WOOOOHOOOO!!! This week was awesome!!! On Tuesday, last week, we finally got our investigator to commit to baptism!!! After 70 years of being a strong Catholic and her son being a member we were the missionaries that were able to help her make the first step towards being an eternal family with her son. I am soooo excited for her to be able to go to the temple and experience all of the wonderful things within! Her name is Terezinha and she was just baptized last Sunday and her son got to baptize her! It really was very very special to watch and experience the spirit that was permeating (English, I still got it) throughout that meeting. This past week a lot happened actually, but that was just the highlight! We also had a black out here in Brazil. 70% of the country! It was super duper scary during the night but nothing bad happened. I just tripped a billion times which wasnt that bad. My companion and I bought a giant box of Açaí which is delicious and I never saw before I came here, but apparently they have it in California. Its super good and like a snow cone kinda...I dont know, but its delicious. Also my "mom" on the mission Sister Oliveira made me a planner which is THE COOLEST planner in this mission! So I took a picture to share. I also came to realize this week that I got my cooking skills from my mom...which was really funny cause I left chicken on the stove for a SUPER long time and it was super dry (thanks mom). Anyway, this week was awesome and seeing the Lord blessing families and me realizing the blessing I have in my family is just about the best thing that I have experienced in my life. It really is a blessing to have been born in the church and I truely do love this gospel and all it offers, especially to families. Also, the Relief Society President made me a Gluten Free cake that was SUPER DUPER good, it was amazing. You're welcome mom for all the pictures <3
Ohhh I forgot!!! General Conference is next week too and I am SUPER Excited to hear the prophet and apostles speak! More than I ever have! Hope everyone has a great week and listens to the modern revelation thats coming this next week!
Love you guys! Tchau
