Dear meus queridos irmãos!
This week was really rushed, their has been this family going to church forever in our ward but the mom cant baptize cause she isnt married and doenst want to, because her husband is nuts and hates church...he said his church is alcohol and his god is alcohol. haha. but the other elders here have been teaching them forever and have tried to at least baptize the kids for months now. But we went there this week because they are our investigators now and we taught a lesson my comp planned that was sweet and marked a date for this week and baptized her this past saturday! ha. it was pretty cool!
We went to Shirley and she is having some troubles, a stupid pastor talked to dener and stuff, they arent to shaken but we are going to have to completely QUEIMAR some of the ideas that have been put in her head about church...we will do it with love. She was wondering if you could send clothes for dafine...she has 4 years, but idk if any of bellas clothes would fit her. she said she would pay up to 100 reis...about 40 45 dollars i think. because stuff is expensive here. i told her maybe it wouldnt be worth the price but i would check.
oh man....645... and so it begins.. ha
The other young man that was preparing for a mission that was in a coma died saturday night. So things have been a little rough for the stake here.
I got chills when reading jakes talk. i used to work out like crazy to that speech. ha. i bet his talk was bomb!
Jake? a perfect kid? hasnt he always been? ha. i cant beleive hes freakin driving everywhere...PLEASE BE SMART! ha.
Ha. Sometimes I dont feel like im changing at all, but idk. i feel the same, just more stressed and tired all the time! ha
But i have had many wonderful experiences of seeing peoples lives change and seeing the lord strengthen me and carry me through every day, like when i was working at the valley in the mornings...he carried my body there every day!
Thats sweet they are geting ready to head down to utah. im sure they will love it there! dang. he got buff fast. ha. Confession-i had a dream last night that him and i were going to the valley to work out, and i was way small but, it was tight...i was so pumped. ha
Im so stoked for lex!!! Shes doing so many cool things! give her a heads up...cam asked me for her email because he has a bud that has "questions about uvu" ha.
OH! my camera charger broke... im only able to send a picture because the lan house has a adaptor for the memory card. my battery on my camera is slowly dying.
im not sure how general conference will be, i know they showeda recording of the womens session yesterday. but IM SO PUMPED! i cant beleive its already GC again!
We actually didnt get a ton of rain like i hoped...they have actually got a lot less rain this year and people are suffering a bit because of it. Nelsons daughter told me that she saw on the news that washington got a ton of rain, but idk. its funny how much they show stuff of the US here on the news.
Thanks for your prayers! its keeping me going.
I love you guys. Miss ya a bunch!
