Copa do Mundo

6/18/2018

BRASIL SIL SIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  sadly they didn't win the first game of the cup, but at least it was a tie!  Wow! well let's just first talk about how Brazilians love love love soccer and their country (during the copa do mundo) so basically everything is painted green, yellow and blue. Streamers and flags are everywhere and everyone's got their jersey on!  Its awesome!!! So the first game yesterday we were just casually walking in the  street and it's hilarious because everyone is watching on max volume so you can hear every word even in the middle of the street and then when Brasil scored it was like the world erupted with all the shouts and screams and  ridiculous amount of fireworks. Literally the greatest!!   Hard to do missionary work, but great to see the true Brazilian culture.  We did end up finding a guy who works as a security guard at a shop and we taught the plan of salvation and he loved it and wanted his family to hear all about it. He has two kids at home. Sadly, he doesn’t even live close to our area, but we talked to the elders and other missionaries are for sure going to go find him and his family!!
We also  made a billion cookies this week for our members and made little notes to hopefully get some referrals.  (Thanks Chase for the idea!) 
I've definitely been learning tons and tons about not getting discouraged and to just stay happy even when nothing is really working.  And when nothing is really working,  just remember it's all going to be worth it in the end because we can all be with Heavenly Father again and have joy without end!!



Have a great week!!
