Ok we have even less time to email now because of all the people that have arrived here in the CTM. So this will be a short one.
We had an awesome devotional watching a re-broadcast of Jeffrey R. Hollands devotional he did in 2014 in the Provo MTC. It was so powerful and awesome!! My favorite quote from it is "you've never done anything so right as this" and its so true!! I love it here and love what I am doing!!
Two Spanish elders arrived last week that are going to my mission and one of them is from the Dominican Republic and knows my friend Smith Heaps that is serving there right now! Such a small world. And exciting that we are getting more people going to Sao Paulo East Mission!!
Last Sunday was so good!! It was probably the best fast Sunday I have had in my entire life. We had a great mission conference and testimony meeting. Sundays here are just the best.
Side note for all the futebol fans...Brazil played Mexico this week and won 2-0 (sorry CJ haha). The city is just so loud when they are playing!
Com amor,
Sister Jeppson
Questions Answered from Mom:
São Paulo is great!! So crazy because there are so many people. There is both poverty and not everywhere. It's sad to see people living in tents on the freeway road parts. But the MTC is clean. Laundry is crazy because we only have 4 washers and dryers so we have to combine clothes.
The language is coming along! Slow but steady! Some days I feel like I can't speak at all, but other days i realize just how much the gift of tongues is real! We go proselytizing this week so I'll be sure to tell you how well I can communicate then haha.
I am warm enough! It has been pretty warm here.
Hopefully, i will get at least an hour to type in the field.
