Alexa, play Barcelona by George Ezra

Palacio de Aljafería, a super old palace in the middle of Zaragoza 
 Hola a todos!

2 pieces of information. We do not own an Amazon Alexa, but playing Barcelona by George Ezra sure would be appropriate because that is where I'm heading! We got a call from Presidente, and later the Zone Leaders about some transfer news. I will be leaving Zaragoza, and spend the last 5 weeks of my time in Spain in Barcelona. It is very bittersweet because I was really thinking I was going to finish my mission in Zaragoza, and I have met some super amazing people and members here, but, I am super super excited to be going back to Barcelona. I won't be in the office this time, so I hopefully will be able to meet some more members in Barcelona, and I am super excited for this final chapter of my mission. 

This past week was been super busy. Like one day we had 6 citas, we were driving from cita to cita, and we were barely making it to our citas, it was crazy! One of our citas was an English class. We teach lots of English for free as a service, in hopes that the people we teach English will want to learn about the Gospel. This was like the 4th of 5th class we have had with these people, and at the beginning of the cita, they asked, hey just out of curiosity, could you explain to us where your church comes from?? We were kinda shook, commenced with the lesson of the Restoration. I felt the Spirit so strongly as I shared the first vision in the words of Joseph Smith. It was an awesome lesson, and they were very interested and grateful for teaching them. I hope they keep having interest in learning more, even after I depart.

Until next week!
