White Girl Problems - 19 Oct 2015

This week was great. So busy. Ever so busy. But I have just two stories to share to sum up my life here in Brasil as an American. 
First, we were in the house of some recent converts and one woman was trying to get my attention, but I was talking with another person. I could hear her trying to talk to me, but was really focused on this other man. So out of the blue she yells, ´´IRMA BRANCA´´ (white sister!) hahaha Everyone stopped and just laughed. #storyofmylife
Another funny thing was that we were in the house of a investigator, Luis. We were watching the Restoration video with him when his father walked in and was watching a little bit too. The spirit was super strong and I really thought he was paying close attention, when out of the blue he says, ´´AAHHHH ITS YOUR FAMILY. NO WONDER THEY ARE ALL WHITE`` . Oh my goodness i just burst up laughing. Only in Brasil do they think we are all one big white family. It was funny. 
Sorry I don´t have any pictures again. I didn´t buy a new memory card yet. But this week I will. I did buy a new dress though because i am sick. and. tired. of my clothes. Oh my goodness. 
I hope that you are all doing well. I miss and love you all. Daniel i am so excited for you! You will be a great missionary. 

much love, Sister Jacobson

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

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...
