Week 86 - Easter

It was a pretty great Easter. Up front, tell everyone that nothing has happened at all in Spain thanks to what happened in Brussels. It was actually funny to get an email from a concerned mom in Utah, wondering what we were doing to protect the Missionaries. I had no idea how to respond - "Uh... nothing? They don´t actually know about it yet, and.... " I don´t know, maybe that makes me a bad oficinista, but I figured most important was that we keep on working. 

Easter was a very nice Sacrament. I´ve been translating for the Packs and the Youngs, and so I don´t get as much out of them as I used to, but it was still very nice. I was able to do a lot of thinking, and I felt the spirit very strong. I don´t think because there´s anything magical about the date (something you have to clear up when talking to anyone religious in Spain) but because, thanks to the date, I put focus in receiving revelation and committing to act on it. If I could have that strong of an experience every week, it would mean a lot for my spiritual growth. Personal goal. 

I´ll be writing more on Wednesday - P day had to get split into two parts this week thanks to Customs, the Temple, and our weekly Office planning meeting. Today we went to IKEA and got a companions eyes checked. Good day. Good Easter. The church is true.
