Im in the Ghetto.... 

Fun Fact about my new area.. a part of it was Shut down for about 2 years because of the gang violência and drug trafficing, and just these last few months it was opened up again. So i have the privilégio to work there ...... lets just say even during the day time we dont stay there for long. Its actually sicking how evil the world is and i am ever so humbled to see how people live..... we are so blessed. Wanna share a story that really humbled my heart and gave me prespective of life this week. 

Our Recent convert Carla who lives in this Neighborhood, is a single mom of 4 girls ages 7-21. She stays up all night going threw trash, collecting bottles, cans, plastics, anything of worth, just to try and get extra money for her family.  Then she comes home and takes care of the fam.  We visited them this week and we go over there and there is the CUTEST baby girl... i asked carla when she had another kid?!! She laughs then said shes the neighbors. I watch her majority of the time because Her mom doesn't feed her, beats her, yells at her, and leaves her alone in the house while she is out drinking and sleeping with men... So I told her to always leave her with me .....  ( this girl is 2 and the most precioso and clamest 2yrd I think I ever met ).  Carla has nothing.. and the first thing she always does for those around here is give... I just thought it was incredible. 

Just reallh touched my heart. Also broke my heart a little bit. I made sure to hug that little girl real tightly.

 I just feel so blessed to have the AMAZING family, home, structer and stability of life I have. Guys.. WE ARE SO BLESSED. Literally everyone take a mintue to reflect and give thanks to god. Because there are thouands.. millions of people everyday fighting a battle to just eat, live, ect. And here we are literally complaining about how gas prices are high and how my wifi runs slow, how her/his instagram is soo much cooler and has more following blah blah blah... ...... sometimes I think it is important to wake up. This is me kindly asking everyone to wake up and give thanks to god.  

God is a Women.... 

Probably one of the top 10 craziest lessons Ive had in the mission. 

We go to this media reference house to give him the BOM he requested, and this guy walks out... FATTTEST man ive ever seen. Then we meet his wife.. literally so pretty and a normal person. started teaching them about the BOM and little about the Restoration. This guy then starts going off on the bible and all theses therioes of religon. Hes CRAZY pure blooded Catholic and was telling us the stories of all these saints. I was sitting there basically pooping my pants and praying god would bless me with bible knowledge on the spot... quite frankly I know nothing about the bible. So i was stressing, I Just know the basics. No profound doutrina. But literally before he let us talk he then goes.... " I believe god is a women... and jesus chirst is actually Buda and that he married mary mageline after he ressurreição and had 7 kids with her and lived in Índia. " 

I was so taken back honestly... then he continues explaing to us how this all plays out. Was quite entertaining. A experience I will never forget. 

Ok thats all love you! Have an amazing week. God loves you. Jesus Christ loves you. And i sure love you.
