Happy Times at Church!

Hello again!!  I sent a lot of pics this week so i hope that you like them! Ill try to get better and send more! 

This week was a good one for sure! Don’t even know where to start! On Tuesday we got to go to the temple which was way awesome. I love going to the temple! There was a lot of different zones there, as well, so it was fun to see some other missionaries there. On Wednesday we had interviews with the president, and while he was interviewing all of us, the assistants gave a training. I love president even more. Man he is such an awesome guy! So much fun to be around. Sister Dalton is super awesome, as well. She doesn’t speak any portuguese but she’s trying! She was robbed and got her i phone stolen the first week that she was here! Welcome to Brazil! haha But she’s way awesome as well. I like her a lot. They have a 16 year old daughter who’s also with them and she got here this week. She will stay for 2 years and then go to college in the states!

It was a good week of teaching for sure. We have been teaching all of Meire’s grandkids and her daughter as well which has been way awesome! Yesterday they were all at church which was great! Meire wants to baptize them all! She’s so happy. It’s way fun to see. So we have a goal with them to baptize them this weekend. We will see where the week takes us! On Friday we had a meeting with the president and all the zone leaders again and that was super good. He’s making his plans and putting them into effect as fast as possible! It was a way good meeting with him! That night we had a family night with Morgana and it was so good! She invited her sister and her neighbor and a few members so there were people there to teach! The next day we passed by and taught her neighbor and yesterday Morgana brought her to church! she’s super into this whole missionary work thing already which makes it so much easier for us to find people! We are planning on doing another family night there soon because she has more people that she wants to invite. 

Elder Pignata left this morning. He will stay the day at President’s house and then tomorrow morning he leaves.  So as of now, I am without a comp! I'm with the other two missionaries untill tomorrow with transfers. The other american I’m with was transfered which made me bummed because he’s super funny, but he has been in this house a  while. I stayed, which made me super pumped and will get my new comp tomorrow! 

I think that’s about all I’ve got for you guys today! Know that I’m doing awesome! My vision of the temple is growing so much! We are so privileged to have a temple so close there in colorado! Go to the temple as much as possible! At least once a month will bring blessings and happiness! Love you all have a great week!!

love you!
