Hiiii everyone!! 
I hope that everyones week went well !!


WEEKLY LIGHTS:
- getting to know lots of members this week!
- having family home evening (where the family invited a friend !) yesterday and eating pastel !! (It's like a fried empenada filled with whatever you want. It's amaizing)
- having district council !
-rain. SO MUCH RAIN. 
- helping our recent convert Gwineth stop drinking coffee using cervada! Which means we had to learn how to make cervada. ( which is a hot drink made from barley. I actually think I would like it. IF IT WASNT 90 DEGREES HERE EVERY DAY.)
- said see ya later to Sister Leite who is leaving for her mission today !!! 
- eating a HUGE granny Smith apple in the rain #gottalovebrasil
- feeling God's hand LITERALLY PUSH ME into someone's house 


SPIRITUAL MOMENT: 
Our president gave us a challenge last transfer to read the talk Missionary Work and the Atonement, by Elder Holland. It is such a great tall and I want all of you to read it. Especially you that have served, are serving, or are planning to serve! 
And then let me know what you thought afterwards! 
(I linked it below!!)

KACHOW MOMENT:
So we were visiting some members and I felt that we needed to visit this one family but I couldn't find their names on our app to put them in the schedule. So I put their grandma's name in place of it. When we got there, we looked EVERYWHERE FOR THEIR RECORDS. And we still haven't found it. So they have been "members" for years, but their records got lost. So we are working with them to get baptized and go to the temple!! (THIS WAS THE HOUSE THAT GOD PUSHED ME IN THE DOOR) 


Things to pray for: 
- Gabe and his recovery ! 
- Brenda and her mom
- Ayrton ! 

Hope your week is great !! 

Love youuuuu 

God loves you and so do I!

João Amorim, 429 Centro 58013-310 João Pessoa - PB Brazil SUBJECT EXPLANATION:  We were walking one night to the church on a road that we've walked plenty of times before and out of nowhere, my companion gets nailed in the head with a rock. Like a full on pedra. Yeah, it was some drugged lady who threw it. #prayforher Sister Facchini is fine and wasn't hurt but it was kinda cool not gonna lie. I'm serious she's fine, she laughed about it immediately after.  WEEKLY LIGHTS:  - Miguel e Vitoria were interviewed for baptism! But they have kinda lost the desire to be baptized. They are 13 and 11 years old but they have the spiritual maturity of 75 year Olds. Please pray for them!! - our friend Jane came to church with us!! She really enjoyed it and the members ...

How has everyone's week been?!  My subject line is kindly brought to you by Elder Van Tassel and my quote book.  This week's spiritual thought is brought to you by my own stubbornness and President M. Russel Ballard.  Flashback to before I got my mission call. I was so excited to go and serve! I had a sure feeling that I was going to South America, you could ask anyone, I knew I was going to South America. However, I thought I would be Spanish speaking. I had a background in Spanish and am minoring in it at school and overall just love the language. Then I got called to the only country in South America that doesn't speak Spanish. I was in shock for a while which ...
