Feliz dia das graças!! We dont actually celebrate Thanksgiving, so I
hope you all eat lots of turkey and stuffing for me and remember all
that you are thankful for.
This week was full of miracles and happy people and lots of dogs.
So,
we met Elianie who has lived here for only a short amount of time and
naturally gave us the wrong house number. We met her in the street and
when we went to find her house her son so happened to be outside!! Or
else there is no way that we would have found her and this non existing
number. So we taught her three times this week and it wasnt until the
third visit that she realized we are Mormons, after we brought out the
book. Lol. She has had a hard life but really wants to change and is so
open to hearing and learning more.
Then we had
a noite familiar with Fernanda. But that night it was raining, hard,
and we were running late from our next appointment when our next miracle
happened. WE GOT A CARONA (a ride!!). A couple from another ward
stopped and drove us to the house of the family! But Fernanda had
already passed the house of the member and she had returned home, but
she said that she would come back. It was 40 minutes later and she still
hadnt shown, but we decided that we would wait for the next car and it
was FERNANDA!!
I am beyond thankful for the
opportunity to serve in Brasil, in the greatest area, with the greatest
people. I know that Heavenly Father knows you personally and that He
blesses you with people for a reason. So to celebrate here are lots of
pictures of people who I am thankful for here in Brasil!
Sister Manhas, my companion! She is always helping me with the language and is constantly happy.
The Sisters in my district. They are constantly making me laugh and they appreciate my efforts to make "foods american" (aka french toast)
SIS. MANHAS FIRST HAIRCUT IN FAZENDA. I am just really thankful for such a solid companion.
And sister Ferreira because she really loves this photo and makes me laugh all the time.
I am truly blessed and have so much to be thankful for!!
Have the greatest thanksgiving and dont forget about how blessed you are!!
Abraço,
Sister Albertoni
