Week 13 in Barcelona

Hello family and friends!
We just had a wonderful week and we are happy and healthy here. It is a little sad not having Hermana Robinson around anymore, but we are doing just great because I absolutely just love Hermana Nakken. I couldn´t have asked for a better last companion in my mission. She is quite new in the mission and when she was visa waiting in Texas for 2 weeks, she wasn´t speaking Spanish at all. She is learning super fast though and is adapting to the unique change that Spain is. We are trying so hard to find some new people to teach because things have not been improving with Edison at all and Victor and Luis are still not quite ready to get married. We are a little short on email time because we are going to go with our Zone to Tibidabo...even though I have already been there...but that is totally fine because it is a really neat place and I want Hermana Nakken to get to know all the wonderful other missionaries in our zone. 
Time is just absolutely flying and I hope that in this last transfer of my mission we can find one or a few more people that we can help to know their Savior better and begin to follow him in their lives. This Gospel is so amazing and brings us such a happiness that it is impossible to explain with words alone. It is only something that can be felt and experienced by actually making the effort to live it and share it with others. 
If nothing else in all the blogposts that I have sent throughout my mission, I hope that you have all come to a better understanding of that....that the Gospel is what brings us happiness and peace in this life, and nothing else can make up for it in our lives. So don´t neglect all the little things like reading your scriptures and praying and going to church....those things are so essential and if you don´t have a testimony of that, try it out for a while and test God...see if they really do make a huge difference in your lives or not. What do you have to lose?
I love you all so much and hope that you have a wonderful Valentine´s day this week and that you are thoroughly enjoying whatever snow you have or will get! 
Love,
Hermana Eyre
