Update 2014:)

Time is really flying by for us and for Bryson.  He has been in Spain for almost 8 months now;)  He is doing very well and experiencing all the miracles one would hope for on a mission serving the Lord.  He is in Granada now.  Here is a few quotes from his latest letters:

¡Feliz P-Day Familia! We had a really succussful week with lots of lessons once again. Yesterday in Church almost every companionship had an investigator and a less active in church!! The members had the opportunity to go to the temple this last week and so it was a very spiritual testimony meeting. Micheal (our future baptism) and Unity came to church and i had to translate all the meetings again... :) part way through the testimonies Unity (a recent convert) leaned back and told me to stop translating for a bit.. he said when he first attended sacrament the élders didnt have good enough spanish to translate and so he just had to sit and not understand but he knew it was true because although he couldn´t understand what they were saying he knew it was true.. and wanted Micheal to have the same experience... after a break of translating Micheal leaned over to me and said.. now that i know where the church is im coming every week and asked us to stop by his house later today.. i said of course and wrote it down in my agenda.. as i was writing he looked at my agenda and said.. hey my baptism is this month right? and i said you bet your sweet biscuts big dog :) we have great hopes that everything will go smoothly and he will be born again soon

Buenas Tardes Familia :) 

This week was a really successful week with lots of hard work... the fruits we saw ended up being a surprise baptism :) Micheal Akobe was baptized last night and will be conferred next week in sacrament :) we also had Fransico (Cave man) in church on Sunday! He gave up his food for two days to afford the bus trip to the church from his cave! such a stud!! Also this week as we were waiting for the bus a woman boldly approached us and said hey can i get a book.. haha we were like uhh.. a book of mormon and she said ya you got one on ya.. haha so we gave her a book and asked what she knew about the church she said she was baptized in Colombia and doesn´t like the ward here so she doesn´t go.. we asked if we could visit her and she said we could so hopefully we get her back on track..
