Sun! - 4 Feb 2016

We had lots of sun this week and as burned as I am, I LOVE IT. I work so much better when we have sun and not rain. I hate rain. hahaha. 
We busted our butts doing contacts everyday this week. Unfortunately we didn´t seem to have alot of success. So we have another full week of the same thing. 
I really feel like nothing new happened this week. oh. I ATE SUSHI!! HAHHA After a year of only beans and rice and chicken....sushi was heaven!!! Seriously!! I loved it.
Honestly this week has been a little hard. I have been feeling like the weight of the work is on my shoulders and if I don´t do everything right, our area just starts to fall apart. This area is so great, but the branch is struggling. As missionaries sometimes we feel like we have to fix everything so I know I have put alot of pressure on myself to fix everyone. Its hard when you can see the potencial of others, but they can´t see it themselves.
I am excited to start a new month. January flew by so fast!!! I just want to work my butt off. LITERALLY
I love you all so much. Have a great week!

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...

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. But I know that the lord is testing everything that i have learning the the past few months to see if i can apply everything that i have learned. and it is hard, but i know it will all be worth it.  i love you all hugs!! sister jacobson

Transfers Again - 25 Jan 2016

Well I will be staying here in Guarabira one more transfer with my comp Sister Lins. I am happy and at the same time I am just praying to believe there exist people in this little city that I haven´t talked to. But Presidente has given me a bit of advice about what to do in the area to help them grow and the member stay strong, so I am excited that he trusts me enough to get this work done.  We had a great week. The only thing really was hard this week was all the rain, again. It has just been gloomy gloomy gloomy and as much as the sun is hot, I LOVE IT. I am sooooo much happier with sun. I will be burned to a crisp, yes, but i am happy. And when I am happy we work harder. This week also I think just because I hit my one year mark, my body knows, just knows it will have the chance to rest a bit soon. Just like Sunday nights, my body always knows that tomorrow is Pday! So I have been feeling all sorts of aches and pains that I didnt know existed, but its all apart of getti...
