Que Isso??? week 2

 














first week done at actual MTC. I'm stuck in Provo for the next 5-6 weeks..... Brazil MTC was full so they sent my district to Provo. I was so mad at first but it has truly been the greatest blessing ever!!! Saying goodbye to my family was WAY harder then i was expecting it to be. butt no worries they put us right to work so there was no time to feel sad lol. #thanksIguess 

also the MTC is just the coolest and also the weirdest concept to me.. like just a bunch of kids trapped in a space learning about god to go all over the world to teach. Sounds like some fever dream to me saying it out loud. 


Also so fun there are so many of my friends that's I've ran into this week and love them and grateful for there examples!! 💗 


 This week has been so long but so incredibly fast. we start early and end late. I have class from 8am-9pm we go to class, eat, personal study, workshops, class, then language, then if we don't have  class then we have a devotional. I don't think I have fought sleep this much ever in  my whole life.. guys I'm so tried. my brain is dead and my Portuguese..... Não bom.  Tudobem, I'm just tugging it out. we start full immersion this week so yk... ill be living in silence for the next 5 weeks.  slowly but surely it is coming along. I am getting faster at understanding words and me and my comp can say the missionary purpose memorized and have it actually sounding good. SO BIG WIN FOR US 


Also, guys i can't gett over how amazing my comp and district is. I have such a deep love for each and every one of them. they truly have made this the best time ever. like I don't even feel like I'm locked up in church prison. I have been having so much fun. we are constantly laughing to the point where we are all crying. everyone adds something amazing to the group and its just amazing to see how close we all become in just a week!!! 


And now I have to dedicate a whole paragraph to my amazing comp sister hoover. or brother hoover ( our district calls us brother hoover and brother Tebbs idk why this started but it did) she is truly an angel sent from god. I don't think being a missionary would be as fun as it is without her. She is so spiritual has and has this way of teaching the gospel that I admire. She is quite literally one of the funniest people i have ever met and now being in person with each other... dangerous combo. I'm shocked we get our work done lol. we are an amazing team however and have grown so much from the short time being companions together. 


Spiritual thought so you can be spiritually feed 🙏🙏🫶


This analogy was given to us in class and it was SO GOOD 

Imagine a train track going two ways one track having one person and the other 10 who are you saving? ..........The 10 

Well imagine the same thing but only this time both tracks only have one person. 

One person represents the savior Jesus Christ, and the other represents you. 

When i truly thought about it , it just made it even more personal to me. I imagined standing on that train track just me and Christ, and watching Christ pull the lever to die for me. Kinda dark but it was so powerful to me

Jesus Christ atonement not only saved the billions but he saved me. And he would do it all again for the one. ( reminded me of Luke 15 ) 

Although we are imperfect and may fall short again, there is more grace, love, and mercy in Jesus Christ than there is failure, flaw, or sin in us. 

I love our savior, and i know that he lived and died for me. 


anywho, love you all, go make someone laugh 💓

  Song of the week- joy by post malone  https://photos.app.goo.gl/ 3XbRZ9tgSZpoDPZz9 ^^^^ photos Weekly  E AÍ gente? Tudo bem??    We started this week off with divisions. We put all four twin mattress together and slept all 6 of us....... that was an experience slept like that for 3 days. Lets just say the rule in the missionary handbook about sleeping in your OWN bed is a rule for a reason.    Divisions itself if im being so honest didnt learn anything new. I had fun tho, the STLS are super nice, but I was also the one leading everything which normally when the STLS are here they are the ones leading becuase we are trying to learn from them ( from my past experience)...... so i was stressing pretty hard when we walked into the first lesson and we all sat in literal silence for about 3 mintues because she was giving me the look of death to speak and start the lesson, but my brain was trying to português and it wasn't portuguêsing and I ended up saying...
