Santiago Bernabeú Stadium

Hey,

We had another good week here in B6. We had intercambios with the APs on Wednesday, so that was fun to change it up. It's our only intercambio where we work in someone else's area. I was with Elder Maxwell this time. We had a few appointments, got Chinese food for lunch, and we contacted a bunch in the street.

Juan is doing super well. We have taught him almost everything now. His baptism is looking pretty sure for this weekend so that will be awesome. He is really excited for it. We're still working with Milagros, but she's been hard to meet with lately. She got a second job.

In my other areas it's been super hard to get people to come to a one-time soccer activity. The most we ever have is like 10 people. We just started inviting members to do our morning exercise with us by playing soccer at 7am, and we already had a bigger turnout. We have been doing it all week and we have 10-12 people coming. It's pretty nice to wakeup and go play soccer with a bunch of Spaniards everyday.

Our Family Home Evening activity we do in the church every week was tons of fun this week. We had a little competition with Santi, our ward mission leader. If we got 40 people there (we had 8 last week) we could fill balloons with anything we want and throw them at him, but if we got less he throws balloons at us. Luckily, we had exactly 40 people come so we will be filling balloons with eggs and flan soon. It was a good activity though. There was a good message shared and then we played volleyball in the gym. We also made a ton of brownies.

Today we're going to the Santiago Bernabeu! It's Real Madrid's stadium. I'm super excited. We're gonna do the tour. I'll make sure to take tons of pictures. Sorry for the lame email. It doesn't feel like it was a boring week, but as I look back to write about it I'm drawing a blank.

Love you,

Elder Johnson
