On Tuesday we had divisions. Sister Florentino and Sister Aguaiar came to our area so I could work with them, and it was great! We had so many cool opportunities to encounter people. One Mom and daughter Renata and Amanda were walking on the street when we started conversing with them. Renata, turns out took English classes for five months a while back at the church. She asked me if I had a Book of Mormon and asked if she could have one! Of course! That's one of the best things a missionary hears. We ended up teaching her later this week and she and Amanda came to church and like it a lot! They are super awesome. We also had a sweet family night at the end of the day with a members family along with many family/friends. Everyone enjoyed it and we all ate acai after from a giant 10 liter container of acai. It was the best!!
We went to the São Paulo temple with Jane!!! It was the greatest day! Jane took her father's name to the temple and she had an amazing experience. The temple is the best place on earth and we also got to see the visitors center that is neat as well. There were a ton of people there that day, which was cool to see, and I even ran into a kid from my very first area! The temple has the sweetest spirit and I was just so happy.
Also, it truly is the small and simple things everyday. Agusto, the Bishop's special needs child was walking all around the chapel while we were waiting for Jane to finish her interview. We were sitting down and August sat down by us and just started smiling a ton for 5 minutes while we talked to him. He doesn't talk but he understands some things. It was so sweet and I really saw and felt God's love for His children in that moment. Make it a fantastic week!
Boa semana!
Com amor!
