Positivity the Cure to Any Ailment

Switched Areas, a Little Sickness, But Staying Positive

Some sad news, our area got switched with the Elders... :(. I was so sad because we had probably 5 progressing investigators and we had to give them all up to the elders :(. Also the Elders didn't have any investigators to give us... But its okay :) hah I know that everything happens for a reason and maybe the Elders needed to teach our investigators so that they could be baptized. And I am excited to work in a new area and find new investigators :).

We have one named William and he is from Brazil. He came to church and he is probably 27? We still haven't taught him. But he fell asleep in sacrament meeting. Hah he was completely out.

Its starting to get Chilly!! Today is nice but it has been raining alot. Sister Duke got sick the other day with the flu and so we needed to stay in the house the whole day. I read some articles, wrote in my journal, I tried to make gluten free pizza for her because she can not have wheat (it was nasty) and read the scriptures. It was a nice little break.

Teaching in All Capacities

Church was great :)! I had to give the D & C class. Sister Duke and I switch off every week. This week it was on family history and temple work. This help me gain a stronger testimony of this principle and want try do this more when I get back.

I was super nervous about giving the class because I feel I still cant speak fluent Portuguese! But, no worrys we have Irmao Santos hahah. He is so funny!! He like gave the class. I would say a sentance and then he would coment and talk for like 30 mins. I would think that he would be done and I would start talking and then he would say.. " E O que e interasante...." (idk spell) hahah he is funny. I have got to figure out a way to involve the others in the class and learn how to not breath or else he might start talking again. ha He is funny and a blessing too because I am not exactly fluent in Portuguese.

Also there was a member that gave a talk yesterday and for his talk he told us that we all need to wash our feet often and brush our teeth and not bite our nails and to wash our hands before and after we go to the bathroom. haha He didnt tie it into the church at all and thats all he said. Haha it was interesting haha :).

I am so grateful for the gospel, I have a strong testimony of it.  I know I am a child of God. I know that Heavenly Father knows each of us individually and loves us so much.  I am grateful for my Savior. I am so grateful for this church and my wonderful family!! :) I am so blessed!!!!!! I miss you and love you all so much!! I hope you have a great week.
