  Here's your weekly schpeel of random sister max highlights, enjoy! - Watched an ambulance leave a house, went up right behind it and offered to say a prayer with the family. They gladly accepted and then wouldn't let us leave for 20 minutes because it was raining.  -  did a split in my dear Lauro de Freitas with Sister Vergara! My heart was so happy!! - we got like 15 young boys to play soccer at the chapel! milagres! - keep the prayers coming for Maiana, Diego, Carmen, Rose, and Rejane so that they can make some covenants soon!! - the most important highlight... our temple got DEDICATED!!!! Wahoo!! Let's go make some covenants and make these families ETERNAL! Elder Anderson gave a beautiful message and dedicatory prayer in some portunol, and the temple sessions are already booked. We are so excited to see the miracles that a dedicated temple will bring to the saints and pesquisadores of the Bahia! - During the dedication, there were some technical difficultie...

helloooo my friends! the highlights: - the sisters wore green to MLC and president loved it. At the end he told us that he had to get a picture with his "palmeiras sisters" - split with Camacari 1! - we also had zone conference this week which was so so good! Instead of giving us advice for how to improve the work, president read off a list of "things to do to waste your mission" which I think hit harder. - got to see Ana and Alice from my last area again for a hot second! - a member brought a friend to church! - despite spending only about 1 1/2 days in my area this week, we found so many new friends! - Had the most iconic zone zoom call making the elders make eggs and grab their microwaves - At zone conference we sang the song "Lord I would follow Thee". And man it just hit me to the core.  verse 4: Savior may I love my brother As I know thou lovest me, Find in Thee my strength, my beacon, For Thy servant I would be.

Now the Bahians can go back to their normal paredãos and find new excuses to not have time for us. - ok, let's just say that conference was bomb. Like wow guys. I could go on and on. But questions were answered, revelation was received, and spirits were changed! Oh gloria! - We will have to go back and watch a few talks though, because at one point a member's drunk husband was trying to tell us to eat more churrasco  - one of my favorite talks from conference was Sister Kristin M. Yee's. She s...
