Hello everyone! Live is pretty good here in Almeria!  We succesfully got our ipads! We left friday morning and came back way late friday night.  It took forever to sink the ipads because everyone in my zone did it at once.  But everyone at the end got it all taken care of!.... Except for one Elder in my district, his ipad doesn´t work. Pour guy haha.  As of right now we don´t have access to facebook, I´ll think we´ll get permission in a few months haha.  And also we can´t use the planning applications because there are some "legal barriers" that we can´t put people´s address on the internet or something like that.  They´re working on it though.  So basically right now ipads only serve us for our personal study if we want, and we can download videos from the church. We´re thinking of ways as a mission to use the ipads to help us with our purpose as missionaries so we´ll see what we can do.

This week was really good!  We are working with these less actives Monolo and Ana.  They are really awesome! Sealed in the temple and everything.  They have lots of potential so we´re working with them that they can be completely active in the church and receive callings.  They´ve showed up 3 weeks in a row and hopefully they´ll be willing to receive callings here soon.

Also we met with Isabel the Aunt of José who has a baptism date.  We placed a baptism date with her for the last week of June.  She says she wants to but I don´t know how willing she is to go to church and read the scriptures and progress.  Elder Chacón and I are focusing on finding people who are going to progress.  And inviting people to do stuff so that they can progress.  

I´m super happy to be here in Almeria and we´ll see if we can find new people to teach this week!
