I Am Off to Brazil!

This week has been medical training. It has been really informative for those of us who are considered medical ( physicians, nurses, and mental health advisors). The hotel we were in was very nice and the food was good- but it was 8 hours a day of nonstop technical information. It has been exhausting for all of us senior missionaries! We are up at 6:30 every day, and it was like being given information through a firehose every day. I thought I was the only one who was overwhelmed, but I found out that everyone is! 😁 That made me feel better! 

We have missionaries in our group going to the US, South America, Australia, and Fiji. Those of us who are off to South America leave today, while those going to the states left yesterday afternoon. We are like leaves blowing to the four winds!🍂🍁

A highlight of this week was being with friends and family. I got to go to church in my old ward and see friends there. Joseph and Rosa had me for dinner on Sunday and helped me run errands (I don’t have my car now).  

 

 

 

 

My Brazilian friends, Silvio and Norma and their children, came to see me and brought gelato!
