We had 4 sisters die this week. (aka. go home from the mission) It was rather sad. They are very loved... But we did inherit some nice things from them! If they are reading! THANK YOU! hahah.
The sisters from the other islands are coming in today, (the ones that are sister leaders). Im excited to see them.
This whole week and part of last week we've been using our landlord's mother's electricity. Apparently one of the tenants in our building didnt pay their bill so they cut the whole building's light... then they put it back in.. but somehow our level still doesnt have electricity? So there is a cord that runs from her level to ours giving half of our apartment light.
There is an incredible recent convert named Sandra who was baptized a few weeks ago. She fed us a tortilla, with sausage and delicious mangos!! We had went to her house to talk to her about helping us teach a girl named Line, but then she kept feeding us! Oh... I was full before we even walked into her house and every bite was a fight....
Other news... We have a few young ladies progressing towards baptism. They are sweet.
The ward is having "Rescue month". The whole ward is choosing 2 people that they can help come to church before the end of the year. One less active and one nonmember. And this next sunday, the ward is going to fast for these people. I'm so happy for them! By the end of the year we will have our frequency up to 150 if they do it. They have an average frequency of about 70. This past week was 90.
Praia really is something different. I really love the area I'm in and the people we teach and find... They are just so ready. Way more than others. Kindof makes me wonder why the Lord put me here in my last transfers. hahaha.
Until next week!
Sister Booler
