So, last Monday, we made brownies to take to Sonia house for FHE. We got there and not everyone was there, it was just Sonia and Helen so we just went with it. We shared the message well I did and then we ate brownies. It was good. Then Sonia was like you guys need food let me whip up something and we were like no no we are good. But did she listen no. She came back and there was some green liquid and my cup and I was like what is this. They were like it`s abacate(avocado). I was like what. They were like just drink it. Ok it was abacate, powder milk, water, and a little bit of sugar blended together. It was heaven. Sounds gross and really it looks gross but it is so good. It`s almost like a milkshake. Here they only have avocado sweet not salty like us. So anyways we ended up staying way late there and had to take the bus home and got home at 10. Opps. Don`t worry we called our ZL`S so it was all good. We went home and slept. Then when we woke up on Tuesday we didn`t workout we just made these pastels for the elders. And it took longer than we thought. So we had to dress super fast and get to the terminal to catch the bus. So the bus leaves at 8:25 we left the house at 8:15 and we had to go to the bank and make copies and put money on our bus cards. It looked like a scene from Amazing Race. We are two Americans running through the streets all kinds of crazy. I have a fat tuber ware box in my hand and Sis K. is holding Preach My Gospel it was insane, but we barely made it to the bus. It was awesome we were sweating on the bus man. Then at district meeting the activity was to show the faith. So we had to run around the chapel and find ballons and come back to a certain room and poop them and there were little sheets inside. Whoever got the 17 papers first won. So of course Sis K and I won. Leave it to the Sisters. We killed the Elders. We won a fat Hershey bar. I love our companionship. We were so happy we didn`t workout in the morning I don`t know if we could have done it.
Douglas and Adnely are doing good. She is really hard to read though. She has questions but never asks them so we are still working on her. But she has a date to be baptized on the 6th of May so we are pumped. Then we were knocking doors and this young woman came to the door. She was really cool. She never heard of our church and wanted to know more. So we gave her a little piece of what we beleive. Her name is Paloma and she was like ya I`m Cathoclic but I never feel that burning at church. She said she didn`t have time to talk to us but after that sentence we were both salavating at the mouth. Sis K. worked her magic and we got in. We taught her and her mom the 1st lesson. It went well. But they didn`t come to church. We are not giving up on them they seem golden. We had to drop Noemi that was a hard day but it had been over 6 weeks and she wasn`t coming to church. So hard to drop them. But we are here to find the elect that ones that want to follow Christ.
The other family I was talking about Salete with the handicap kids well she isn`t progressing either. She said she isn`t ready to follow the church and loves us but does not want to change her life. That is too bad we had a really strong feeling about her. We have Bia back in the pool as far as someone to baptize. We talked to Jaqulini her mom and she said they would pray about to know if it`s right. She has a lot of fear because she was baptized at 8 and fell away from the church later on and doesn`t want that to happen to Bia. So we took her the baptism clothes and that made her happy and we said imagine how beautiful she will look in this. We went back the next day and she hadn`t receive an answer yet so we invited Bia to be baptized on the 23 and they both said yes so we shall see what happens. We have a lot of faith. And Camila Sonia daughter we invited her to be baptized as well. So we shall she what happens with that. I hope it happens they are so ready.
Our English class was a but one person came. We need to make flyers and be more up on it. And now Sis K. is teaching piano we are just teaching machines. We have another new family we are teaching. Caremlino. We contacted them on the street. And he has 4 kids and a wife. They took the discussions 10 years ago but have been going to the congregation. So, they came to church on Sunday that was cool. They had to leave at the last hour because his nephew took rat poison and was dying and they had to go and take care of him. It was insane. So later that night we went and taught them, they are really cool. Oh and the nephew is ok. We invited them to be baptized but they are caught up on the whole they believe they can receive revelations and we tried to tell them that is of the Devil but they didn`t get it. I want them to be baptized they are so perfect. And another little miracle Bruna the other Bruna brought a friend to church and we are going to teach her tonight. She seems really perfect I can`t wait. This month has been a lot of having faith. Even when it seems like it`s only going to get worse we are praying and fasting a lot for faith and to find his elect.
