Warning, warning! - March 23, 2015

OH family! I can't believe we are entering into the last week of March. Sometimes I am just like....this isn't possible.
Okay. Where to start.
Gorette-- She spilled the beans! She finally started to open up about what she was feeling about the church. The only thing to know is that we moved to give a lesson about Temple Work and Family History....and it was the COOLEST lesson of my life.  I finally was able to teach in full everything I know about Family History work. Normally, we give the lesson and the people just accept it, and move on. But this lesson, was incredible. We were actually conversing talking about EVERYTHING. And at the end, she said, "Sister, I am not going to baptize this Sunday (22nd) because I still have to stop with Coffee. But Sunday (29th), I am going to be baptized." I kind of just sat there, like..... after 4 visits of Sister Craig thinking "Cut her, she isn't progressing. Why are you returning?!", the anwser finally came out. Sometimes....I need to remember that the Lord's timing is different. We just need to follow the spirit, in everything we do.
Eliane and Raylan-- We went there with a member, Irma Marli, we talked about the Restoration. Irma Marli, bore her testimony of how much the Gospel blesses the lives of her family, and her two little boys. Which was incredible, because Eliane worries alot about her kids. It was awesome, and she accepted to be baptized April 5th! Conference weekend!
This week, we started a "Read your Scrips, with your Sisters" Calendar. We gave up our Sundays, which are pretty much useless, and are dedicating it to members. So they sign up what hour they want, and we go to their house and read the scriptures with them. We started realizing the ward was getting a little weak, so we decided to start helping them focus on the things most important. They got excited about it, and so did we. Plus it will be good to get to know more members.
Today was a Zone Activity. We had bbq, brazilian style. Ice cream. Laughs. I painted the Elders nails. haha, cant believe it! They fought like Bryce, but lost like Jeff. Haha.
This week we are helping a less actives daughter get baptized. Lara, she is so super cute and so super ready. Afterwards, its Gorettes baptism!!! Lets goo!!!!
Love you all!!! Time flies, and today was short, because...we entered late!!!
Beijos.
