These are the wonderful people that Grant help baptize 30 years ago. Grant talked to them for the 1st time, 2 weeks ago. They drove up special to meet Shayla. What a blessing!!

Tansfer 12, Week 4 Leganes
August 31, 2011
Dear Family,
Dad, I think you will like the photo this week ;) Carmen and Moises Conde came to my ward to say hi. Carmen is charming and elegant and any other good thing I can say. She shared some experiences that she has had with the Spirit when we went to gospel principles class together. It touched my heart to think that you were part of helping her learn the gospel. Moises said that he used to go on visits with you and that you baptized a lot of people. They didn't have to be modest for you ;) They said that they still live in the same little place where you visited them. It was so exciting. Carmen brought a few gifts including some money for my companion and I to go out to eat. That was so nice.
So...Hna Jimenez and I are going to go out for Chinese food today...that is what she wanted for her birthday, BUT: last p-day we played soccer with the Elders and she fell...she sprained her ankle and hurt her wrist. The next day, her birthday, I made pancakes and then she said she needed to go to a doctor...after waiting in line in a clinic they sent us to the hospital...where we waited in the emergency section. They called her and I waited for about 30 or 40 minutes...and I talked to a nice abuelita named Maria. Then she came back to the waiting room with a cast on her fractured wrist and a bandage on her ankle. by that time we were way too tired to go out for Chinese food...so I made sweet and sour chicken and rice for her and the other sisters that live with us....can I say it was awesome sweet and sour.....
This week was a little slow and way exhausting with everything that happened, but we had a miracle!!!!!!! After what feels like two months searching and searching and meeting wonderful people but not seeming to see progress, we met Carol through her friend Carlos that we had been teaching on a bench outside. She is 18 and so so super prepared for the gospel. In the first lesson we asked if she had thought about why we are here on earth, where we came from etc, and she said "all the time." She said she thinks that God created us to do something with our lives...He wouldn't have created us just to do nothing. She said she sometimes wondered what she should do and what she shouldn't do in life. She said that she is completely open to new ideas...she had heard of the church in Peru but never learned much about it. We explained the example of Jesus's baptism which was 1.done by someone who had authority from God 2.done at an age when a person is accountable for their sins 3.done by immersion. She said that she had been baptized in a church just before she left Peru because her mom said she should...even though she doesn't believe in the leaders and many of the practices of that church and she thought that baptism should be by immersion like Jesus Christ. She thought of her baptism as false but she seemed worried that she couldn't be baptized again. We explained that a person may have been baptized many many times but it is only valid when performed in the right way by someone who has authority. Day 2: She had read and understood the whole pamphlet of the Restoration and it was all clear to her. She said that when she read the story of Joseph Smith she asked herself, "well, I have learned of many people who have had visions...why not Joseph Smith?" We gave her the Book of Mormon and she is excited to read it. We feel so blessed and we know that the slow difficult time that came before was to help prepare us.... if nothing else, it has taught us to treasure this miracle even more.
Hna Jimenez and I are doing great...even if I have to tie plastic bags around her foot and arm before she showers ;) Poor girl. We laughed the whole time.
Sharah, Josh, and Jacob....cant wait to see you!!!!
Mom, cant wait to help out at home....it gonna be a party.
Shalese, I love to hear about the work there. I love you!
Love you all,

Tansfer 12, Week 3 Leganes
August 24, 2011
Dear Family
We got the official no on the idea for me to go to Barcelona...but at least we tried ;) I guess there is a rule in the Mission Presidents manual about this exact situation...Id like to read that manual one day....So I will be home on Tuesday Sept 20th as planned.
Dad...that is an impressive embarrassing moment. I say you should hire her. I am excited that the store is coming together.
Jake....How great that you are there working with Dad on this project! You wont forget it and I am sure you are learning a ton.
Sharah...I am writing a letter to you today :)
Josh...How are you liking the Charter school? I cant wait to play soccer with you guys. Are you ready to be "destroyed"? Remember the What game?
Mom....uniforms sound nice....super easy. That is a really great idea to have the parents volunteer at the school. This school sounds amazing. I hope everyone involved can keep up the excitement in the years to come.
Shalese...I got your letter...I don't know if you received mine but you should look for Ibuprofen cream in the pharmacy.
We are teaching a great couple from Nigeria, Sylvester and Nancy. They are incredible because they understand everything we teach. The other day we taught them about the Plan of Salvation and Sylvester asked, "What about someone like my grandpa in Africa who never had the opportunity to learn the Gospel?" We read 1 Peter 3:18-19 and 4:6 about Jesus Christ teaching in the Spirit world to the dead. He said, tapping the Bible, "It is written. It is scripture." The doctrine that we teach just makes sense to them and they have great questions.
Belén and Santiago continue to be amazing with their amazing four kids. We just don want to see Alison(10) and Leonardo(8) have to go back to Valencia to live with their dad during the school year. Belén had a hard life and it sounds like her family married her to an older man when she was younger. She says the the Lord has recompensated her with Santiago who is wonderful to her and the children. Alison and Leonardo are smart, good, receptive to the Spirit, respectful, and they remember my name. We are going to fast with them for a financial issue that is putting a lot of stress on them right now. The challenge is getting them to church because it is at least a 45min walk and they don't have a car...we walked it with them the other day and I was tired out afterwards...but their kids were running circles around us the whole time.
We think Selene has gone on vacation...she has disappeared. Please pray for her to come back.
Today we had an activity in the chapel with eight Elders and nine Hermanas. We played soccer and sang to Hna Jimenez for her birthday tomorrow.
oops...better go. Sending foto of first ward FHE yeah! Belen and Santiago are on the left with a two year old in his arms.
Love you all so much!!!

