9/4/17 I Need Some Batismo Water!




Hello Everyone!!!!!!! 

Well, this week was pretty good suuuuper hot... it's winter here, or was and it's in the 90's and one day went to 102.... it's soo hot.... I've been drinking sooooo much water and that's not the best thing to do when youre on the road for 9 hours everyday, but that just means i'm gettin' closer to home.   # trunky :) 

So first off, we had a BATISMO!!!!!! Marco was finally baptized! He got baptized yesterday in Ala Cidade Nova, he was an eternal investigator, but now he's gonna be an eternal member, with his family too :) Sooooo happy for him :) Man, there were so many people at his baptism.. everyone was super excited to see him get baptized :) I was too and the Spirit was sooo strong that day... started at church during sacrament meeting, and then it's like the Spirit followed us to the other chapel and it just got even more strong. Man it was sooo amazing :) Really was a super special batismo :) 

Well, this week we had a Zone Conference with the Presidente and also P-Day with the Zone. It was super fun. :) We also had a snack time with one of our investigators, who is Larissa´s aunt. She made huuuge bread :) It was super fun. Also I found a turtle on the ground whille walking one day :) We gave it to a lady who lived nearby and also played a prank on Alex and Rian. :) Got a video of Alex :) 

Yesterday Rian and Alex came to church again and they said that they loved it again and we also brought another little girl to church too :) She and her sister and mom were gonna go originally, but her mom had to take care of 2 other babies in the house, and her sister doesn't like to be far from her mom, so she stayed. But the girl that went is named Raisa and she is 8. She is amazing and super excited about the church. She has already asked her mom when she could be baptized!!! :) So that is super exciting :) 

Other than that.... we dont have a lot of other investigators... Carol, she is still having a problem with her husband, Larissa, she moved, but maybe she will come back.... And the family, Di, Jefferson, and Junior.. they have lost interest.. along with the 2 girls, Gabriella and Nayara... so that's sad.. but we are trying to work with them.... but they are not showing anymore interest.. sad I know... they would be such great members and an eternal family, but we tried. 

Well, that's pretty much it. Oh, about the kittens, THEY OPENED THEIR EYES!!! 2 of them did, the other, which is a lot smaller than the others, still hasn't, but they are almost opening. :) So exciting and a member in our ward said that she wants one, we just have to wait till they stop drinking milk from mommy, which is gonna take a while, but maybe she'll want all 4? dont know, but well see where they go :) 

And well, that's basically it. I am so happy to be here on the mission and am so excited to see where this week takes me. Hope you guys are all doing great and are remembering Chirst in all things :) Love you all and I have a favor to ask of you guys. If you can put some names in your prayers. Larissa, Lorraine, Cida and family. If you could pray for them that would be great :) They need as many prayers as they can get right now :) 

Love you all and talk to you all next week :) 

Com Amor, Sister Ferguson
