Hello everyone!! The CTM is going good!! It has been one of the longest weeks of my entire life but I have grown so much closer to Christ and I know that I am supposed to be here!! The flight was really long but I made a new friend and had a lot of time to think. I don´t know where to start and I am almost out of time, so some exciting things that happened; an elder in my zone ate 23 rolls at lunch to win a bet that he could not make it to 25. He threw up at 23 so that was interesting. Today we went to the temple, we drove in a little van and I was terrified for my life the whole way. I prayed most of the way, it was like being a bee and navigating our way through a beehive but none the less it was worth it and the temple was amazing. A CRAZY thing happened, I saw someone I knew from high school! He is in the Sao Paulo west mission which is also where the temple is. I happened to be standing at the front gate when he walked past in a rush to get to a lesson. His name is elder Smith aka Tobin Smith. We were friends in high school so that was super crazy!! No on here speaks English not even the teachers so learning the language is very hard and also sometimes lonely so I would love letters!! I'm sorry if you wrote me personally and I didn´t write you back. They give us no time here and I´m about to get kicked off! this week has been very hard but I know it will get better and I feel comfort everyday. The Lord is so amazing and so is his plan!! I love you all and hope you're doing great. Have a great week and I will talk to you next Friday. Keep the emails coming, I love them!
Love, sister Peine
