Sister...booleh? July 3, 2012

Well, I don't have much to report on this week. BUT We did have the baptism of the sweetest 9 year old ever. :) Her name is Linda. I honestly love her to pieces! Her entire family aren't members yet, but we're working on it. :) We just have to work past some commandments with her family.. haha.

Anyways, Fogo is still hot. But I'm learning to love it! My skin isn't getting tanner, but my hair is getting blonder and longer it seems. So I guess that's a plus. :)

We were sharing our area with some elders because there is SO MUCH work here... but they are getting tranferred to another part of the island. SO now we have all of their investigators and ours and our growing pool of references of people to teach! We are busy, busy, BUSY! I fasted to be able to find some of the people here that are really prepared for the gospel, and BOY! did we find them all that day! So it looks as if we will be doing splits this week to teach everyone. Hooray more work! :)

A little tender blessing of today is that our landlord's wife gave us some mangos this morning! YES!! I love mangos!

There isn't too much news. It's a alot of stressfulness here with everyone to teach and with us trying to split the branch and make a stake. 5 stakes = a temple. Or so I've heard. So basically there is alot of pressure on the missionaries here in Fogo to baptize. It's.. stressful. hahaha. But hopefully the stress will pass. I love the work here. I love teaching and helping these people spiritually.. I just hate people rushing me to baptize. But it'll all work out. :)

I LOVE our branch here! But I can never get anyone's name right! hahaha. It's so hard remembering 200 names! GOSH! It'll come by the end of the transfer though. hahaha.

Anyways, I hope everything is great for everyone!
