Everything is swell over here in Catarroja! The work is a little slow but it's ok cause we keep trying. This isn't our work, its God's and he has a plan.
Nothing too crazy happened here this week. Just lots of trying to find new people and lots of heat. We had a little scare with our ac and I literally thought that this would be the end... this is how I die... but it's ok! Its working now!
This week I had the opportunity to eat with this lady in our ward and she is famous for her paella. She brought that pan out and it was almost as big as the table and madre mía that paella was perfecto!! Ya I'll probably have dreams about that paella.
This week I've been struggling to talk to people, it's scary. I've been praying for the strength and courage to just do it! I was on a bus and there was a man sitting across from me and I felt like I should talk to him. I was rehearsing in my head what I should say for about 5 minutes when he asks us if we speak English. We said we did and he started talking to us in English and talking about his life. He was super kind and lives in Catarroja too! We told him that if he ever
wanted to practice his English we give free English classes. He was so excited and said he would love that and he would bring his son too! This experience showed me that its gonna be ok. I just need to talk to people, I won't die. Ive been practicing more and yesterday I talked to a bunch of people by myself and it was good, nothing horrible happend! People were kind even when telling us they didn't want to hear us. I know that as we do the hard and sometimes scary things that God asks of us, it will become less scary and be a really good learning experience.
I'm praying for all of you! Please keep me and the people of España in your prayers!
Love you all! Adios, Chao, nos vemos!
