another week here in brazil!

Hello Friends and Family!!

This week was good, the start of the week was slow becuase we had to go back to Natal. While we were in Natal, I saw rain like I have never seen before. Here in brazil it doesnt just rain, it pours. Also, we went and met with this family who was in the ward Moraes served in. It was so cute cause their little two year old daughter said my name "siter na-na-des" haha it was so cute!!

When we got back to Caico, it was HOT. some of the hottest days that we have had here. and we had to work hard cause we missed 3 days while we were in Natal. We got a referance from the Elders of this boy named Rikson, we went to his house and he was really excited about the church and we taught him about the book of mormon and he said he would read it. His mom was also there and we talked to her for a while too, she was a world travler, she has seriously been everywere. and when she visited the USA she visited vegas, haha! She asked if I would help her learn more english, so we told her when we visit their house I would also teach a little bit of english haha. Wish me luck! :)

Pedro came to church again, he is also reading the book of mormon, and when he is in church he seriously knows everyone, he is having a hard time cause he wants to come to our church but also his. And so we have been teaching him slow, he just recently broke up with his "wife" (they arent married but lived together for like 20 years) and so we have been helping him with that.

Also we are teaching those cousins I told you about last week. This week we taugh about the plan of salvation, and it was cool to teach about familes being together forever. Their grandpa recently died and so when we told them that they would see their grandpa again and that there if life after death they were SO excited. I love them so much! 

Also, this week was fast sunday, so we were fasting and then went to a house to an investogator and it was funny cause they kept trying to feed us, and we would say "no thank you" and then keep talking then she just started serving up ice cream and handed it to us and almost force fed us the ice cream. After we left the house we laughed so hard cause we tried but they would let us. My comp said that is super normal bcuase everyone just wants to feed us. haha.

Things are good here, the portuguese is coming, everyday i understand more and more and i am speaking more and more and feeling more comfortable with the language everyday!

I love you all!! read the bom!!
