Dear Restrepo Family,
Today we had our
missionaries over for dinner and we were happy to learn more about Sister
Restrepo , her family and her motivation to be here. How she wanted to be an
example to her brother and how she decided to come on a mission after teaching
with the sister missionaries one day and how much her mother cried with her
when she said she was going to serve. And how her father cried and still cries
everyday.... ( fathers...) We always see a discreet smile on her face at
church but today we got a glimpse of her mischief... we can see there's so much
more to her, a beautiful and vibrant
young woman. We are happy that she came and she certainly brought her testimony
with her .We love her dearly even though she's been here for such a short time.
We hope to keep her for a while. She's great example to our 5 year old
daughter, Joana.
By the way, we are Cláudia
( the Mom wearing glasses) , Francisco ( the Dad going bald), Tomás ( the 9
year old brain in the family) and Joana ( the 5 year old princess/ drama
queen).
We are the Coelho's
and we absolutely love our boisterous band of missionaries/ rock stars.
Thank you for your
sweet girl. You must be so proud of her!
Love,
Os Coelhos
