The key to The heart is in the food

Hello all,

I feel like I am on a train way to much for healthy living. This is
the 10 time in the past month I've gone from Sevilla to Malaga and I
have come to feel a great love for the wright brothers and their
contribution to modern travel. The worst part is that half of the
seats face forward and half of the seats face backwards...so there is
a good 50 percent chance you are going to feel sick. The odds were not
in my favor this time around. I guess I can't really complain about 4
hours touring the beautiful Spanish countryside.

This week has been super awesome, other than the fact that the special
McDonald's deal of 2 burgers, fries, drink, and an ice cream cone for
3.90 ended (don't worry, we took full advantage). We lost contact with
a lot of the people we were teaching, but were able to find some more.
At one point, we knocked on a door and this old little grandma opened
up. Not going to lie, we were not too optimistic about the result of
this encounter, but we talked a little and asked where she was from.
She told us she was actually from Honduras. Luckily, my brother in law
finally sent me an email about where he lived when he served there and
his favorite foods (the key to any Latin American heart is praising
their foods) so I quickly named off like 10 typical dishes and she
invited us in to her home (see!). We found ourselves with her and her
3 grandkids who were all super excited to listen to us. To be
continued....

My companion and I were able to give the class this Sunday in the
gospel principles class and it was a real blessing. During the class,
I began to think about the phrases that have most changed the course
of humanity. If I had to think of the first, it would easily be "He
lives", words which give us the hope of forgiveness and a new life
through Jesus Christ, which tell us that he is in fact our Savior and
the son of God. The second most world changing phrase then would be "
I saw a pillar of light..." Words which tell us that the heavens are
indeed open today, that every single solitary child of God on this
earth can and will receive and answer to his or her prayers if offered
with real intent, and words which testify of prophetic guidance for
the world today. With a testimony of those two phrases, I truly feel
that all other questions, concerns, doubts or hardships can be
resolved or overcome.

I hope you all have a great week!

Love,

Elder Jenkins
