Week 14 in Hospitalet

Hello everyone!!!
 
How is everyone back there in the fantastic United States of America!!! I hope everyone realizes how blessed you all are to live in the United States. I love it and miss it soooo much!!! There are so many things that we take for granted there! Make sure to thank Heavenly Father for living there, everyday!!!
 
Anyways...things here are good. We had zone conference this last Friday that was just fantastic. It was very uplifting and motivating. We are also getting a new mission president on Friday this week. We are all so nervous! But we have heard really good things about the new President and his wife. Incoming is President and Sister Pace. It is really sad to see the Hinckley´s go home...but they have been here away from their family for 3 years and are ready to get back to them I think. The Hinckley´s really have been such incredible mission president´s. President and Hermana Hinckley are really incredibly inspired and give us lots of needed guidance, correction, and encouragement. 
 
This week was another hard week for us. The new people that we found to teach last week have had lots of things come up and they have bailed on us, and we are still struggling to find some more new people. But I know we will. We have been trying to visit everyone in the ward to both get to know them and invite them to think of people that they could introduce to the Gospel, and it doesn´t have seemed to produce much fruit yet but we know it will as they continue to pray to have missionary experiences. 
 
A hard thing for Hermana Stephenson and I as a companionship is that we are both still fairly new in the mission. She has only been here one transfer longer than me...and language is definitely our barrier right now. It is just hard to get the specific details of things right now because we aren´t incredible in the language yet...but I know that it will get better as well...time will fix a lot of things. 
 
It is incredibly hot here in Barcelona right now and has been for days on end...and apparently we aren´t even into the heat of it yet!!! I am definitely not looking forward to more heat. Maybe I will get transferred up north at the end of this transfer and then won´t have to deal with the heat so much. We will see. Anyways...things are good, but I hope that I will have an incredible story to tell you all next Monday!
Wish us luck with the adjustment of a new mission president and pray that he will be able to jump right into those shoes of President Hinckley´s without any trouble. 
 
I love you all so much! Have an incredible week!!!
 
Love,
Hermana Eyre
