Hey ya´ll! This week was pretty darn fun. I think it was a little more fun because we actually have investigators progressing towards baptism! A few weeks ago Elder Cranford and I went to visit an investigating family just to check up on them and see if they were reading. We couldn´t go inside though because only the little boy was home. So I told Elder Cranford "well lets just knock the whole building." So we took the elevator up to the eleventh floor and started to knock the doors. Just so everybody knows, knocking doors almost never turns out with success here in Spain but we decided to give it a shot. And guess what happened? Success. On the eleventh floor a dominican woman invited us in after we had introduced ourselves but we couldn´t because there wasn´t a man in the house. So we made a return appointment and decided to come back. As of now we have visited with them 4 or 5 times and they love it! They even invited us to eat with them last week and it was delicious. She made hamburgers and ribs and it was rediculously good. Its been awhile for sure. I could tell she was so happy to serve us and it made me feel really good. Its hard to find happy people these days. The only problem is she can´t come to church because she works and she really wants to come. I hope things work out and she can somehow change her schedule. She told us she wants to be baptized! I am really praying this one goes through. This week was also fun because elder Cranford and I got to attend the ward activity. We had to wear our proselyting clothes, but it was still fun. We brought an american football with us to show them what it was all about. The little kids all ran to the bottom of the hill and told me to throw it as high as I could. When I threw it they all said "Whoooaaaaa!!". Haha it was really funny. They aren´t used to seeing people throw things. They kick em here haha. I also forgot to tell you all that Gina moved back to Colombia. Before she left, she gave Elder Cranford and I a bracelet with the Colombian flag colors. I hope she does well over there. Well thats about it for the week. The weather is up and down. About two weeks ago my shoes filled with water it rained so hard and every once in awhile it gets hot again. I just want it to stay cool! But I love it here. I love this mission and I love you all. You mean so much to me. I hope you have a great week! Love Elder Langston
