Querida família,
Bom dia! So week 1 in Guará I was pretty good. It´s kind of nice because I already have an idea of where everything is having had to come here to take out money from the bank every two weeks and having spent a day here with the elders. The city is pretty small so it´s easy to walk everyday. Even if our appointments don´t work out as effectively as we would like, it doesn´t take too much effort to go there and then head in another direction afterwards. The worst part about the city is that it´s more expensive than Guará II! I don´t know how that´s possible because they are practically the same city, but things are definitely more expensive.

Church
yesterday was good. The ward is really great and willing to help out
which will be nice. I ran into all of the members from Guará II during
church which made me happy :) They were all kidding around that I
abandoned them haha. The funniest part was when primary got out. All the
kids came running up to me yelling "Sister Kerr! Sister Kerr!" and gave
me hugs. Seriously, I don´t think I ever heard one kid say my name when
I was actually part of the ward haha. All of a sudden they remember my
name and I became their best friend!
Sister
P. Gonçalves and I have already seen some miracles. A recent convert
named Delmar has been trying for a couple of months to get his wife to
talk with the missionaries but she hasn´t been interested. We managed to
meet her on Saturday and spent 2 hours talking with them just getting
to know them and whatnot. She is super awesome! Elder Sowards, who was
the elder here and is now our district leader, was really happy when we
told him. We also have a family home evening marked with another
investigator, Raimunda, who wasn´t too fond of the elders haha.
I
feel like a new person in Guará I. I had a hard time breaking out of my
shell in Guará II because it was my first area. I have a clean slate
here and am starting out on a good foot :)
Oh
yeah, I think the absolute worst thing about Guará I is the fact that
my apartment is next to a gym. Every morning and night I have to look
out my window and see people working out. I am so jealous!! And they
play a lot of American music so it has kind of been distracting my
studies because I start singing along without realizing haha.
Anyway, sorry for writing a novel! Hope everyone is doing well!!
Love,
Sister Kerr
