Elder Hirst week 84
10:06 AM
Monday and Tuesday- We took a 7
hour bus ride down to Malaga and then went to Fuengirola to the mission home
for mission council, then spent the night there, had more mission council in
the morning, woke up and took a 9 hour bus ride home. Lots of sitting in
the last 48 hours.
Wednesday- that morning, we
didn't do that much, and i honestly can't remember that well, but I'm sure we
met some great people! Then as always on Wednesdays, we had lots of ward
meetings and it was very good, we have some fantastic ward leaders here who
help a lot. Then we met with Frank Lourdes and Erica and organized
Erica's baptism and it'll be great, it's even on stake conference so that will be
fun
Thursday- we taught a less
active in the morning who is really working towards coming back, and that's
going well. Then we did weekly planning in the morning, and then in the evening
we were able to visit this family in our ward that is from Idaho. Well the mom
is from Blackfoot Idaho, and her kids are half Spanish. They live in a pueblo
of Alicante, San Vicente, and they live in a house! I know that sounds not that
exciting, but it is for us, because nobody lives in houses in Spain, they all
live in apartments. Anyway, that was fun and it was weird to be speaking
normal English
Friday- We had district meeting
in the morning, and then that evening we knocked some doors, we had a meeting
with the bishop from the other ward because there is going to be a big
classical concert here in the church next Friday and we want to get a lot
of people to come.
Saturday- we played futbol in
the morning and it was way fun, I love playing futbol. Us Americans this
time weren't on a team because they know how good we are when we are
together. Individually we all are pretty bad. But it was way fun
and we had some people from our area there. That evening we had general
conference, Saturday morning session. Lourdes came. Then after we
went and visited Angel and talked about the importance of reading the
scriptures and why we have them and it was great
So much walking he gets lots of holes in his sox
Sunday- we just watched
conference all day. Unfortunately I wasn't able to listen a ton, because we
were figuring out other stuff and being with investigators and stuff, but I'll
be sure and go back and really re read them. Anyway, from what i could hear, it
was an amazing general conference and the talks were very inspired. We
had quite a few investigators and less actives come to the church to see the
conference so that was great. Anyway, general conference is the best.
Elder Hirst eats this just about every day. Guess when you are as thin as Elder Hirst you don't worry about carbs
I'm sorry if my group email is
kind of getting lame. Just lots of stuff going on, and not a lot of it is
the most exciting to report, but the mission is super great and I'm loving it
so much. Hope you are well!!
