This week was rough.  Sister Horn has been feeling worse.  We took her to the doctor and he didn´t know what it was.  He told us it was probably a virus and gave us an antiboitic for her to take.  We´ll see President Jackson this Thursday at Multizona, we are hoping he will have some ideas.  She has very little energy and her body hurts all over.  She feels really nautious all the time.  It´s been really hard for her to work.  The irmãs in the ward weren´t able to do as many divisions with us this week, so we didn´t work too much.  I hope we can get her feeling better soon.  I feel like such a slacker.

Regardless of hard circumstances, the Lord has blessed us so much.  Alfredo was so excited for baptism, and even though we couldn´t get out of the house a lot, he made it possible for us to take care of everything necessary for his baptism to happen.  We were able to visit him when we needed to and take care of all the little baptism details.  It was a beautiful baptism.  He thanked us again and again for our patience with him and for helping him get to that step.  He´s 56 years old.  We are hoping to help Cida, his wife, take the same step soon too. 

Haha....so I just wanted to share kind of a funny story.  At least, I got a kick out of it.  We have a back porch behind our house were I keep all my shoes.  I went back there and put my sandles on and let out a little yelp of pain because they were so hot!  The sun had been shining on them and they had gotten really hot.  Sister came out to see what happened, and I laughed and told her my sandles were really warm.  She replies "well sister....maybe you shouldn´t put your sandles out in the sun"  I said, "but the sun wasn´t there when I put them out here....it moved"  Sister Horn, being the very smart person she is replied "no sister...the sun doesn´t move the EARTH moves"  I then decided to tease her back and said "how do you know??? maybe the scientists are all wrong and really it IS the sun that moves!  Not the earth!"  She laughed and rolled her eyes at me and that was the end of it. 

Then.....later that same day in personal study, I found I scripture that gave me a good chuckle. Helman 12:15.  Looks like the Lord was trying to nip that thought of false doctrine in the bud...

haha

Love you!
