Sister Rachael Collins - Brazil Curitiba Mission

hey hey hey!!! okay so this week felt super long but its okay it waas a good one! I have to start with the story of the Japanese man bc its wayyyy to funny!! Okay so we got a contact from like  mormon.org  or something from the church so we were like so excited, but the address wasnt valid, it was number 65 but there wasn't one, there was a 67 and a 55 so we just decided we would try both and see if they just put in the address wrong, so we tried 67 and they just told us to go away, and then we tried 55. This old Japanese man comes out and we are trying to talk to him but he could not understand us for the life of him, so he asked where we were from and we said the United States, and right when we said that all emotion left his face and he just yells, I HATE YOU!!!!! then he made a gun with his hand and is just screaming that if he had a gun right then that he would kill us and that if he sees us walking on the street he will either put us in his car and kill us or he will hit...

WEDDING BELLS!!!! DING DING DING!!!!!! our investigator stephanya and javier are getting married!!!! wahoooo!! they didn't know if they were going to break up or if they would get married, they've been fighting alot but they have a baby together so I prayed every night that they would figure it out, AND THEY DID!! we were visitiing one night and javier stood up and said he needed to do something and BAM! right there he got on one knee and proposed!!! I was sooooo pumped!!! so I stood up and just starting bursting out singing happy birthday in portugese and was dancing, haha idk why happy birthday it just came and I went with it but yeah that was awesome, they are so great. then later in the week one of my bug bites started getting a little freaky, like really gross but like at home I never went to the doctor for anything so I didn't think anything of it, then one of the members saw it on my ankle and flipped!! They said it was a crazy spider bite from a brown spider, they k...

ITS CHOCOLATE!! holy goodness its good, a investigator made some for us and i was in heaven! we made her pancakes and she ate like 15! haha i love that they think im a good cook bc i make things they dont know how but really in the states a 8 year old can make them haha but its okay they dont have to know that. anyways, This week was soooo fast, but like i dont know why bc it actually was a hard week! we didnt get too many contacts this week so the week was pretty slow, and a baptism didn't happen, so that was sooo sad! but actually better bc he wasn't ready..still sad tho. the language is coming slowly and slowly everyday, sometimes i think its getting worse but sis williams says thats not true, but i think she has to say that. anyways, like i said, this week hasnt been to eventful, oh also! this one recent convert, got hit by a car this week!
