Ola Amigos!
The V family got baptized! That is so freaking cool! Haha that absolutley made my day! I am way glad to hear that. I wish I could have been there, but hey, thats alright! Congradulations! They are going to be such an amazing family and influence for the people there!
That is really crazy about the hymn thing at church. cause the EXACT same thing happened in our ward on Sunday! cRazy! [After the organist played the entire first verse, she realized she was on the wrong page.]
I am super pumped about the house windows and such, Send me some fotos! or photos! qualquer um.
This week has been crazy as usual, but I am really starting to have a blast here. Really getting to relax. Elder Guthrie has helped me relax a ton and in turn, I am helping him with getting up and such. Tomorrow we are going to play basketball! He's become a great friend, and we have some good times.
This week our investigators aren't doing so well. I am not sure what we need to do better, but we are trying! But at lunch I shared amessage about the Book of Mormon, and its power in my life. I really felt I should, even though they talked about it during Sunday School and priesthood (taught by the elders quorum president, who we were eating with). But I shared it anyways. And then at the end, the pres asked one of the other guys there, (there were about 6 single adults there Id never met), if he had a Bom. He said no. And that night he said he really wants to be baptized! So we will do that for him!
Maria Do Carmo is amazing. Her and her family are fantastic people! SO strong! She still wants to be baptized on the 9th of april, but she has been reading the Bom every day. She works on Sundays, but its with an odd guy who needs watchin after. So it needs to be done, even on Sunday. SO she asked if she could get three Sundays a month where should could get off early to go to church! SO legit!
