Let every creature go for broke and sing....

Typical bench in Spain - Buzon (mailbox) where all our letters get mailed home!  Yay!


Hello familia.  

It´s Thursday. I´m sorry.  I didn´t really get time to email yesterday and honestly I only have about 10 minutes today, so it´ll be a shorty I suppose.

This last week has been good.  We had Stake Conference on Sunday and they talked a lot about EFY that happened here in Madarid this last summer and how important it is to continue living it.  The coolest was at the end a bunch of the jovens that went all sang the EFY medley in Spanish.  Just as spiritual as ever. Ugh. I love the medley so much.  It really is so important to continue living the spiritual things after.  Sometimes we have these awesome moments when we feel the spirit so strong but then we get all wrapped up in the things of this life that they get toned down or maybe even forgotten about.  It´s one reason why a journal is so important, so we can go back and remember those important moments. 

Salamanca Spain -delivering to the missionaries.
Today we took a road trip to Salamanca.  It was sweet. We also stopped at Ávila on our way back.  There were a lot of things in the office that needed to be delivered to them and Hermana Ovard, who is in charge of the pedidos en la misión asked one day in the office "How in the world are we going to get all this stuff to Salamanca?" Well, Elder Woodbury and I had already been wanting to go up there since we have a car but it´s outside of our zone and like a 2 and a half hour drive, so we had kind of counted it out.  But at that moment we were like yeah we´ll just take it to them! And president was ok with it, so we did it.  Boom.  Salamanca trip.  Ávila was actually cooler.  Google picture that stuff.  It was sweet. 

That´s all for this week.  Sorry. I´m sure you all understand and love me still. If not, I´ll fight to earn it back.  Love you all!

Love,
Elder Jeppson

P.S. On Monday, I bought a pack of Pokémon cards.  Ahhhh yeah!!!!
