2 Fatty Miracles (Week 69) — Called to Serve in Cuiaba

Holy nuts this whole entire week was just a brawl against sleep hahaha. We have been walking so much to get to that other freaking area that we feel like we need to work in. One night we were up late, brain capacity decays at a surprising rate after 10:30pm on the mission. We ended up glueing elder Nye's shoes to the floor and he wasn't a super big fan of that hahah.

On my mission I have learned a super special lesson. Its been really special to see how being kind and loving just generates more kindness and love. There have been some insanely gnarly mind bogglingly annoying people that I have met on my mission haha and every time I have reacted in a way that was not kind or loving, it always comes back to bite me right in the tush. There isn't a better way to respond to any situation than just being a homie and trying to understand where the person on the other side is coming from. I have noticed that as I do this my life is just happier. I don't really have hard feelings toward anyone and I just wake up, really freaking tired hahaha, but nonetheless, happy. I can honestly say that I have gained a true testimony of my Savior through loving those around me.

This week we had 2 fatty miracles in the work. That one old lady member who used the umbrella because she's a racist has a friend who she has brought to church a couple times and we had a lesson with her and she said she wants to get baptized on the 28th! So gnarly hahah God is the coolest. Also Romeo said he's wanting to get baptized and were helping him find a nice date. Chahoooo!

This week was the Primary Program and there's nothing better than a bunch of little kids singing in a different language I loved it so much haha. The Spirit just was so abundant dang I love the little kids.

Much love my brethren.

Elder Rodrigues is going home. You will be missed

Elder Nye's shoes glued to the floor haha
