My computer won't upload pictures today. I'll keep trying, but no promises. [They never came through.]
We found some good people who are on their way to baptism! We will have a baptism this Sunday
for _________, so just pray that we can catch her at a good time to
teach her the rest of the stuff (she works a lot). Carnival stinks as a
missionary - everyone goes out of town, and there is a ton of noise at
night, and everyone is drunk, so we´ll see how work is these next two
days (I´m just grateful that I don´t live in Rio or the Bahia!!!!!)
My biggest joy this week is having the chance to be the
miracle that people are looking for. I had a couple of experiences this
week where we´ve met and taught people who were either talking the night
before about how they needed to change their lives or go to church, or
another who prayed to see angels because he was really down, and then the
bus dropped us off at the wrong place and we went and talked to him,
or someone that wants to stop smoking but doesn´t know how, or people who
have fallen away from the church, but one of the children has been
asking to come back, and then we show up. Moments like that make
EVERYTHING worth it! It´s neat. Heavenly Father is aware of each one of us
at each moment, so if you feel like you are in need of something, ask Him
for it - specifically, and then open your eyes and heart to see the
surprise that comes. It may not come how you expect, but He always gives
EXACTLY what we need RIGHT when we need it. Promise!
