  • Introduction to Mission Emails

    I served as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints between May 2016 and May 2018. I was assigned to serve in the Spain Málaga Mission. Never heard of Málaga?

  • Ángel

    Email 7/5/18 Hello everybody, This week was a busy one. As normal, each individual day seemed to go on forever, but the week has finished in the twinkle of an eye. Monday was a chill Sanlúcar preparation day. In the evening, we had a Noche de Hogar with Frank and Ana Belén. Frank gave a…

  • Classic

    Hello everybody, My, my, my. Time surely does pass. On Monday, we had our classic Noche de Hogar with Ángel and Yessenia and Aurora and Domingo and Antonio.

  • Somos en uno bueno camino

    Email 23/4/18 Hello everybody, Let us travel back in time to last Monday, when I was sitting on this same couch, also writing my weekly email. I had no idea what I would be expecting to happen during another week in Sanlúcar de Barrameda. Oh wait, I have been here for 33 weeks, so I knew…

  • Still tirando paradelante

    Email 16/4/18 This was more or less an average to mediocre week. It all started, like most weeks do, on Monday. We had an exciting Noche de Mike that ended up being a lesson on the Word of Wisdom. Mike is a slow learner, but he’s definitely learning. On Tuesday, we had a fun visit with Bibi.…

  • More or less the same but a bit different

    Okay. This week was transfer week. I, not surprisingly, am still here in Sanlúcar de Barrameda for my sixth and final transfer. Who is not still here is Elder Clark. He was transferred to Cartagena. It was sad to see him ago, because in addition to us being together for three transfers, he was also…

  • Sixth’s Time the Charm

    Email 2/4/18 Hello everybody, “…Truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come” (D&C 93:24). Our Heavenly Father is a “…God of truth, and canst not lie” (Ether 3:12). The Church of Christ is “built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets” (Ephesians 2:20). The Lord has…

  • #SiempreAhí

    Email 25/4/18 Hello everybody, This is approximately my 30th week in and email from Sanlúcar de Barrameda. If all of my emails have been the same, that’s only a representation of real life. Monday was a fun preparation day. We did all of the things that we normally do, namely, play Fútbol, eat out, play chess, and…

  • I fear no man

    Email 19/3/18 Hello everybody, Well, well, well. We live in a Piso in the centro of the city, in a building with about 10 apartments total. We are the only tenants which live here full time as the other pisos are either summer homes or up for sale. Normally it’s very nice because we basically have…
