Hello this week was a great one! First thing is we had a baptism!!! We baptized Josefa on Saturday and it was great! I did the ordinance and it was the first time for me so it was a great experience! She couldn´t be baptized normally because of her health so we had her sit on her butt and after I said the baptismal prayer I laid her down like she would on a bed and I brang her back up.  So it was successful! The only people who showed up were the branch president, the branch mission leader, and their families so I was disappointed with the showing of the members.

And then yesterday during church was a great time! We had two people show up without even us talking to them or anything.  One of them was a man named Rafael who just showed up on his own out of curiosity.  The other was a women named Loli who is a friend of one of our members.  During our gospel principles class she started bawling, the spirit was so strong and it was so awesome to see the spirit work in her so much.  She kept saying "I´ve attended so many churches in my life and never have a felt anything like what I feel right now." It was so awesome but she lives in a town an hour away from Córdoba.  It´s still in our area though so if everything works out we´ll be able to visit her! 

My comp right now is so ready to go home though. He is always talking about home and is really unfocused.   Last night when we went to bed he was talking to me for like an hour just listing all things that he misses and that´ll he´ll be able to do when he gets home.  I told him that these last two weeks we´ll be super good and get a whole bunch of work done!  And hopefully we won´t be talking about home too much but it´s really hard not too haha.

Today was the best p-day ever! So Sunday there were 3 Germans and one american who lives in Germany that are members of the church.  They are touring all the places here in Spain and were in Córdoba so they decided to go to church here.  So we were talking to them after church (they all spoke almost perfect English) and they invited us to come see some tourist spots here in Córdoba the next day (today).   We were literally with them all day and it was so fun to get to know them!  I definitely didn´t expect that here in Spain I´d be hanging out with a bunch of Germans, but it was super fun! We got to see a bunch of places here in Córdoba that I have never visited so I´ll be sending home some good ones.

I´m literally so happy to be in this wonderful country with these wonderful people the mission is literally the best thing in the world.  I love it so much!!

Have a great Easter everyone! And mom happy birthday I LOVE YOU!!! :)
