#83 April 9, 2016 Crazy Day!

So this week was awesome! First off conference just rocked! I loved President Monsons talk about the priesthood and how we have the pówer. Sometimes I feel like I really gotta up my faith! I believe if I really could understand my purpose and who i am as a child of god i would be a lot different! Like we really have the power of God! And in D&C 50:26 and 27 it says that if we are pure are things are subject to us just like they are to god as we learn Mornin 7:29 through 30. 

But anyways yesterday was pretty crazy. Cool mission experience though. So we are in a District meeting in the morning and the other district was coming to the same chapel to have a meeting. I got a call twice so the second time i went out to answer it and some sisters from another area in Floripa had called and were telling us we had to run to go help them because something had happened to a sister. They explained were they are and so I went back in and was thinking of grabbing Elder Salomão my comp because that is what would make the most sense but then i just felt like i had to take Elder Sierras. It was really weird and really fast so I grab Sierras and we ran to were the sisters were at in the center. Luckily it was super close so we got there fast. 

But anyways what happened yesterday was there were a series of events that happened that you could clearly see how God was totally prepared for what would happen to help us out. We get to the Sister and she was on the ground and had had some kind of brain attack. She had high blood pressure which caused something wrong in her brain and then basically started shutting her body down and she couldnt breathe. She was all stiff and shaking a long. 

So we get there and I am just thinking, what the heck are we going to do? Give her a blessing in the middle of the road here? There were quite a few people around. And my mind was just kind of like shut down. 

But I love Elder Sierras because the guy can get anything done. And looking back i see why that prompting came to grab him. Sierras has been working since he was 9 years old and really gotten everything he wanted in life for himself. He payed the water and energy bills at home since he was 15 and is just a total stud. He is going to stay in the office for a year and 3 months on his mission! haha. 

So we get there and i am just mentally shut down and sierras saw a police car passing by that i hadnt even noticed. He jumps out in front of the car grabs the cops and tells them we gotta get her to a hospital. (the sisters called an ambulance and they told them that there werent any at the time to come help her so we just would have to wait, that is free health care for ya people). So We get in this cop car and they got us to the hospital really fast! 

So think about that, the lord put cops there at just the right time! There are not a lot of cops here. That isnt normal. So we get there rush here in there and she ended up being okay. 

We later find out the the best cardiolagist (cardiologista heart doctor dont know in english) in brasil, very famous guy here alexandre cury was at the hospital that day because he is moving down here but he is from são paulo and he was the one that treated her. Another huge thing!

So we called president and sister and they were leaving for Videira which is 6 hours away from here. So they run back here and luckily they hadnt gotten far to be able to help out with everything. 

Then while we are waiting in the hospital a few hours later a similar thing happens to another sister and a member rushed her over to the same hospital while president and sister were still there. Both these sisters had payments that werent accepted by our deal we have in brasil so president and sister had to be there to pay or i dont know what would have happened! 

But I am out of time. A lot of other crazy stuff happened this week including a big gun fight were two drug trafficers were shot on the road we had planned to be on but we ended up getting there late.

But God exists. A crazy cuban man found us this week and tried fighting us telling us god doesnt exist. So we testified that he did, Elder salomão testified to him in his awesome african way that if he one day did not repent he unfortunately would have to live the rest of his days in hell and that we didnt want that. But the guy was totally nuts. 

But God exists. Christ is our saviour! He lives and i have no doubt about that. I love my mission for being able to teach me so much about Christ! But i love you all! Happy Birthday Grammie! love you so much! Have an awesome birthday and all of you an awesome week!
