OI FAMÍLIA!!!!!
Welp this was the last week of the
transfer and today is a whole new beginning. I will stay em Parque Bristol
but not with Sister Lima......I am super excited that I will be staying here
because I love Parque Bristol but at the same time a bit sad that Sister Lima
will leave. We became really close, and we had been through so much together
and it was absolutely wonderful while it lasted. My new companion's name is
Sister Sobrinho (and that's all I know about her hahaha). I am excited to get
to know her!
Então this week, we worked really
hard and finished out the transferência strong with a lot of novos
investigators. We are trying to really grow our grupo de ensino and find the
people who really quer.(care) We started teaching Isac's mom and that is
going wonderfully! She has come to church these past two domingos and is
really enjoying it. She has a desire to learn more and what's even better is
that she has Isac to help her! She works throughout the week and gets home
late so we aren't able to visit her as much as we would like to but with
Isac, it makes it a bit easier to know how she's doing and have him do things
(like pray, read the Book of Mórmon) with her.
We are still working with Reneane
and Anderson to get them married. We are just waiting for he documento de
nascimento(Marriage license) to get here from where she used to live and it's
taking forever. This week we found out that it got sent back to her mom and
are going to try another way to get it here as fast as possible. But they are
at church every domingo firme e fortes and are seeing a lot of changes in
their lives since they have started to come to church. It's been great to
help them along and see their progress.
OH and this week I SAW ELDER
HILHCIE! It was superly fantastically awesome!!! I remember when we were
driving past the templo, I looked out the onibus and saw tons of
missionaries. I looked at Sister Lima e exclaimed "my brother's in there
somewhere!" My heart started to beat faster and as we started to walk on
the temple grounds, I got super anxious to see him. But we weren't finding
him. Until I looked to the side and saw a tall Elder looking at me. I started
to really focus on him and realized that it was Elder Hilchie!! He started to
run towards me and I to him and we gave each other the biggest hug ever!
Sister Lima said that when this happened, all the missionaries looked at us
like "what are they doing?! Elderes and sisteres can't hug...." but
after we let go, a lot of missionaries started to come up to us and once we
explained that we were siblings, they got mais relaxed and thought that was
super awesome. It was great to see him!!! We took some pictures, talked a bit
and then it was time to go. Just as he was about to enter into the templo, he
said "tchau" and made a coração(heart) with his hands hahaha. And
now, só em 2 anos.(2 years)
I hope you all have the best week
ever!! Love you all!!
Love,
Sister Hilchie :)
I couldn't retrieve the pictures that were sent, I will have them next week. I am very excited to see them together!!!
