November Already - 9 Nov 2015

Christmas is coming and so is the heat. Oh my goodness, i thought it was hot before and now I am dying. We return home exhausted every day mostly because of the sun. But its okay we are drinking lots of water and eating lots of açai :) 

This week was great for one reason. Italon. He is progressing so fast. He told us he wants to serve a mission and I just burst into tears of joy and happiness. Pure joy. He is the best. We had a family night and he just wanted to talk to everyone about his conversion. He is going to go tracting with us this week. Oh I just love him. I have never had a convert like him. If I came to Brasil just to find him, I would be successful. He is just that amazing. Conversion is the greatest miracle. It is even more wonderul than healing the sick or raising the dead. For while a person who is healed will eventually fall sick again and ultimately die, the miracle of conversion can last forever and affect the eternities for the convert as well as for his or her posterity. Whole generations are healed and redeemed from death through the miracle of conversion. 

I love you all so much. Thank you for everything you do for me

Christmas is coming! 


amo você! linda

Almost Forgot - 16 May 2016

Wow I almost logged off without sending anything. Sorry! This week has been good. A little frustrating. I feel like I relate really well to the stories Daniel tells about running to church late with no investigators. There isn´t anything more frustrating.

Sick Days - 30 May 2016

Well apparently I can´t leave Brasil without a few more sick days. hahaha So this week was great and rough.  I started to feel really sick Tuesday night but nope we have to keep working. Of course it started raining so my cold got a little worse. But Wednesday I was pratically sleeping during all the lessons and just not feeling well. Thursday morning we had surprise interviews with Presidente and he just said, ´´is there anything i can do for you other then send you to the hospital?´´ So he sent me to the hospital. The hospital is always a great experience because i really don´t understand medical terms in English so in Portuguese its just funny. But my companion helped me alot. I ended up getting an MRI to look at my sinuses and my lungs and the conclusion of the story is that i had a really bad sinus infection.  I was given a bunch of medicine and set to bed rest. Two days in the house feel like an eternity. I was dying to leave so Saturday and Sunday everything was b...
