God is Good all the time
Weekly 
( Funny Stories and HUGE Miracles this week will be a longer more detail email)
Pray for my comp lol ( pray for me to have more charity and patience frfr)
The amount of times she has almost gotten killed by a moto or a bus or almost falling off a Mountain side bc she will just walk without looking or thinking..... too many times. If I wasn't by her she would be dead. List goes on, and more on top of that. Have a lot I can say but god is really teaching me about kindness, PATIENCE, pure Christ like love, and most importantly preparing me for the best motherly wifely instincts and skills on this planet earth. Welp story is, we were in a bus heading to our area and it was super full. I look at may who was a few people smashed behind me and I yelled in ENGLISH " we got to get off here". So I rang the line, repeat myself again, and looked at her. the bus stops. I squeezed my way out and was standing on the sidewalk. I heard the bus start to leave and I start walking and I look to my side to talk to Sis may, and she's not there. Then I look to my other side she's not there. I look behind me She's NOT THERE.......... i looked up and see her in the back of the bus with her hand on the window staring at me as the bus is flying down the street about to turn the corner. 
I stood there for a solid 5 minutes pretty annoyed just because I don't understand how she thinks and is at times.. ( just been a really hard transfer with her but I'm genuinely ok ) but then I just started laughing. Literally was something straight out of a movie was so ridiculously funny. Frist 5 minutes of alone time I think I've had in 14 months. I then turned the corner to her running back to me ahaha.
Marcos 
This is a huge tender mercie for me! When I was in Nova Era me and sister Naveros were teaching our friend Marcos. He was one of the most elect people I have probably taught in my mission. He was just so ready for the gospel and accepted all the lessons and all our invites even baptism. However, Marcos sent us a message a few days after we confirmed a date with him that he decided he needed to go back to war and would be going to Ukraine to help with the war. ( he apparently goes and volunteers in wars around the world... i didn't know you could do that but he's done it 2 times already for Israel and Ukraine.) He left us his email and asked us to stay in contact and still send him inspired messages while he was away. This week I got an email from him saying that he needed to do one last mission then he would be coming back home to brasil. He come home this week, alive thankfully 
and I helped him get in contact again with the elders in my old area 
HE ALSO SURPRISED ME AND CAME TO MY CHURCH to visit was awesome!!!
Só Águas 
Friday I could describe in one word.... Mircles. Starting off great, just woke up happy and like SO FOCUSED. This day we had planned to have a member be with us. Sarah is 16, and is in the other ward but she LOVES to help out in the missionary work but she cant leave with the elders so she comes with us! She wants to serve a mission too and it shows. Girl was a power house teacher. Literally I was so humbled and embarrassed that she taught better then me but then It turned into so much gratitude for her help and just was so touched by her spirit and love of christ and this work. Would not be surprised if I see her in General Conference one day in the future.
During this day we found one super cool lady that was a straight hand of god moment And marked 2 baptisms dates with our friend sabrina and leandro.
was a great day, we were so blessed.
Sabrina
We meet Sabrina about 2 weeks ago and had a super powerful lesson on the Restoration and first vision. Later that night she messaged us and said she knew it to be true. We then got ghosted by her for like 2 weeks 
so we walked into this lesson this week with plans to most likely cut her. We basically did an invite with faith. We taught Lição 3 the gospel of Jesus Christ and we had a VERY spiritual lesson. When we invited her to be baptized she literally respond with " this is all so good why would I say no? ". I was genuinely so shocked. Wasn't expecting that from her at all. But so happy she said yes 
Leandro 
I have been fasting and praying on how I could help Leandro finally commit to a set baptism date and really help him progress more. I had a few scriptures come to my head and planned it out with sister may and we also talked about making him a baptism Calendar and setting goals with him to once and for all stop coffee, beer, and the excuse " I don't feel ready ". We spent about 3 hours making this chart for him eliminating all excuses. We said prayer after prayer on the way to his house. But once we got to the house and was feeling out the vibes .... we both had the feeling it wasn't time to share. So we both started shuffling threw our scriptures trying to find a topic to teach. Then out of NOWHERE Leandro sits down at the table and goes " sisters I really wanna get baptized......". I LOOKED UP SO FAST AND RAN to my bag and grabbed his calendário de batismo before he could even say another word and slammed it on the table in front of him and with all the joy and confidence in the world me and sister may explained " we have it all planned out for you!!!". He picked it up and WAS BEAMING he.... started crying. He absolutely loved it and accepted the date to be baptized. He was sooo excited he sent a picture to everyone he knew, and afterwards called us a pizza to celebrate the moment! We explained the plans and then proceed to read the scriptures the spirit told us to share. Was a lesson I will never forget. he came to church on Sunday exclaiming to EVERYONE he will soon be a member of the church of Jesus Christ my heart was so full.
The Leandro I met on the first day was a very lost, depressed, going threw a divorce, Addicted to Cocaine with little to no hope for his future. However, he had enough faith to listen to us because he felt our love our spirit and knew we were called of god. We shared with him the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ and Joseph smith... with tears down his eyes he looked at us and said " god sent you both to me.. I needed to hear this". From then on me and Sandin Helped him go to Addiction recovery meetings with the church ( got him off drugs) taught him the wonderful, and hopeful, beautiful message of the gospel. And slowly with each visit, and call we saw the light and joy coming back to him. He is not the same person. The joy in his eyes, his spirit is SO bright and strong. The change I have seen in him will forever imprint my heart. I am just full of joy and have so much gratitude to know God was able to use me in this process to help one of his beloved children. I am also just so happy for Leandro and the blessings he will receive. Everyone please continue to pray for him for extra faith and strength during this time!!!
I can testify, god is in the workings of everything. Everything truly is on his time.
I have been able to see this first hand in the mission the wonderful workings of our Heavenly father. HE IS THERE. HE IS AWARE OF US. HE HAS A PLAN. TRUST.
I know threw the atonement of jesus chirst, threw his divine power and grace it is never to late.... he is there waiting for us to come unto him. We can change. Jesus Christ Atonement gives us that power to change. I know my savior lives. I know this church is true. This is the church of joy.
In the name of jesus christ amen.
