yo yo momma! what the heck? how is that possible that they are signing up for housing already?? I seriously have no idea who i wanna live with. Well i wanna live with isaac honestly. Is there a way to sign up now for a place and leave him as an option locked in as my roomate or something? If isaac doesnt get in, im gonna have to talk to some other friends from freshman year. Id also live with Calvin or with some guys from the mission, but they will all be home later. So i really have no idea....ugh. And also I really dont know about where I wanna live. I would just trust in sam where he thinks it would be good. Cause i know absolutely nothing about housing off campus at byu.
that is awesome that you talked with elder Longhurst. He seems like such a nice guy. Im so glad for what he did for dad. And his son looks pretty cool. There are lots of Brazilians in atlanta so maybe he'll get to know some. Im gonna write him, but im gonna use the smartphone this week to make a draft then i will send it next week, but dont worry ill copy it for you.
I did write my letter to my 17 year old self. I will send it to you separately. I think the biggest difference when i was 17 is i just didn't understand repentance and i didn't even really feel bad for certain things i did lol. But whatever its past. I hope you like the letter!
I wanted to ask how 2 hour church is going for you guys? How do you think the results are being? It seems a little fast for me. But i think its cause im just so worried about my investigators. But i think its also good for them cause i know 3 hours was hard.
This week we worked a lot. WE had some good time in our area. I just feel like we only found 2 good people. But that is still plenty. It is a woman whos 26 and her nephew who is 12. They are super great! They loved our lesson and they actually read the BoM in between the lessons (which is rare) and they even wrote down their impressions from the chapter they read. That blew us away. They couldn't go to church this week cause of a wedding but are good to go this week and be baptized next week. But this week we worked with Daniella who went to church last week. Ill talk more about her in my email. But she accepted to be baptized this week but then we figured out she was breaking the Law of Chastity with her boyfriend. So we delayed the baptism. She is gonna talk to him i think today about it. She couldnt go to church this week cause of work, but she said she would definitely go this week. She even said she was willing to stop but she knew her bf would have a problem with it. SSo thats kinda sad, but I hope that her boyfriend can understand and that she can be strong enough to want to follow God more than anything else. I think it should all work out for this week. Any advice for me to talk about for the blessings of following the law of chastity before marriage??
Today we had a fun pday. LIke our whole zone is american its funny and we only speak english ahah. But we went to a mall for lunch then we went to played basketball. Thiago who was baptized last week in that other area came as well with the elders from there!!! It was awesome!!!!
My comp is being toughhhhhh momma. He just doesn't speak Portuguese and hes bipolar and no one trusts in him to do their baptismal interviews cause hes not too good with them. But im just going forward and doing my best. Its hardddd but whatever just gotta keep fighting.
Love you momma!
