Hey Everyone!
We are talking to a lot of people! We do a lot of
contacts every day but it’s harder to find people that actually want to learn
more and want to get baptized. The people are so great here though. We are
teaching an amazing sister named Valkyria. Her husband is a returned missionary
but fell away from the church. He smokes, drinks, and they aren't married
legally :( It is so sad to see someone who was so strong fall so hard. But
Valkyria is amazing and wants to know more and be baptized! We have a lot of
work to do before that can happen, but she is just awesome and I love her
already!
I don’t even know what to write! It’s hot and humid
here now but people are super nice and always give us water and juice.
Portuguese is coming... haha. Actually, yesterday we started talking to these
two ladies sitting outside their house and they couldn't understand my
companion very well, but they could understand me! What?! My comp has a strong
American accent but she’s been here a year and understands everything and
everyone always understands her, but not this time. So I had to do all the
talking, which almost never happens. God has a great sense of humor. I know it I
just so I would have to speak more Portuguese. But I actually did okay. I can
speak Portuguese! I know Heavenly Father has strengthened me so much while I
have been here. I wouldn't be able to do anything without the help of the Lord.
Pray. Read the scriptures. You have a Father in
Heaven you loves you and wants to help you succeed. Just ask Him.
Com Amor,
Sister Berry
