Me with singer at pizza place |
So I just found out that the drought that we
are having is far from over and they only estimate having 6 more months
worth unless they get like a ton of rain every day here soon, so that is
exciting we will see what happens because rain season is going to end
here soon.
This last week was just crazy running all over the place in our area. On Thursday, Wednesday and Friday
we were doing interviews all day. I think that my companion had like 20
interviews total! It threw a wrench in our area but it is awesome that
that many people are getting prepared for baptism. During the interviews
me and the sisters would usually teach the other part of the family or
practice Portuguese. It is really weird teaching with sisters, it just
feels wrong. On Tuesday me and my companion were super sick with the
cold and some bad food. We stayed home for that day in fear of having
something hit when we were out on the street... This stupid cold won´t
go away so that´s super annoying but oh well, such is life. I think we
only taught a total of 5 lessons this last week and one family was just
awesome. They knew we were super busy so they met us in the other area
and we taught them. They were super afraid to get baptized and didn´t
know if it was true and we had like an hour talk and I said listen right
now you may not have a testimony of these things but do you trust us?
They said yes and I promised that it was true and they could just borrow
my testimony for a little while. That didn´t work at all. They said
they knew it was true just didn´t feel like they needed baptism. I
promised them that when they got baptised they would feel it is right
and if they didn´t I would take off my name tag and go home because i
don´t want to serve a false mission. That worked and they both got
baptised. To keep a long story short I am coming home sorry... No just
kidding Suzana said I had to baptise her and after she came out of the
water she was crying. She told me I can stay on my mission!
oh sorry their names are Suzana and Robson. we have been teaching them for about 5 weeks and they are just super cool.
After their baptism they
took us and a member family to a pizza place, man it was so fun and
there was a guy singing there and we asked if he knew any religious
music to play and he said yes. It was just super fun! I got a pic with
the singer at the pizza place and told him thanks, my mom said i needed
to take more pics. He laughed and said tell her, your welcome.

after i took the pic the flash was super bright
so everyone looked over at me a little awkward....

Sunday
I was told that i wasn´t getting transferred but i was getting a new
companion, I was a little sad but also happy. Just about 2 hours ago
today president called and told me I am being transferred. I don´t know
to what area all i know is it is one of them that goes to the ward of
the church mission office building (In Sao Paulo). That is exciting. I am a little
nervous to not be training anymore I feel like I don´t know anything yet
but I guess I will do fine. I just need faith and to keep learning and
practicing.
That´s all for this week.
Love you all!
