This week was good. We just kept working, and working. The only problem is that we only have 1 person with a baptismal date marked for this week. J--------! He is the brother of J-------- that we baptized 2 weeks ago. He is really good, but he has a lot of worries about entering the church and falling away. But he is really prepared to be baptized. We asked if he knew the meaning of chastity, and he said "purity." So that should tell you how long he has been frequenting the church. Put him in your prayers. We have been praying and fasting for him and have faith that he will be baptized this week!
This week started a holiday called São João. I don't really know too much about this holiday. But from what I have gathered, they eat a ton of corn, dance, and have bonfires. Oh yeah, and drink... They try and find any excuse to drink. haha. But they do a ton of different types of corn made a ton of different ways, so it's kind of cool.
The World Cup also starts this week, so we put a flag of Brazil out side of our window at home. Sadly we won't be able to watch the world cup. Maybe if Brasil is in the championship, because literally nobody is in the street when Brasil is playing.... It's pretty crazy. But we will see how it goes.
Oh yeah. Some guy in the street stopped us and started talking about the NBA Finals, and how Kevin Durant is destroying everyone! Why has nobody been keeping me updated on this??? This is important stuff! haha.
But this week was good, and I hope you all have a great one! Love ya'll!
