Carnaval!!

This week was really great and had a lot of little cool moments. I did splits/divisions in Picos the day after Carnaval (carne means meat, so it’s the festival of flesh) and it was litty.

That is why President Lago had all the missionaries work in the morning and go back and stay in their apartments by 4 pm. I saw a bunch of people walking around with grey crosses drawn on their foreheads (Ash Wednesday). Elder Rivero explained that the catholic priest does that cross on people’s heads the day after the festivities to show that they are "repenting" – APOSTASY! Haha.

The most spiritual moment happened while I was in Picos too. I was teaching the first lesson and I was trying my best to make the first vision the spiritual peak and when I got to that part, something came over me and I was so close to crying, but y’all know how hard it takes me to break into tears so I didn’t cry, but I was close.

Anyways, my district is doing a lot better and they were able to do all of their lessons and contacts! Now all they need to improve on is bringing people to sacrament lol. To end things off I got to tell you guys... We baptized Carminha!!

I had my comp throw Maria do Carmon Pereira Sandes in the sacred waters of baptism this past Sunday and her daughter was there to watch... So we’re going to dunk the daughter in the waters of baptism too this next Sunday! Good stuff! Below are some random pictures. Tchau!
