Três Lagoas

Well Tres Lagoas was Jared's first area in his mission. He loved it there and he loved his companion. They worked really well together and had many baptizisms and had many investigators. He is such a great missionary.

we taught this super super poor lady. like unbelievably poor. house is barely standing, no doors, barely a roof. dirt floors. just super sad. of course she is happy as a lamb though! :) i already felt so selfish just walking in there. how i complained about so much! ah! it kills me!

guess what...we have the second biggest area in my mission. lol. and you know what that means!! walking walking walking walking. like i never have before.

we have another baptism on sunday too! valdineia! she is awesome! she just resently moved here to Tres Lagoas like 2 months ago. she is super super nice. she is about 24. she lives alone and has no children or pets. lol. when we first taught her we left telling each other, yep, she is going to be baptized. lol. she is like way spiritual, and you can tell that she is really really ready. we told her that we would be stopping by her house sunday morning to walk with her to church, and when we came around the corner she was in front of her house in her church clothes, and she was reading o livro de mormon! we both looked at each other and said milagres!! miracles! she loved church!

i say a funny thing when i was walking the other day. a duck, and a dog were fighting. yep, i can guess what you thought happened right? well your probably wrong. the duck was kickin the tar our of the dog. lol. it wasn't a small dog either. lol.

well yesterday we went to a members house for lunch like always, and guess what they had. potatoes with apples inside them....like huh?? it wasn't really bad, it was just weird. lol. well they had something to go along with it too....chicken feet. yep. i ate 4. lol. they were very very odd i will tell you that, but especially here, you never say no. lol. and when you finish one, they make you eat more cause they think you are too skinny. haha. and we need energy to baptize everyone! well dessert was exciting. rice and milk. literally.
