Im doing pretty good. Another week gone by! It flew by really fast!
This week has been pretty difficult. We kind of lost all of our potentials so we are basically starting from the bottom again. We are finding new people to teach almost daily though! But I have faith we will find more this week.
This week has been full of crazy things. One day we were walking down one of these tight residential alleyways and people can drive down them but they only have like 2 ft of clearance on the sides of the car. So we were walking and here comes this van and we had just turned the corner to that oncoming van that was coming real slow. So we moved against the wall by the corner where we had just turned to give him some room. Well the guy goes to turn left where we had just come from but he didnt have room to make a wide turn and the back half of the car started coming closer and closer as he turned and then i got pinned against the car and the wall and my shoulder started getting crushed and i dented the side of the car with my body that had just gotten smashed. So we started banging on the side of the van and the guy stopped because he would have scraped the wall. so he starts reversing and almost runs over my dang foot!!!! It was bad!!! and we looked at the guy and he just glared at us as he drove off....luckily the dent popped back out lol
Then another unlucky day i was just randomly walking and my arm was resting on my bag hanging from my shoulder and i feel like this sting and it felt like i got a splinter from my bag in my arm and i got to look and it started hurting like crazy as i hit this wasp off my arm!! oh my gosh it stung so bad!! it got all swollen and red and my comp was like if it gets worse we are prob going to have to go to the ER.. luckily it didnt and I was fine.
We are trying our best here in Portugal. Talking to absolutely everyone we see. Hopefully we see the fruits of our labor soon!! My portuguese has improved alot. I can understand 95% or more of every conversation now and i can respond back :)
Oh! I also gave my first talk in sacrament meeting this past week in sacrament mtg. It was a 10 min talk and I shared the lion king story. It was super hard in portuguese!!
Thank you for all the prayers and support from back home. I am so glad i have people like you.
have a great week!!
Tentam de ser os melhores exemplos para as outras pessoas cada dia de sua vida!!
Amo cada um de vocês
