This has probably been the craziest week of my entire life oh my goodness. To start, I went to Barcelona for two days and got to hang out with Hermana Barlow and Hermana Clark! So it was a super happy reunion time for us:)) And I saw the sagrada familia which is like my dream of my mission so ya know, happy times haha

AND THEN I GOT MY CUTE TRAINEE!!!! Her name's Hermana Vance, she's from Utah, and she's the cutest ever. I love her so much. So that's been super fun. Since I'm training, we have 30 extra minutes to study together and I speak a lot of Spanish haha. But I will say, it's been such a blessing that I have had no problems with the language. I understand everything that people tell me and can carry on a conversation without any problem. How fun is that!!!

ALSO MIRACLE OF THE WEEK WAS THE BAPTISM OF ANGELA!!!!!! Her story: She actually contacted the elders on the street and they met with her the first couple of times. And then they realized she lives in our area so we got to teach her! And in our first lesson with her she told us that she was never going to live the law of chastity. And then we lost contact with her for about a month. And then Hermana Clark came and Angela showed back up! We saw her on the street and one of the first things she told us was that she had read the entire Book of Mormon from the last time we met with her till then, and that she was living the law of chastity. That is someone who is SUPER prepared. She's a miracle. She's given up smoking, drinking, everything. She's had a VERY difficult life and was actually diagnosed with cancer recently. But she has so much faith and does what she knows God wants. I love her to death. So that was the happiest thing ever. :))

Also I decided that someone needs to build a panaderia in Utah or something. Really anywhere. But it's a good idea. They're all over Spain and I'm OBSESSED. It's just like a little bakery type thing where you can buy bread, napolitanas (most yummy things ever), and whatever you want. Spain is so good. 

The mission is the greatest thing EVER!!!! I am loving life and my companion and the work and the members and the people we're teaching! Serve missions! and be happy!

I love you all!!
Love,
Hermana Johnson
