This whole week I planned on getting online to update this blog. For some reasons I would get good ideas to post and experiences to share. But as I didnt, now they dont come to my mind in the same way... so I better get new ones and learn the lesson: once it is there cacth it.. if not it is gone!

Btw, what a delightful week! actually I would start with the weekend.Much services done... starting on Friday with the organization of a dance activity for the Married Couples of our Stake, the YSA worked hard but also had a great time! Saturday we were able to end our Religion Institute classes for the year and I missed the great last dance of the year for being in also a very outstading place -I was able to be at and enjoy the Young Women of our stake present their musical #s for EXELENCIA DAS MOCAS - in english that would be some thing called as Young Women Excelence ... the Holy Spirit did hit me so strong with that presentation! testifying to me that WE TRULLY ARE DAUGHTERS of GOD! We are his divine childreen!

Sunday we had two baptisms in our ward! ...I like to look for rainbows whenever that is rain...

Got confess that I feel as cant complain about my life at all and I am able to see the hands of God always so present! But I also see myself knowing that somehing bigger has to come to pass. ok ok... slow down, I am not directing this to marrige.. ok? just feel as I want to progress more and faster comparing to right now!

- what, me anxious? yeah right -

Be a return missionary to me is one of the very greatest blessings ever.... NOW I have to learn how to live as one! not comparing myself with before the mission, neighter as a missionary, but still as a RM! full of puporse and new challenges and blessings to face.

yeah! His plan is PERFECT! just got to keep that in mind constanly and live it as it is! ;)

Going to the Temple once a month is so essencial to me! I trully feel charged and more secure about where I stand, who I am and what is expected of me! Everytime I go I think about those great Sister missionaries I was able to serve with in Temple Square and how so many of them dont have that great blessing of a Holy Temple so close by - the one I go to is the Curitiba one, about 3 to 4 hours north from Floripa.

COME WHAT MAY AND LOVE IT!

“It is the responsibility and blessing of each of us to strengthen our families and homes. Each of us is in a different family situation. Some families have a mother and father with children at home. Some couples no longer have children at home. Many members of the Church are single, and some are single parents. Others are widows or widowers living alone.

No matter what our family looks like, each of us can work to strengthen our own families or help in strengthening others.” - Sister Julie B. Beck

I Dedicate this Blog to all the most important people in my life! You must be wondering who they may be...

As I was a child I had my family, specially my mother, as the most important people in my life. They still are but some other people have been added to this, we may say, "group"!

On the year of 2002 I did my first abroad travel, to New Zealand - Aoteora as a Exchange/International Student. There I discorved a very special new world! full of challenges which made me grow and appreciate all I had back home and also those great people who made my experience as an exchange student for a year, so special and unique! The Evans family, Claudia Pinto, Rose, Silvinha, Mônica, Luly, Karina and so many other people!

In 2004 my family and I did gain a new family, actually it was a extension to ours and at the same time a family which we always belong to but didnt know. This family is called The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

In 2008, to be even more specific - on my bday Feb 4th 2008 - I reported to a full time mission at the Provo MTC to serve in Utah SLC Temple Square Mission! then I met thousands of people - I really mean, THOUSANDS! on November 2008 I went to Nevada Las Vegas Mission where I served for 3 tranfers - meaning 4 and a half months, there I met hundreds ... The thousands and hundreds also have been added to this "group" which I mentioned in the very beguinning of this post.

On July 23rd 2009 I retuned home from my beautiful mission and again retuned to the arms of my mother, who - if you remenber - was the first to be the most important person of this "group"! family and friends again together!

So... if you may be my mum, or part of my blood family, or part of any of those mentioned people above... this Blog is dedicated to ya!

This "group" is a open to add more and more people.. who I know will continuing to bless my Earthly life as a Daughter of a Divine King, called God!