Dear Family,
I love love love Shaleseś emails. so funny!!!! So true.
Hahahahhahhaahahahhahaha Dad, I loved your email too.
Josh...those underpants sound dangerous....I'm excited for you guys to teach me soccer!
Jacob...I love to hear that you are helping out with the new store! It sounds like a family project! Maybe Iĺl be able to find a job after all ;)
Sharah: I hope you love the new charter school. That is pretty crazy that it is in the old Walmart.
Mom: Thanks for never giving up on trying to get us to do scripture study, practice piano, do homework etc. You are a blessing to us all with Dad.
It was so nice to read what you forwarded from Aunt Koolwhip! I loved the cake explanation of our trials...Maybe we can use that in a lesson!
We are working hard with:
Selene-16 who has a testimony, feels the spirit and is super sweet,
Victor-38 from Guinea Bisoa who had a sweet experience with learning to pray,
Sandra-30? from Colombia, she seems to have less doubts every day. She doesn´t understand why we don't drink coffee....colombia is the coffee capital of the world.
Santiago and Belen, 25 with four kids. She is overwhelmed with 4 kids but she loves them a lot. We hope to help them prepare for baptism. They can see already the blessings that are coming with our visits.
We love them all.
My companion is amazing amazing amazing. Hna Jimenez...as you know, is from Honduras but has lived in Barcelona for six years. She laughs all the time...she reminds me of Courtney Deans (now Sanders) and she is always singing English songs from the 1940s and 50s. She knows all the words. She has no fear and we work really well together. I knew it would be like this: The mission gets better and better every day...and this last transfer is turning out to be one of the very best.
I love you all!!!

August 10, 2011
Dear Family,
Big news in Leganes: I get to stay!!! Yayayayayay! I was so happy when I found out that I would stay. Hna Benítez is going to the center of Madrid and Hna Piedade will still be living in our piso but she will be with Hna Wilson. (Hna Wilson was with Hna Waters...who was my comp in the MTC...now she is in Idaho. So Crazy. I loved to be with her at the beginning and the end!) My new comp is Hna Jimenez de Honduras!! She is super sweet. I think she is just what this area needs right now. We are working hard and I feel in-sync with her.
Yesterday Pipi (14, española...looks 18...real name is Fatima) came with us for a lesson with Selene (16, Equador). Pipi described her experience at EFY and how she went a little rebellious but felt the Spirit a ton and came back a new person. It is true...she wore a skirt to church and bore her testimony. Selene wants to get baptized!!!!! She is worried about what her mom will say, and she might go out of town this weekend so we might have to push her date back but it is currently the 27th of August.
I sent a picture of Selene with all of us, one of me with Hna Benítez and Hna Jimenez, and one with with Pipi and her mom Fami who got baptized almost 3 months ago...I love them all!!!!
Life is super great. There is a possibility that I could go over to serve with Shalese for a few days after this transfer ends. We will see what happens. Iĺl let you know for sure next week.
Jacob is driving the rice rocket!!!! It sounds like he is taking good care of it. Dad...remember when you taught me how to drive stick and we got stuck doing bunny hops at the intersection on Sheckler and...Wow..I for the other street name...by the pool, and five cars passed us. Learning how to drive is not exactly the best bonding experience :) at least not for a few years until we can look back and laugh.
I love to hear that the whole ward came out to help the Kelsy family move. I have been surprised how much I have missed my ward family on the mission. It shows me that it really is a family!!
Mom...that is so great that you could be there in the lesson with Heatherś friend. It is incredible to hear that you can receive that much support for a lesson! Eight people! We feel that a majority of our ward is on vacation from Church or something for the summer. Way to go Heatherś ward!!!
Anyway. I love you all so much

