DOS HERMANAS!! [Letter 64]

FAMILY!!!
I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Seriously it is awesome. It has a small town feel but is about as big as my area in Almería. So its fabulous. The ward here is awesome. And i´m not joking when I say that we fill up every seat in the sacrament room. I have heard that they are going to build a new chapel but it won´t be done for about a year. Then it really will be over flowing. The people here are really really nice. It is so much fun talking with them. My new companion Hermana Ramsay is AWESOME!! She has a very bubbly personality and people can´t help but love her. It is a lot of fun to work with her. I am laughing all the time and we get a lot of work done. She walks really fast. She is a great teacher and she relates to people like I´ve seen nobody else do. I am learning so much from her.

This next week we have some great plans to teach and find people. I´m excited. Also guess what time of year it is? EASTER! and that means Semana Santa here in Spain. No joke yesterday when we were RUNNING home to be in on time every street we turned down was blocked off by tons of people and the giant parade of KKK dressed people with giant candle sticks and a gigantic trono with a lady on it carried by about 20 men. The band followed behind with drums and trumpets. It is very unusual but also very Spanish  It is fun to be here for the cultural things. Experiences never to be forgotten for sure.

Well my lovely family I love you. I know that Christ lives and I am excited for this next week to really focus on Him and His resurrection. Many ask if Mormons are Christians why don´t we display the cross like so many others. I am happy to respond that as a disciples of Christ we worship the resurrected Christ. We focus on His great victory over death. I am eternally grateful for His sacrifice on my behave and I am grateful for this opportunity to serve Him and His children here in Spain. I hope everyone has a great week and I invite you to ponder on what this Man means to you and how He can/has changed your life. I love you all so much and hope for you the best ever!

Love,
Hermana Petru
