Singing in the Rain

This week we got hit by a few days of unexpected rain or more like downpour haha.  And it was during a division that Sister Tatlow and I were doing in Sao Jose, and during our travel to Sao Paulo for leadership counsel.  So let's just say it was the least prepared I've ever ben for rain her in Brazil.  We were completely soaked as well as all of our bags, clothes etc haha.

Life tip in Brazil: Always carry an umbrella with you, if not... Já era kkk

Also, ya know how in movies when a giant bus hits a puddle on the road and it splashes and soaks the person on the sidewalk?  That was us about 4 times hahah.  Ah, I love the mission.

Besides the rain, a few other things that happened this week include:

I got locked in the Sisters bathroom for about 10 minutes haha... they forgot to tell me that the lock is broken.  Don't worry, I used my best fireman skills to get free.

Campos decided to drop again in the weather so its actually freezing here.  Yet another great experience was using my open toed shoes because my other ones were soaked...I don't recommend it.

Leadership counsel was awesome.  We are making a few changes with our mission that are great and exciting to help grow the work here even more.

Joao Henrique is awesome, and loving the stories of the Book of Mormon.  He is great friends with Luiz, who is helping him out a lot as well.

And unfortunately, the parents of Duda, Lucas, and Pedro did not let them get baptized this week.  the day after they gave he ok and signed the paper giving authorization, they said they didn't want it yet, but to wait more time.  Man, iw was sad and sad to see Duda, Lucas, and Pedro sad.  They want to get baptized, but need to wait until their parents say yes, so we will continue to work with them with patience.

With all the ups and downs and craziness, I am very grateful and happy to be where I am doing what I am doing.  the best work is the Lords' work!!

Make someone smile today!

Com Amor,

Sister Jeppson
