Math missionary style-x(funny) + y(Preston) + z(unknown)=Busy

What a blessing it has been to have Elder Oliveira here. I´ve already told you that he´s from Brasil but he has lived in Málaga since he was 3. He has such a funny accent when he speaks. It´s not a Brasilian accent, it´s an Andaluz (the southern part of Spain) accent. When he speaks Portuguese, he doesn´t have a Brazilian accent either, he speaks with the Andaluz accent in Portuguese too. He´s learning English, but he´s not that good so we only ever speak Spanish. He is super funny and I know we will have lots of success here. This week has been kind of hard because we were in a trio almost all week because Elder Farah (one of the other missionaries from the branch that lives with us) didn´t get a companion. His companion was the old secretary to President and had to stay to train the new one. But he arrives today so we will be able to focus on our area instead of having to focus on 2 areas. We don´t have any baptismal dates right now, but we are working with a great family from Bolivia that could get baptized any second because they´ve already been to church over 5 times and to a baptism. I personally feel as though the mother is a little scared and so she doesn´t want to get baptized just yet. And the daughters just follow the mom. I have faith that they will be baptized soon. That´s pretty much all the news for this week. Venga. Hasta luego
