This week was another crazy week; I’m starting to get worn
out. . . .
This week I did splits for 5 days in a row with different missionaries and different
areas to help those who haven’t baptized in a while. on Tuesday i was in
G(a small city about 40 minutes away), Wednesday in P (another ward
in the city), Thursday in the ward in the center of the city, Friday back in
P to work with the other missionary there, and then Saturday I
spent a total of 6 hours on a bus going back and forth to do a baptismal
interview in the city of O. Crazy.
To top all that off Saturday night I got bit like 5 times by a mosquito, but there is one certain species that I’m like allergic two so when it bites my I swell up really bad. Sunday I spent the whole day with my right eye swollen shut. Oh the wonders of Brasil. The most annoying part is that the people here love the missionaries so much that I had to explain to everyone in the ward that I was fine and didn’t need any more Meds and nobody beat me up.
Anyway, I’m excited for this week to get a good week of work done in my own area, we have been teaching a woman that was going to get baptized this week but a pastor started visiting her and telling her a bunch of lies about the Book of Mórmon. So we gotta clean that up this week.
I’m glad that you all are melting in the heat over there; you can feel how I felt at Christmastime hahaha.
The mission is great, I’m learning so much about how to deal with all kinds of people and all kinds of situations, and above all about simply that the Church is true, there is no other explanation. I’ve seen too many people receive answers to prayers, it´s just not possible that it´s not true.
Love you all!
Stay healthy and happy!
