Gracias a que Él vive

 "Gracias a que Él vive" is a very very special video that the church made for Easter.  I encourage YOU ALL to look up this video.  We have been showing it to a lot of people this week.  Even though Easter is over you still need to watch it!! It is so great. Ah!!
So speaking of Easter, we had a great Easter!!! It first began with croissant french toast that we made together. YUM.  And then for companionship study we watched Finding Faith in Christ video. I loved it.  So since I am in Spain, where the majority of people are Catholics, our week started off with a musical filled street for Palm Sunday.  We could hear all sorts of instruments when we were trying to sleep.  But hey, it's Spain, and Semana Santa.. so it's just how things are. Haha. The week continued with Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, Passover, and Easter Sunday.. but I am actually not sure what exactly their tradition for those are. It was cool though to be in Europe during a very traditional Catholic Holiday.  We had cards with #gracisaqueelvive on it and passed them out while we contacted people this week. Even though we are a different religion,  we still love to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ! :) 

We were so pumped for General Conference!!!  I loved the talks so much!  My companions and I started becoming Future Trunky when the theme was on the Family!! Of course we miss our families back home, but we could help but picture our future families as well!! Easter Sunday, we went to a Spanish member's house and ate dinner with her and watched Conference.  Although it was in Spanish and I didn't really know what was going on, it was a really fun night!

Mission life is still hard but still so great!!!  Watch this video and conference if you haven't yet!!! I know that the words they say are from God and can really help us in our lives!! 

Today for Pday we are going to Madrid!! Yay!!! I am very excited!! Have a great week everyone!!
Love,
Hermana Berry
