Last Week of Training

Here are some pictures of me.
-I found a factory here that said Oregon on it. What are the odds? 
-Also, the chalkboard of our english class. It has the english word- then the portuguese translation- then one of the brailian elders who speaks quite a lot of english writes how you would write the pronunciation in portuguese. I thought they were quite funny. I will send some more pictures in another email because i can only send about 2 in each email.
-Also- thank you so much for this share the love shirt. Best surprise ever.













This week I start my last week of training! Crazy. I don't have a lot of stories from this week and am short on time but i want you all to know that i love you! Miracles are real and the gospel is true. We had an open house at the church building this week to show people around so that when they come, they already know what the building looks like. It was really great and is always special when people can feel the spirit in the chapel. This week was called SENIOR WEEK. It is week 11 of training and the person being trained (me) acts as the senior companion. Plans all of our days activities, carries the phone, and takes control of all teaching situations. Sounds casual right? Nope. It was terrifying but it is over and i learned a lot.

We had 242 contacts this week which was a true miracle and a blessing. We are having another family home evening tonight with a group of families who does it together every week but switches which house it is at. They all keep each other accountable and it is really fun.

I finished 3 Nephi this week also and it was so special to read the literal words of the Savior. This week we taught Gabriella. She is truly amazing and i will explain her story later but she is learning about the gospel and has already finished 2 nephi. What? Let us all follow her example and not take for granted the gospel that we have.

Have a fantastic week and I will see you all next week for transfers. Love you!
