Brock Jolley Spain Barcelona Mission 2022-2024

Cómo estáis? Espero que haya tenido una excelente semana. Okay so this week was pretty awesome, it went by wayyyy too fast so I'll try to remember some of things that we got going on. First, we talk to a lot of people which is awesome. Elder Simmons and I have a really good area and it's on an upswing. It's pretty awesome. I don't know how it's possible but the mission just gets better and better. We have tons of friends progressing and we've seen lots of success this week, we just feel very blessed to be here. I think that's just about it, nothing new or crazy happened, we just had a good week!!  Pensamiento Espiritual: In my personal study I'm creating a document of how to be a missionary unto Ammon, it's really fun so I'll let you guys know when I've finished it. But I've still been going through a talk or two a day from General Conference and "Have I truly been forgiven" and "The Lord Jesus Christ Teaches Us To Minister...

Klk?! Hope you are all doing amazing as always, it's been a whirlwind of a  week  but it's been so good I'll try to break it down real fast! So I'm now serving in Badalona, it's right next to Barcelona, and it's awesome. It's known as the sketchy part, but it's honestly awesome. The ward members are amazing and ready to help us out with the work! We have a good group of friends here so we're just working on making sure we help them progress while also trying to stay on the grind. But Elder Simmons and I get along really well! He's a hard worker and we have fun contacting so it's been a blast. Just know that things are great over here and the work is moving forward!  Milagritos!! Okay so I want to share an amazing experience that we had this  week . So Elder Simmons and I were doing contacts and calling people trying to set up some lessons for later before a lesson started. Suddenly the lesson canceled so we started doing our backup plan when ...

Ostras! Okay so in Spain Ostras literally means oysters, but you use it kind of like a "My goodness" o "Madre Miaaa" This past week was honestly amazing and full of miracles. Our area in Barcelona is amazing but does have its set of challenges. It's very touristy which is amazing. But at the same time it's hard to find people to teach in our area because most of them live in other areas or on vacation. But it's all good cause we send lots of references. I had a fun intercambio with Elder Page this week! We just worked, taught a few lessons in the street, and had some good lessons. To cap off the night we had a wonderful devotional with all the missionaries in Spain and we learned about the Holy Week and everything leading up to Easter. ALSOOO we had a wonderful weekend of General Conference and we learned so much. I will definitely be squishing my water bottles from now on ajaja. But I actually still have to watch a lot because of the time difference I h...
