Katie!
Congratulations! Your VISA is ready for pickup?! That is a huge
blessing- a girl from my MTC district STILL is in the states. I am
really excited for you.
So... this week was stellar! We did a TON of
contacts on the road- always good to talk with a lot of people. And, we
did divisions/ splits with the sister training leaders again. It was
great.
But... of course, the best part of the week was....
Lucas´ baptism! Wahoo! He is 10- and about just the coolest kid in
Brazil. LOVE him! He has wanted to be baptized from the first day we met
him over a month ago. It was great! Yes, this is another friend of
Jaqueline. I seriously am convinced that she is an angel. I LOVE her so
so so much. She brought all of our investigators to church yesterday
too. That is not to say that we are not working- we spent all morning
trying to bring people to church. But it does go to show that this is
the work of the members- they can do missionary work SO much better than
we missionaries can. She is inspiring. I have learned a lot about what
kind of member I want to be when I get home. It makes me sad to think
about how little I did do when I was still home.
Jaqueline just really ``gets it``. Every store she
enters, she invites someone to come to church- every day she is passing
references. Its inhuman. She is an amazing blessing.
Anyways, next week is transfers AGAIN. Dont worry, I dont believe it
either. I have absolutely no idea what will happen because I am pretty
much convinced my mission is João Pessoa Brazil - PROSSIND. I have
doubts that I will ever leave this ward, which is FINE by me- there isnt
a better one in Joao Pessoa. I am so blessed to be here. But, whatever
happens, it should be interesting. Ill let you all know 12/04.
So Thanksgiving is this week. Wahoo! How fun! I hope
you all have great plans. I hope you know how grateful I am for each of
you. Your examples and support. I have the greatest family in the
world. Não tenho dúvidas. I love you guys, and I hope you have a great
week. Eat some pumpkin pie and rolls for me, ok? :)
Sorry this was short, but next week will be exciting, promise:)
Love,
