What a week! We had the opportunity to do many things!  Last p-day we
went to the famous Alhambra in Granada. It was our whole p-day, we got
up at 6, traveled for 2 hours, got there and looked at it and it is
HUGE! It took a few hours to look at all! Then traveled home and p-day
was over haha.  But it was so awesome! I'll send pics of course haha.

So I received a call Friday night from President Andersen saying that
I'm going to train! I'm going to re-open the area in a city called
Cadiz! I was super sad when he called me saying that I was leaving but
know I'm pretty excited to get to know another city.  It's so sad that
I'm leaving this area though because I've gotten so close to the
people here especially the family of Darren.  It was awesome to be
able to see Daren baptized but I wanted to see the whole family!  I'm
thinking they'll all get baptized in this next transfer! Just need a
little push haha.

But I'm excited for Cadiz! It's a city right on the beach but on the
other side of Spain. The city is really pretty and they have a crazy
accent I've heard so we'll see.

So Darren got confirmed yesterday and it was awesome! Rosario liked it
a lot, she should be baptized in no time haha. They just found out
that his little brother Christian has pneumonia like 3 days ago so
that's pretty sketchy.  Also Emi and her kids came to church and also
Kristel and her mom so it was a successful last Sunday!

I have loved my time in Almería! It's crazy to think that when I got
here there was literally no work.  They say that there are people
prepared just for you when you go on the mission. I was sent to
Almería to find Darren and his family. God has given them this chance
to get to know the gospel and I hope they all take advantage. I would
love to see this family sealed in the holy temple!

Love you all! Elder Stephens
