TRANSFERÊNCIAS ESTA SEMANA!!! now I´m in MOSSORÓ ABENÇOADO!!! it's
so hot here compared to Natal!! The sun is a lot stronger here!! sorry if my
grammar is horrible...I’m forgetting English grammar...I never was really good
at grammar, but now I can´t even speak out loud to see if it sounds right...ha-ha!!
ridiculous!! but yeah this week was transfers...Sister Leal stayed in
Natal...so did Sister Alarcón and Sister Lemos...and I got sent to
MOSSORÓ...about 5 hours North from Natal!! I turned Senior also, so I am
responsible for what we do as a dupla!! a little more responsibility, but I’m
excited to be here in Mossoró! I´m with Sister Lerner...another sister from Rio
Grande do Sul (3rd companion from rio grande do sul of the 4 that I had!)
Cray...you´re week sounded great... that pick
of the Logan temple is sooooo beautiful!!!!!!
Logan Temple
I miss the snow ( I never thought
I would say that!!) but yeah anyway...
I´m here in Mossoró, and I am so excited
to be here...we worked really hard to get people to church this week but in the
end we only had one person...I was a little upset cause we fasted Saturday
until Sunday afternoon so that we could have people in church so that we could
have baptism next week...but everyone was like no I’m sick, or something
happened, or they weren't in casa, oh someone in their family didn’t let them
leave the house.....UGH it was just like you gotta be kidding me!! one lady was
like no you can follow you're path/way/cominho and I will follow my way. I just felt so sad and mad at the same
time!! When we were waiting for the bus to
pick up the people that were going to go to church, I had a prompting to open
and read the Book of Mormon...beeza, I opened up the Book of Mormon and I was flipping
through the pages and I saw a scripture that I already marked and I started to
read...alma 6:6, talking about how we pray and fast for those that haven’t had
the chance to conhecer deus (know God)...something like that!! I was like ha ha ha...Pai
Celestial you´re funny. I almost cried because it was like a smack in my face!
I fast and pray not for me or for my glory to have numbers of the week or
something like that, but it´s for the well being of the children of God that
haven´t had the chance to know the ospe, or know the path they should take to
live with their Heavenly Father again...I was like sorry Pai, I will do better
and be more humble and help those in need that are ready to be helped!!!
It was a learning experience for sure!!! so yeah I´m in Mossoro
1..ala Mossoro (Mossoro ward)...we share the building with another ward, Belo Horizonte (Elder
Harris and Elder Webb)
Oh another funny experience happened! WE received a reference from
our zone leaders (elder andrade and Elder Aguiar) and we were looking for her
building that she lived in....we weren't finding it (this was Sunday night) and
we were asking everyone and no one heard of the residence where she lived!! Sister
Lerner and I said a prayer and we felt that we needed to continue with following
this street in the direction that we were going...the funny thing is is that
this HUGE RAINSTORM WAS COMING AT US!!!! It was like ´WHAT ARE WE DOING`hahah
the sky was PITCH BLACK coming at us with these HUGE clouds and we just started to laugh
cause I was like minha nossa we´re crazy!!! no one was in the street...everyone
was walking towards us running away from the storm and Sister Lerner and I were
walking into the storm...and while we were walking NO one knew where this
residence was!! haha but Sister and I kept looking....about 20/30 minutes
walking in the Pouring rain we asked this lady and homen in the street...and
they were like we don’t know but we will help you find them (new pesquisadores
now hahah) and after about 10 more minutes we found the place she lives!!! Her name is Lucia and em fim we marked baptism dela for 14
of February!
-Amo vocês!!!!
love you
-SISTER TALENTINO
