Much love! This week Presidente Tobias called and called me to be a sister Trainer. This will be a great experience, yesterday I did splits with sister Martins. It will be a great opportunity.I feel blessed be the lord. I will send some pictures of the baptisms we had this weekend. It was Rita and her daughter Sara.It was beautiful, no one ever knows the work put into a baptism. I love you all and ask for your prayers it is not easy, but I love the challenge and I love the Lord.

HEy these last couple of weeks have been great, but a with out a lot of result as far as baptisms, but we have a really neat lady to be baptised this weekend, she is awesome her name is Rita, she is reading the book of mormon and loving it. She accepted our challenge to read it before christmas as we are doing now.
We are preparing for a mission tour with Presidente Soares. It should be excellent. We are preparing as a mission and as individuals that we may truly be blessed as a mission and receive more blessings from the lord.
We are working a lot trying to find families which is the newest challenge from our President it has been a challenge, but I know that the lrod will bless us abundantly.
This week I gave a talk about missionary work in sacrament meeting. How wonderful is the gift of tongues. I believe that really I only said one word wrong in 15 min. Truly the lord has blessed me. I was praying and praying to know how to say exactly what I wanted and I told a story about a miracle that I have had on the mission which was about Cledson, it was touching. I will love to tell all the miracles that have happened here, but it would just take a year.
Something funny is that I am starting to do something that I have never done befoer and that is to talk in my sleep. But it is always about the work, many times I will be teaching. SOmetimes I wake myself up from it, but sometimes it is just Sister Olsen that wakes up, my poor companion. Well, I am not sure maybe this just means that I am immersed in the work, but it is kinda funny! I love you all and pray for you all. Please keep me in your prayers.
Mom I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT IF YOU CAME TO PICK ME UP! just know that okay! I hope that you have the opportunity to real this and konw that it is true! There are many people here that I would love you to meet, people that have helped me learn and grow and develop christlike attributes! I am forever grateful for Brazil!

Well,
it´s a good thing that other people e mail me because my family doesn´t really like to very often, but that is okay I really prefer the letters to the e-mails!
I love you all very much! I have thought a bit about everyone, maybe it is because I am hitting my one year mark in in these next couple of days which of course is really weird, but neat.
I know that i must do more in the next 6 months than I have done in the previous 9! I have goals I need to accomplish and I know that the Lord is the one who will help me in doing so! I think about you all very often, even if I don´t write as often as I should I want you all to know how much I love and think about you all!
I am liking this area a lot! There is a wondeful lady that we are teaching named Rita, she is so good to us and I think that she should be baptised here soon, she came to church the last three weeks and is liking it a whole lot. We are seeing what we can do to help her daughter be baptised this weekend. It should be great! HEr name is sara and if you´d like I would appreciate your prayers in her behalf! Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and I want to know how your talk went annie! I love you all so much! Congrats witht he dance stuff who´d have thought?
