Hello ya'll! And a happy New Year!
This week was slow but progressive and that's all we want!
Haha any sort of progress is good! Amaral has been amazing these past two
weeks. He's been bringing family to church activities and sends us messages
every once in a while asking if we need help teaching or to say that he
absolutely loves his new life as a member of the Church. He humbly received the
priesthood on Sunday and is preparing to help with the baptism of his cousin,
Jenny. It has been so rewarding to see him take this new life in a stride!
New years eve was so much fun! We met with a lot of members
and the whole world was going crazy with Quisomba (African music) and banging
pots and pans. We actually stayed out until 10pm since our president didn't
request that we return home early so we saw all sorts of crazy things! I think
the best part is we were walking home and something smelled kinda funny. Our
whole area smells strange but it smelled like food and burning plastic. We
rounded a corner and there was this big trash can that was on fire with
firefighters trying to put it out. We sat and watched the barbecue for a bit
before heading home.
Fabiana was finally marked for baptism! Should be towards
the end of January! She's progressing so well. When I was 14 I didn't have a
clue of what was going on with religion but she's definitely a special soul.
She loves that activities and other youth in the ward.
Love all of you!
