Well, things have gotten way crazier. We had a normal first couple days of the week, working like crazy. We are starting to really see fruits of our labor. The other day, we taught Raisa for the first time. She is 24 years old and listened really well to the first lesson. We carefully explained the purpose of the Book of Mormon and how it proves that we have a prophet today. She totally accepted the Baptismal invitation as well! She then told us she would have time to read the next day, and that we could come back the next day! It was awesome!


The other day, We also found some really awesome new people to teach. We were really excited to go back, but when we got hone, the secretaries called us. All missionaries are now in a 14 day social isolation because of Corona Virus. The next day, we received 200 reais to go to the supermarket and buy all the food we needed. We have so much food now! We also received and huge crate of food from the mission that is only to be opened at President's direction. Today is our second day of quarantine. It’s going to be all right. We can leave to go to the chapel and buy stuff if we really need to. I sat down with Elder Ellingson to map out these two weeks so that we will still be productive. We are going to work hard on Portugues, Pregar Meu Evangelho, the Book of Mormon, and get ready for General Conference. I think it is going to be a good 2 weeks, but I just want to be working!
