I Got Robbed!

This week was the most exciting week of my life! Last pday we had pday with the district and so that was a party. Tuesday we walked até o pó but it paid off because we met some amazing people looking to change their lives. Wednesday Maria com cabela vermelha told us she knows the Book of Mormon is true and it was so sweet. Thursday we ran into Isadora (an old investigator of sister Love and I) and she is still reading the Book of Mormon and wants to be baptised. Friday we got robbed.  Saturday I taught my filha how to yell on the bus about the church. Sunday we had 6 people come to church! I love being a missionary.

But here´s what happened during the robbery:

Sister Negreiros and I were waiting to cross the highway on our way to Jerson´s house and this guy on his motorcycle drove up the side of the rode and almost hit us so of course I moved out of the way but he just got even closer to us so I was extremely confused and in my mind I was wondering what in the world this dude was doing. But then he told us to give him our cell phones and that he wasn´t kidding. Then I realized we were getting robbed and got super scared but I remembered in the missionary hand book it says not to resist robberies so I took our little brick of a phone out of my pocket and said, `você quer isso?` (you want this?´ and he looked at it and basically said `you´ve got to be kidding me no I don´t want that you can keep it` and then he asked us who we are. THEN he took off his helmet to talk to us! I think I would be a better theif than this guy was. But anyway the only thing he ended up taking from us was our number so he could learn more about the church. BUT THEN Sunday rolls around and HE CAME TO CHURCH. His name is Tiago. Needless to say, the gospel changes lives.

Stay safe out there. 

Have a great week everyone, I love you all!! Remember how much your Heavenly Father loves you :) até mais!!
