I know I havent written in a long time and I apologize. Things have been extremely demanding on me and have had a few health problems but all is well. Brazil is crazy! In both ways! Best thing thus far..chocolate pizza!! and, Corn flavored Ice Cream. Weird, I know but super good! Its hot. Our washing machine broke. Lots of strange things happen everyday. Like the gigantic beetle in church. HUGE!! There are some sweet thunderstorms! Just lots of strange things. A miracle happened. Ive seen a few. But this one in particular...Maria and Leonice have been going to church for 10ish years. The missionaries have been visiting them for that long as well. But, they cant stop smoking and drinking coffee. My first day here, I invited them to be baptized and they accepted. They continued in their bad habits but one week before, they just stopped. They felt something they never felt before and decided to go cold turkey. They said Im a very big influence in their life and decision. I didnt even know! Their health declined a little bit but were able to be baptized on Saturday!!! They ward is blown away with what happened. I was asked to speak at the baptism. Its strange how I can communicate with these people. Its a whole new world and its slowly starting to not feel like a new world. Awesome, huh? Oh, Scott and Laquesa from Nebraska were married on Valentines day and baptized. Wow. I love them so much! I miss them. I dont have much more to say. Its March already? Strange. Things are...going. Better each new day. I will write next week and let you all know what happened. Thanks for everything. The church is true. It truly is that simple. I love you all!!
Àte Segunda que vem!
Um Abraço,
