to meet with people in our chapel, and by July start going back to church for our meetings!!! They are not 100%, but are highly likely! We also have found out that in October we are receiving 75 new missionaries. And as of now, we are hovering around 100, and we will be losing some more in the near future. So we are short-staffed and looking forward to getting some more missionaries in a few months!

This week I was really able to see the hand of the Lord in my daily life, and I saw tons if tender mercies, and testify that they are real. I know the Lord knows each of us, personally, and he is mindful of us and our situations. As Nephi says in Nephi 1:20

20....But behold, I, Nephi, will show unto you that the tender mercies of the Lord are over all those whom he hath chosen, because of their faith, to make them mighty even unto the power of deliverance.

I hope everyone has had a great week and a good start to a new month!! And well, a patriotic reminder of the week, remember June 6th, 1944, D-Day. 76 years ago, allied troops stormed 5 beaches of Normandy in Nazi-occupied France. It was a horrendous battle, and thousands of men died in the name of freedom. So remember their sacrifices this week! Hang up your flags!

Until next week!
