Dear Family, It´s wonderful to hear from you all today and hear that all is well. All things are well here in Barcelona and it seems that someone has turned on the rain (finally) here in Spain. It´s been raining almost non-stop for the past 3 days, which I love, but my feet are getting kind of cold since it´s also kind of chilly outside =/ though, I imagine, nowhere near as cold as Michigan or Idaho right now :D! [Weston always has loved the rain!] Things continue to progress in Cornellà, but ever since we've arrived here the outset has been a challenging one. I want to have a successful last transfer, so I'm going to dedicate my time to finding those people who are preparing and are ready to hear our message. It won´t be easy but it will be ever so worth it. I just have to remind myself about those three weeks that I turned down to stay out here. I know that God will be at my side at all time if I focus my time and energy on the right things and that this will become my favorite part of the mission! This last week we had an intercombio (exchange) and it was a good switch up and a good new boost of energy to go and work! I´m pumped for this week too, because we do have tons of great leads and people that we are finally going to visit! I was also looking at the calender yesterday and then I realized ´´TODAY´S DANIEL´S BIRTHDAY!!!!´´ so that got me really excited and I hope that you had a great Sweedish-Day! Mission birthday´s can be so fun so I hope that you got a good one! Now to end my words, I would like to quote what Amulek tells us in Alma 13, who said ´´...and now, my brethren, I wish from the inmost part of my heart, yea, with great anxiety even unto pain, that ye would hearken unto my words..´´ and know that I love you! Here's a link to that chapter! http://www.lds.org/scriptures/bofm/alma/13?lang=eng -- Élder Xander Weston Schindler PS We have to go back, Kate...
