Life is good, this place is soooo beautiful. I honestly haven´t seen so much grass for almost a year. Craziness. The feel of this small town is so different than that of Málaga. It is such a laid back feeling and attitude to life which makes it hard to try and have urgency in the work, and it is much more humid here than it was in Málaga and cold humidity has a tendency to stick to the bone. No me gusta. Pero no pasa nada!
These first couple days here have been good. Elder Clark (went to Mountain View with me) has been taking good care of me, and has made me lunch everyday that we haven´t been fed by our member that we live with. Yup, we live with a member. We actually have our own little mini house out behind her house, but it´s awesome. This will be the only time in the mission that I will be able to have pets. 4 dogs, a pony, a cow and lots of chickens. I love it!
We have witnessed several miracles just these past few days, but one that I would like to share with you is this: We were able to give a blessing to a non member friend of a member while we were in this member´s home. Her name is Rocio. She has never talked with the missionaries before, and after the blessing, she was crying and we explained what the spirit was and she accepted to hear our message. I am so happy for here and hope that we will be meeting with her often to help her come closer to our heavenly father.
Our ward mission leader also lives with us. He lives in a room above the house that our mamita lives in. He is from france and his nickname in highschool was popeye. He is super strong. We helped a member move last week, and this 71 year old frenchman was lifting more weight than just about anyone else without any problems. He´s awesome and his name is Daniel, but we call him Danny.
Welp, that´s all for the week. The church is true, and life is good.
Love you all,
Elder Garrett B Turley