Tansfer 11, Week 6 Leganes
Aug 3, 2011
Dear Family,
Thanks for the prayers. They are being answered so so much. We are teaching Selene (16, Ecuador, amazing). We started teaching her a week ago but she went on vacation for a week....oh no! But when we saw her again on Monday she had not only read 3 Nephi 11 but all the chapters until 21, and the pamphlet. We taught her about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon. We asked if she would pray to ask if the Book of Mormon was true and she said she hadn't prayed about it but she believed that it IS true. I explained that the same had happened to me...we know the Book of Mormon is true because it is good, but if we ask Heavenly Father He will also give us a Spiritual confirmation in our heart that it is true.
Yesterday we taught her the plan of salvation. (yes, she had read Alma 40 and the pamphlet like we asked her to). The lesson was great because SHE is great and we always feel the spirit with her. At the end I remembered to ask about how her prayer went (very important to ask) and she described how she prayed the night before and didn't know why but she started to cry and felt something that she didn't know how to describe. She said she didn't know if it was the answer but she couldn't describe it. She described exactly what happened to me when I was little. Mom, do you remember the night I tried to explain what I felt after praying but I couldn't? (Write back about that....I want to know what you remember.) This was definitely one of the best moments on the mission.
Santiago and Belen are also progressing a ton. After watching the video about Joseph Smith with them we left it for their daughter Alison (10) to watch. A few days later we went over but just Alison and the kids were home. She gave a perfect and beautiful summary of the video. She really liked it. I felt the Spirit so strong as she described the First Vision to us in the doorway. AS we left Hna Benítez asked us...is she 10 or 20 years old? This is a very special family. On Monday we taught the Plan of Salvation. I played the violin for them and then helped distract the littlest kids while Hna Piedade and Hna Benítez taught the lesson. Leonardo (8) was so cute because he also helped them try to be reverent. It reminded me of watching my brothers or Kevin help when sharah was little(r).
Well, I better go...Iḿ sending a letter this week. Thanks for the prayers and the support. I find out this weekend if I get to stay in Leganes for my last transfer. Please oh please!!!!
I Love you

Tansfer 11, Week 5 Leganes
July 27, 2011
Dear Dad,
Thanks for the email. I am sorry to hear about the accidents in Lovelock. That is really sad. I know you are always careful. I read in the Bible the other day that God knows the minutes of our lives. That is reassuring.
I love to hear about the Beautiful sunrise in Fallon. That is really one of the most beautiful things about Fallon. I used to ride my bike to the canal and read the scriptures the last summer I was home. (I had a hard time concentrating unless I left) Those were some very cool moments.
I really like the 10 minute, 10 month, and 10 year plan. I think it would help us all feel less guilty because it weeds out the small stuff. I am going to use that!
Dear Mom,
So great that you guys can support Kaden at his baptism. I think I still remember the people that were at mine...all the Fallon family and also Grandpa and Grandma Moulton. very great moment...but I still cant believe he is eight years old!!!!
The rooster problem sounds exciting. I hope it is still alive in a few months.
I am praying for Mikayla...hope things work out for her...what I pain literally and in all other ways.
That is cool that Sharah saw the missionaries at her soccer practice. I know I am going to see them a lot when I am home...they wont be able to get rid of me!!! About violin....I would love to teach her...and since it will only be a few months she wont loose steam with me...change will help he stay pumped about it. I played in two baptisms this week and I am going to play at Zone conference this week. I love it so much. It brings the Spirit quicker than anything else. I'm not nervous to play in front of people anymore :) I am so so so grateful to you and Dad for giving me this opportunity and sticking with it even when i didn't want to practice.
We continue looking for investigators... pray for us...we need it. However we have a family that makes it all worth it. Santiago and Belén are 25 and have four cute kids. They read 3 Nephi 11 just like we asked them to and we felt the Spirit a ton with them in the last lesson. We also have an awesome young woman, Selene, but she is on vacation this week. We think there will be miracles with these people...all from Ecuador woot woot.
About Judith...she texted us that she didnt want to recieve anymore lessons but she came to the ward activity this week so we see that there is still a chance with her :)
Love you all!!!
