Cariacica - Week Two

Well, this week has gone pretty well, I guess. I'm working really hard, but we're still having a few problems here with the area, a.k.a. we don't have a big teaching pool yet. So we are walking a lot and talking to a lot of people to try and see if someone wants to talk to us.

So, last week, we helped a woman named Raquel up her hill with grocery bags. She appreciated the help, and we taught her really quickly and marked to come back. Anyway, she went to church yesterday, and she really liked it. We have been teaching her a lot, and she Knows that what we teach is true. She accepted to be baptized, but didn't want to mark a date yet. She is really awesome. And she's really using her faith because Satan is really trying to get her to not go and stuff like that. The night before going to church she had a dream and saw the church exactly how it is but people were doing weird spirit things in the chapel, and it really scared her, but she went anyway, and saw that it was nothing like what she dreamed. She was impressed by everything in the church. We have been teaching her son Felipe as well, and he will progress as well. He really likes what we're teaching him.

Other than them, we have a few new investigators, but we don't know how its going to be. I'm going to make a lot of cookies today for our zone meetings that we have to do in two different places, because the zone is really big. But its going to be good. We're going to lose a day of work in cachoeiro (another city close) to do the meetings there, but the bus ride is a few hours long. we'll spend the day doing a division with the other elders there.

We're working really hard, and the ward here is really big! I've never seen any other this big on the mission! It really helps in the bringing investigators to church part.

We also had our zone counsel this week, with president. It was pretty good. They talked a lot about how the prophet has asked to speed up the work.

I guess that's it with the mission work. We're working hard here. There are some days that I'm just super tired, but I get through it.

Love you all.
