I Love Garanhuns!!


Happy Monday everyone!!!

Well, I'm gonna be totally honest- there's not a whole lot to tell this week. Winter is coming here in Garanhuns, and believe it or not, it's actually pretty cold. This is the coldest city here in Pernambuco, and I was lucky enough to be here during summer, and now that winter is starting, I'll probably get transferred soon. It worked out great! :) The only problem with winter on its way, is that literally everyone here is getting sick. The change in the weather has left everyone with a cold... including me. It was a couple of days of sickness in our house, but it's starting to look better for us all, so for that I'm super grateful. :) The only problem is we have to keep working, even in the rain, so it takes a little bit longer to get better than normal. But, tudo bem. tudo bem. :)

Because I don't have a whole lot else to tell, I'll tell you a funny story that happened this week. We stopped by to visit a woman that we've talked to a couple of times, and when we got there, her brother answered the door along with her two little kids. He said that Fernanda wasn't home, but almost immediately after saying this, her 2 year old daughter came over to me and said "Mommy doesn't want to talk to you guys! She's hiding in the bedroom!" hahahaha. We were sad for this woman to be lying to us, but it was so funny and cute the way the little girl told us this, that it was hard to stay sad. I sure do love little kids! :)

Sorry to not have more to say! I'm sure there'll be more to talk about next week!!

Love you all! Have a fantastic week!

Love,
Sister Shelton

Alma 37:36-37
36 Yea, and cry unto God for all thy support; yea, let all thy doings be unto the Lord, and whithersoever thou goest let it be in the Lord; yea, let all thy thoughts be directed unto the Lord; yea, let the affections of thy heart be placed upon the Lord forever.
37 Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.
