i am glad God speaks Spanish because thats the easiest language for me to pray in. When I met Elder Holland we only told him our name and where we were from. Then he said something to each missionary but to me he said (I am glad to have you here) or something like that. But during the meeting he explained that was his interview for everyone because he just wanted to look in our eyes. He than said he was super proud of us and that this is one of the most obedient missions he has ever seen and one of the best groups of missionaries. Then he talked about how mad he gets when the interviews turn out different and his wife (runs out the door) he said and then he said that she's like (I dont know that man i have never seen him in my life) haha it was funny. Then he started getting fired up and talked about return missionaries that are inactive and told us that is the worst thing he has ever seen. He also told us not to worry about numbers and explained how the Prophet Abinidi only converted one person (alma) but it turned out alma converted thousands. Its crazy though that he had like at least 7 devotionals while he was here and he didn't use notes for a single one he just talked and the only thing he read from was his scriptures.
My Companion and I are doing fine and have two baptisms this week and three more for march. The three for march is a dad and two kids, the mom is less active and the kids are (13,11,6,3).
I am reading the scriptures in Spanish cause i finished english twice and I bold anywhere it mentions god or jesus or similar names. I marked a lot of scriptures and everything. I like where it describes captain moroni around alma 40 ish and says what would happen if everyone was like him.
Love
Elder Roney
