The Blind Leading the Blind

Okay, soooooo, in case no one has spread the news, President G called me last monday and told me that I would be training.....

Im sorry, what was that? I dont speak Portuguese......?

Yep, not only would I be training for the first time buuuut I would be training a sister who spent one year in the field already in the US and was waiting for her visa that came when she hit her year and 3 week mark. So Im a 9 month missionary training a missionary whos older than me who doesnt speak portuguese but knows how to be a better missionary....

Can we say that this is the epitome of the blind leading the blind??? 

Her name is Sister J and shes awesome! Very much different from Sister M in the sense that shes not as crazy (in a good way!) and easily readable, but shes wonderful! Exactly what I needed. I had ironically told Pres G (before I got the call I would train) how the talk Mountains to Climb really touched me & how Id been thinking about it for that week. Not 30 minutes after I sent him that letter to the President that he told me I would train.

When Sister J was sitting through the presentation for the new missionaries in our mission, he squeezed my shoulder and said softly that he knows she has more time on the mission than me but that he trusts me and is confident in me and gave me that Daddy smile.

Everythings gonna be alright but for heavens sake keep me and Sister J in your prayers! I dont know what Im doing and I dont wanna mess this up or lose the confidence of my President/Brazilian father!

Heres a pic of me & sister j

love you all!
