Conference was the
best!! Granted I did have to watch it in Spanish. We had to watch it in a
member’s home because we don’t get it down here in our little town, and we weren’t
able to watch the last session because it is too late here. I think we will
watch it for District Meeting. I will need to talk to some members in Valencia
to get that set up ha ha. But there was only one place to watch it in English
with headphones, and of course I let my comp watch it in English because he wouldn’t
have understood a word in Spanish. But it was actually good, it made me pay
really, really close attention and surprisingly I understood mostly everything.
I love President Uchtdorf’s talk about light and darkness. I just think of how
we help these people come to the light and put them on the right path! And I liked
Elder Cardon’s (I think that is his name) talk about forgiveness. It is all so
true, the Lord wants to forgive us, we just have to be humble enough to repent
and use the atonement in our lives. That is why we have it! And we need to
forgive ourselves and others. I really liked those two talks, and am excited to
watch or read the last session sometime soon!
We will be having a baptism
on the27th! It is this Romanian girl, we went and visited her and her family
and it is all official now, so we are pretty stoked about that. But we want one
before then, so we are working really hard with the people we have to push them
to get in the water! Easter was pretty
normal here. Spain was pretty much a ghost town this week. It was a holiday all
week for the semana santa because the Catholics are huge during Easter and take
the whole week off. But for us it was just like normal, almost like it didn’t
even come — ha ha — holidays and things like that don’t really occur to me too
much anymore, it is just like a normal day! But yeah that’s about it; interviews
with president are this week. I love interviews with him! I love just sitting
and talking with him about the missionary life and what we can do to be better.
So I am excited to see him this week. Hopefully I pass!! Ha ha,
Aright, hope all is well, summer is coming!! Hopefully with how much I sweat during summer I will lose some weight.
Love,
Elder Farah
