The Ourense branch had a Pioneer party February 27, the same night that a Hurricane hit Spain and France. Here's what Nick said: "it was super fun. we watched the work and the glory, played bobbing for apples.. thats awesome, and a few other random games and also that night there was a hurricane warning so we were not allowed to leave the capilla untill like 9:30 so it was a blast and the members loved it. i really love the people in this branch they are so much fun and so caring and great."
