8/21/17 It's Raining Sugar!!!!!!

Hello everyone :) Well this week was pretty normal :) but, we did have a BATISMO!!!!! On Friday, Rauwanny was Baptized, she is a daughter of a lady who is living with a less active member, they were in the Cidade Nova Ward, my last area, but we were able to talk to them more and she was baptized!!!!!!! So that's exciting :) 

Well, batis​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​mo, cake, more people to teach, rain, thunder, lightning, dogs, "scorpions", and more rain. That basically explains this week :) 

So first,  cake... We ate so much crap food this week, cake, ice cream, chocolate, mousse, candy, literally sugar..... my stomach didn't feel the best afterwards. I actually said no one time to chocolate cake with more chocolate and strawberries..... me... I said no thanks...... now that I'm thinking about it... don't even know how I could have done such a terrible thing...... but it was soooo much sugar, but it was good :) 

And then this week we have met sooo many new people. Saturday... we had 12 people to bring to church.. Everyone said that they would go... but this week was also the end of the world here in Ala Paris, rain, thunder, lightning, wind, everything..... And it was the worst Sunday morning.... so no one wanted to go to chruch and leave the house into the storm... so yeah... that was a downer, but 3 poeple did manage to make it. :) We met a lady named Fran, who has 2 daughters. Gabriella and Nayara. They went with us and also Larissa, our eternal pesquisadora.... but she helped a whole bunch with making the 2 girls feel better and more comfortable :) We also met a family who is literally the best.. we are gonna plan a Family Home Evening with them so they can get to know some members :) They are pretty great :) 

And dogs... well... I don't know what the probelm is with the dogs here, but they are all crazy and wanna eat everyone that passes by. We pass by on the other side of the road and they still chase after us.... they are pretty annoying..... But yeah... they are crazy...... and "scorpions".... on the mission, this is a term for the guys who hit on the sisters... so there were a whole bunch this week... Rabelo, who now is Sister Menezes, changed her name, will now not say good afternoon or hi to any guy, cuz each time they respond with something vulgar or they flirt... so we just stopped XD XD But it's pretty funny XD XD XD XD So yeah :) 

Well.... that's basically all that has happened.... we did have a great experience getting the girls to chruch yesterday. So,we thought that they weren't going to come, but when we got there, they were all ready there and were excited to go too :) We also had a great lesson with them about the Restoration. They loved it and another one of our pesquisadoras told her mom about the Book of Mormon and her mom sent her Book of Mormon to get a cover. A super fancy one  with her name and birthday and a whole bunch of cool stuff on it... sooo cool :) 
I am soo happy for this opportunity to be here serving the Lord and helping people to get excited about the Gospel :) 

Love you all and sorry for my english..... it's bad I know... but yeah :) Also, sorry for not putting a lot of experiences in. Also, we still haven't moved into our new house..... so that stinks.. but maybe next week..
Well love you all and I'll talk to you next week :) 

Love Sister Ferguson
