Companions For A 3rd Time
Surprise Birthday Party For Courtney
With Sisters Sousa, Barbosa and Custodio
Hey everyone!
So I’m back in Zona Lagarto which
feels like somehow I never left... here is a branch again and another small
city. Not as small as Itabaiana or Estancia but still. We live here with 2
sisters, Sister Sousa and Custódio who were here before us, and they are super
cool. I love them. But it is kinda sad when you get to an area and everyone already
knows the other sisters and they’re like ´´wait why are you guys here too now...´´
haha. We are trying to get to know the members so we can actually have some
real people to teach. I also forgot how fun it is to have people stare at you
on the street, think I don’t speak Portuguese, or yell broken English phrases
at me as we´re walking. Example: ´´helloo my namey is…!!!´´
Big bday shout out to the big bday
boy JAREDDD yes Jared not Jerry or Geraldo (for now-your only bday present) who
is 12 years old woohooo!! I like Jared because he used to let me sleep in his
crib when he was a baby, because he likes to eat nachos with me, plays Mario Kart
and goes on bike rides with me. And because he has good fashion sense.
I’m starting to feel a little old on
the mission when you wake up and everything hurts... lol. And I had a very Spencer
moment this week when I realized that there are 2 types of hungry in life:
regular hungry and so hungry that you’re actually gonna get up to go make
something yourself. Life lessons on the mish.
Sorry my letter isn’t
super great, hopefully next week I’ll have bigger news to share-we´re just
trying to get settled and learn the ropes here. But I am still grateful for the
trials the Lord gives us-because it is just those trials that will one day
qualify us for the celestial kingdom! It’s a fair price.
Love you all!
Sister
