Hello to all of my adoring fans. It's time for your favorite part of the week again 🤘 It's been a pretty solid week here in Valladolid. The work is moving along quite nicely I've gotta say. We've got a pretty good teaching pool now and we're working hard to help them progress and to find even more people. The time difference from here to the States is something I forget about sometimes. Spain is eight hours ahead of Brentwood so when it's late afternoon here, it's morning in America there, hence the song title in the subject by Jon Bellion.
We started teaching a guy from Brazil this week named Dani. He's a pretty solid guy and goes to a 7th Day Adventist church. It's been interesting to see what he believes as we teach him. He told us that if we went to his church on Saturday, he would come to ours on Sunday. It was actually pretty neat to go to another church's service. It's something I don't think I'd ever done before. Dani seemed intrigued by the Book of Mormon, so we committed him to reading it, and he's been doing so. It's just a matter of whether he gains a testimony of it now.
We also received a referral for a woman who has been a member for a couple years now. Apparently she's been living in Valladolid for like a year now, but hasn't been to church because she doesn't know where the chapel is hahaha. We've been trying to meet with her all week, but whenever she tells us a time to come over, she ends up not being home. She's a little elderly, so maybe she's just forgetful.
The other elders had another investigator baptized yesterday! His name is Jose and he's really just a top quality guy. He comes to the sports activities we hold on Saturdays and plays soccer with us. We just recently found out that he knows how to speak English. He actually claims he learned by playing video games and watching soccer hahaha.
Think that about wraps it up for this week. I'll talk to you all again next week!
