So let's see....I hate when I miss writing a week, because then I
have sooo much more to talk about in my email and I don't know where to
start! :P But my new area, Aeroporto is great. I've been having a lot
of fun getting to know the members the last
two weeks, they are awesome, and it is SO GOOD to be in a real live
ward again! :) The bishop is great, we have an awesome ward mission
leader, and the lunches have all been delicious so far. It's been good.
The work in this area is a little different than in Ibiporã. There
is definitely a little bit more of the big-city feel, and the people
here are a lot busier and less receptive. We get a looot more "no"s
when doing street contacts. :P But it's all
good, and despite the differences, we're seeing so many blessings here!
The eleitos are crawling out of the woodwork everywhere we look. :)
We had a baptism yesterday, an awesome young man named Felipe. He is
21 years old and a friend of a member of the
ward here, which is how the sisters first met him. He has been excited
about his baptism since the first time he talked with the sisters a few
weeks ago! :) So I got to help teach him the last few lessons he
needed to receive and finish preparing everything
for his baptism. It was great. :)
My companions have been a lot of fun so far. Being in a trio is
different, very different, but I think we're all figuring it out. Like I
mentioned in my email last week, Sister Barros is CRAZY and we are
always laughing together. It is not always easy
to be in a trio, but she is veryy good at balancing everything out when
the three of us are not on the same page. I don't know what I'd do
without her. :)
More exciting updates from this transfer: there is a new calling
in the Brazil Londrina Mission! Sisteres Treinadores Lideres! Or
something like that, haha, it's a complicated title, but to explain
everything more simply - We get to do divisions between
sisters now! So I think 8-ish sisters were called to be Sisteres
Treinadores Lideres, meaning that they will do divisions with every area
of sisters once a transfer. Here in Aeroporto we got to host the
sisteres lideres this week and they worked with us
in our area a little bit. I think the plan is for us to go to their
area, Assis, São Paulo, next week to do another division and learn from
the way they work in their area. It's exciting and new and awesome! I
always wanted to be able to do divisions and
get to know/learn from the other sisters in the mission, so I'm
excited.
Okay, so I know this email is SHORT, but I'm once again running out
of time. But I love you all so much! I can't wait to talk with you
guys on Sunday!!! :D
Love,
Sister Gee
