Last year we spent Thanksgiving week doing a mission tour with Elder Kopischke. As we were walking into the Valencia chapel on Thanksgiving morning, Elder Kopischke turned over to us and asked, "Is today the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States?" We had a spiritual feast and a wonderful Thanksgiving!
This year we were in Barcelona with no conflicting meetings, so together with the couples put on a real Thanksgiving dinner. The Deweys (who work of the U.S. State Department) provided canned cranberry, the couples cooked up wonderful dressing, potatoes, gravy, sweet potato pie, the works! With the help of the invaluable Carolina, Hna. Hinckley ordered and cooked a 10 kilo turkey from the local poultry shop in the neighborhood mercat, and the feast was complete!

We have much to be thankful for this year - 4 great couples and 92 wonderful young missionaries, hundreds of new converts, and daily miracles! Happy Thanksgiving from the Spain Barcelona Mission!
