Yep so I got transferred to the big city! It´s different, but I´m liking it so far. We were teaching a family this past week and they are golden! They got baptized yesterday and it was so amazing! They are so happy! Carlos and Patricia, they have two little boys and the oldest got baptized, Rodrigo. The younger one still has to wait a few years, Daniel, but the baptism was so special. Carlos had asked what they can do to help their boys prepare for missions! THis is honestly one special family!
So this area is about 25 minutes away from my last. And yes my comp is brasilian. We are working in a trio for now with sister gonzaga. The reason it´s this way is because there is an odd number of sisters so what president will do is find a member to work with sister gonzaga in her area. So it would be like going on splits, but she will stay with sister gonzaga...if that makes sense.
So the pictures I sent are from the day we all went to the beach with President and Sister Batt. It was so much FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alright, so I will be calling friday to make sure the phone works and confirm the time I will be calling. My plan is to call saturday at 10:00am your time, so it will be 2:00pm here in brasil. Friday I will be calling in the morning, most likely 7:00am your time. So please answer the phone!!!! :) And keep the phone free so I can get through to you.
I got my birthday packages! THank you so much. I´m pretty sure everything was in there. the big box got opened at customs, my guess is because of the weight. And one bag of hot cheetos had opened but I´m thinking because of the pressure it got popped open. But thank you so mcuh for everything. And my comps love the hand soap! :) I´m still waiting for the christmas packages but i´ll probably get them this week.
Quick question...someone here said they heard on the news that the tabernacle was on fire or something, i don´t know just something that I heard, just wondering if you heard anything....???
Oh and somehitng crazy, we had lunch at a members house the other day and she´s a WALKER!!!!!! Not sure if she´s related to any of the walkers in othello but she said that her family came from New England, thought that was pretty interesting. Her first name is Aida, maybe you could ask the walkers there if they have any relatives that they know of here in brasil.
Oh mom I forgot to tell you! When I was in my last area my neighbors were trying a diet, guess what it was...????? The soup diet!!!!!!!! I couldn´t believe it! I just laughed when I heard that, I told them that we all tried it and good luck! i thought it was pretty funny.
Well, I hope you all have a Feliz Natal and I can´t wait to talk to you guys on christmas! I love you and miss you very very much!!!!
Love, Sister Salisbury
ps don´t forget to tell brett the time I´ll be calling!
