- Divisions: we had divisions with some Sisters in Taubate. I stayed in the area with sister Costa and Sister Lima, While Sister Enout and Reid did divisions with Sisters there. Sister Costa and Lima are both fresh to the mission; they arrived just one week before.
It was great, and we had a lot of cool teaching and finding experiences.
Isabel got baptized!!! She is just awesome. She is the mom of Anna and Dudu who both got baptized recently. And how it went was,
Isabel: Sisters, when am I going to get baptized?
Us: What!? Um, whenever you want! This week?
Izabel: Okay!! I am ready now to get baptized!
And yep, basically she is the best. She was the example for her kids in the first place, always going to church. She just wasn't ready before. But, she finally realized she was prepared! Her baptism was very special and sweet, and the spirit was so strong. Very neat experience.
-Another miracle was during Izabel's baptism. We had to descend to Pinda for the baptism (we got a new pool but it is freezing here) and were in 2 cars. We had on extra spot, so we invited Celia, who was working in the offie place of Irmao Vitor to come with us. She is sweet, and always asking us questions when we are there, and she came to church before and liked it. She came, and loved the baptism! And on Sunday, she came to church again despite saying she couldn't make it the night before! She changed her work schedule to be able to come, and just absolutely loved it. Seriously, the Lord's hand is in everything!
- Zone conference: It was super awesome and fun as well as uplifting and spiritual. Well, except for the part when President Miller called me, Sister Enout and a few other Elders to give 10 minute trainings- 10 minutes before it started!! Yep, just imagine us struggling to prepare a training in 10 minutes haha. Definitely a nervous rush... But, it all worked out in the end. After the conference, President made a BBQ lunch of hamburgers (ah, so good!) and we did activities. Soccer, basketball, etc. And, an arm wrestling context! And yes, I competed of course haha. It was hilarious. The last elder who won got to go agains President (previous BYU football player)... and he lost haha. It was super entertaining.
And many more great things are happening, with no time to write it all. So....
Boa Semana!!
Com Amor, Sister Jeppson
