Week 30: Photo Dump

So I finally found and bought the doohickey that allows me to connect my camera to the computer, which means I can finally show the smorgasborg of pictures I've taken here on the mission... (all 5 of them).

Here is the zone of Mauá! I'm not going to name everyone because there's a lot of people and I'm lazy. The Sister next to me is my companion, Sister Melo

Hey Hey, Peanut Butter! (and jelly! and jelly! and jelly!)

Me, Sister Melo, Sister Sivincha, e Sister Arruda

My watch tan! I know everyone was waiting to see how bad it is. Honestly it's worse when the lighting is better

Here's the cute little Plan of Salvation diagram I made. On the back it has all the scriptures references and stuff and I am more than a little proud of it. Sorry the picture's so blurry

Today is transfers and I'm moving again, this time for Santo André. I'll have a new companion and everything and I'm very excited (but I also have to pack everything still so sorry this email is so short).

That's about all the time I have for today, kids. But remember, God made you special, and He loves you very much.

Love y'all!

P.S. Send me some muscle so I can drag my huge suitcase all the way down the stairs in our house, through the train station, and up the stairs in the new house

Week 36: AS AGUAS DO BATISMO

Image
This week the computer I'm using has a really awful keyboard so I'm going to do this in pictures. Enjoy! BATISMO!!! Here we have Kethelynn and Kemmily, who are the cutest girls you've ever met. They're super excited about the gospel and were baptized yesterday! They ate all the cake... but that's okay; it was their special day. We were visiting Kethelynn and Kemmily and they stole my camera and started filming things. I thought I'd take advantage of it so I filmed a video for y'all! The only problem is that it's in Portuguese (and also is really quiet and I'm not sure why). Anyway. Enjoy! Kethelynn made this for me. It means, "Don't let your fears decide for you."   Our zone! Everyone's crazy The world's saddest sight. I'm finally running out of peanut butter. This jar, at least..... Randomness that makes me happy So we have this thing where we challenge pe

Week 8: Eu Não Falo Português.... (muito bem)

So it´s been about two weeks in Brasil now, and boy-oh-boy it´s been a time. A good time, of course, but there have been some things to get used to. Like the language, for example. Fun fact: the people in Brasil speak Portuguese (also the keyboards are slightly different so please forgive any weird punctuation). And not only do they speak Portuguese, but they speak it quickly and about lots of different things using about a billion different words and the´re strung so tightly together that by the time you remember what the first word means they've finished the sentence. I've definitely been learning, though, and now I sometimes actually understand the gist of what people are saying. I have learned some new phrases, though. If you are ever invited to lunch in Brasil, try some of these phrases: Eu não estou com muito fome ~ I am starving* Apenas um poco mais ~ Pile it on, please Desculpa, estou cheia! ~ I haven´t eaten in a week, please give me more food Se eu como um outro

Week 28

Image
So last week I said pretty much everything important, so I thought this week I'd share some pictures. The problem is my camera is a potato and I have yet to figure out how to consistently upload the pictures (and also I always forget to take pictures...) and so I found a few on the mission website and shamelessly stole all the good ones. Maybe one day I'll finally figure out how to post my own, but until then, enjoy these.  So here we have my first companion (Sister Gomes), my second companion (Sister K. Souza), me, a random Sister whom I don't know, my current companion (Sister Melo), and in the front is another American (Sister Anderson) who arrived the same day as me. Here are the two Sisters we're living with, Sister Arruda and Sister Sivincha. Sister Sivincha is from Bolivia (where they speak Spanish) and has a little more than 2 months in the field. Sister Arruda has a year and one month and is from Matto Grosso, Brasil.  Here's the whole miss
