Baptisms
Wendy & Familyhello everybody! first lets get down to some family business... i wish suzanne a happy birthday this week, i wish mom and dad a great time on their cruise this week, and i am so proud of alisse and scott for watching all my seasons dvd´s of smallville! i am so excited for you guys and i want all of your questions and comments emailed to me especially entering into season 5 and 6 since its the most exciting time.
i didn't write yesterday cuz we went to Pajuçara for a conference so today is p-day. i got the package yesterday and it made me happy demais, with all the goodies in it and stuff, but now with this new mail strike i don't know whats gonna happen. i just hope i get the shoes soon cuz my current ones are so torn apart that it is basically my bare feet stepping on the ground and its rather painful. that and i got some sort of weird spider bite that itches like crazy and turning into a bad rash on my arm. the way i see it, worst thing that could happen, the rash could get worse and i could die, and best thing could be that the bite gets better and i eventually turn into spider-man.
we had FIVE baptisms on sunday (picture) and we were excited cuz me and elder figueiredo both broke our record for most in one week so far in the mish. they were: manoel and navegantes (family), taise (13 year old girl), gilberto (12 year old boy), and wendy (12 year old girl). we have been having a great time teaching the family and parents of wendy (picture) who are preparing for baptism but have to get married. they absolutely loved the french toast and this week i think i´ll teach them cookies. we had a crazy week with wendy ... she was all excited preparing for her baptism, and of course the adversary came in and tried his best to make her change her mind and ruin everything. all the sudden her uncles and aunts and everyone showed up and told her if she was baptized she would be betraying them and then filled her head with a bunch of lies about the church. she was ready to give up but we spent a couple days working really hard with her and helping her know through prayer and the spirit that this is really what she should do. needless to say, she did her part, the Lord did His, and she was baptized on saturday and confirmed on sunday.
now that i officially have about 6 months left, i have made a very important decision, that is, where will be the first place i eat when i get home. after much thought, consider, and pondering, i have came to my conclusion: Quiznos Subs. and i am very happy with my decision.
have a great week!
