Well last monday we had FHE at Carol and Victor house. They are really cool, they have a little baby and both served missions so they love us. He made us tapicoa. I was like oh no i dont do tapicoa but its the flour that makes tapicoa and you sift it and mix it with a little water and salt through it in a frying pan but some ham and cheese in it and cook it. It is so good. It looks like a taco. But it does not taste like tapicoa. I have no clue to explain it hahahah. Then Tuesday we were running late and we literally ran to the bus and just barely made it. We brought oreos for the elders. The Americans were so happy. And the Brazilians were nervous but loved it. They thought we were crazy for dipping it in milk then they tried it and it was rad. It was so funny to watch there faces. We have a new investigator Patricia. She is super strong in the Congreatacao so the doctrine is hard for her to understand that is to bad. We have taught her four times this week and she just isnt ready. But like i always say we planted the seed. Then we had another investiator named Marcia. She was a reference from a guy in the ward named Devanir. She has some mental problems and its really hard to teach her. The State took her son away becasue she cant take care of him to well. So we went back the next day to teach her and he was there. He was gone for 4 months. So we were watching her with him and im not sure if she is stable enough to have him. Ugh it was hard to watch. So that was intresting. But she wasnt progressing she just has to many problems in her head and we cant help her. The Lord knows she is special and he will take care of her. So in the same apartment complex we meet and taught Luz-Helena she is really cool. She was totally down for the baptism invite and the lesson and loves us. But hey who wouldnt? But she had to go to Sao Paulo so she should be back later. We need her to go to church. Wednesday was the awesome day. The morning was rough all of our lessons fell through so we went to hit doors and we get on this street and knock a door and this girl comes out and at the same time this man in a car asks for directions so Sis K. pulls out her map to go help him and then I take up the courage to talk to the girl. And she was like are you from America and was like ya. She was like you can talk english to me, and she said it in english. I was like what. She lived in Austraila for a year and learned english. She is awesome. So then she asked me so many questions. It was awesome. And i was responding in english and port. It was funny. She was like if you guys ever need anything let me know... So Tuesday we are going back to teach her because she is going to the beach. Which is 4 hours from here, just a side note for those that wanted to know. Then the man Sis K. taught he spoke english too he teaches english. But he lives in Soracaba so that stinks we cant teach him. Then later night we went to Jennifer but she wasnt home then we saw man standing in front of her house and we went to do a contact with him and he was like hey hey i am a member and i need to come back. Douglas. He was awesome. His wife isnt a member but she wants to get baptized. So we went over there the next day and taught her the first lesson. She is really cool. They have two little girls and they are golden. We picked them up on Sunday for church and they gave us a ride. They are so cool. I love them. He had a bunch of friends at church that welcomed him back. And she has been to church before. So that was cool. So after church and lunch. Sis K. taught piano lessons and then we went to there house to invite her to be baptized. Her friends came in during the lesson and Sis K didnt skip a beat. That is the thing about Brasil people just walk in during your lesson and you say hi and give kissess and carry on. I was worried that Adnely would be wierd becasue her friends were there but she just keep on listening to our message, and then Sis K. invited her to be baptized. And she said it was awesome. We left on a high note. I love them they are perfect. She is golden. And she has such good support from her husband it is going to be great. Noemi didnt come to church again. So the ball is in her court. We have done all we could. You have no idea how hard it is to leave them behind but when they arent progressing we have to move on. We have to find the elect. And then one more awesome experence. We were hitting doors in Chave and i walked by a house and the door was open and i saw three kids in wheelchairs and the mom was cooking. I was like no she is busy she wont want to hear us so I kept walking then i felt the spirt tell me so strongly SISTER WHITE GO BACK THERE. So I told Sis K. and she said ok you talk to her and i did and she let us in. She has 7 kids three are in wheelchairs. They are totally cohernt its just there bodies that dont work. So the spirt was so strong i almost cried. Sister K has a brother that is speical needs too so she was filling the spirit too it was intense. Salete cant read so we are going to help her learn how to read. We left the gospel of J.C. with her and her 11 year old daughter Giovanna was going to read to her and the family that night. They are awesome. I am so grateful that I am serving a mission and worthy enough to have the holy ghost with me 24/7 for moments like that. He truly is amazing. Things are picking up here in Votorantim.
