So just an
update about Savio (that boy that we met a couple weeks ago).
Well......he has soccer championships EVERY SUNDAY MORNING. I will let
you guess where he decides to spend his time Sunday mornings. That is
missionary work for you. However, if it is not his time now......we are
planting seeds and have introduced him to the truth. I am still praying
that he will make the sacrifices necessary to find true happiness in
his life.
Transfers. I will be staying here in Fernandes with
Sister Matiaco. I am content with that. I feel like I still have more to
do here.
We went to the Temple last Tuesday.
It was AMAZING!!! After 6 months of not going to the temple.....I was
soaking up my time there! I didn't want to leave that peaceful, holy
place! However, I definitely learned a lot and received a ton of
strength to carry on! I know that the temple is a peace of heaven on
earth!
Ummm....I can't think of anything to terribly
exciting that happened this week to tell you the truth. The Primary had
its primary program and yours truly participated. We taught and sang
with the Primary "Keep the Commandments."
Sister Matiaco and I will teach an English class
this transfer. It is funny how so many people don't want to hear about
the gospel but are fascinated by the fact that we are Americans.....so
we will use this in our favor and teach English in the church!
Well that is about it for today, folks. Don't you
worry....my hair is getting burned to a crisp in the sun, the tan lines
on my feet from my sandals are totally hott, my apartment is infested
with ants, I am about ready to throw my clothes and skirts that I have
worn about a million times out the window........but it's all good
because I AM ONE OF THE LORD'S MISSIONARIES!!!
Fiquem firmes! Amo voces!
Sister Autumn Barnes
Yeah.....I was really tired that day....... (Taking a picture of me sleeping is something that dad would do!)
With a young man in the ward. His name is Danilo. He is super cool! This is our version of an appropriate hug!
