So this week was great! we had to work
really hard because on Thursday we had our Zone Conference in Caicó! it was the
last Zone Conference of President and Sister Soares!! It was really sad and
trunky but it was an amazing conference. I received a lot of answers to my
prayers and to the problems that I have been having! One experience that I had
was that of a Missionary who gave his testimony, Elder M. Fernandes, because he
is going home at the end of this transfer. He started to bare his testimony
about the Book of Mormon, and I just felt such a strong feeling in my heart and
a confirmation that The Book of Mormon is true. It was a such a powerful surety
I know that I can´t deny the truthfulness of this book. The last Saturday I
finished The Book of Mormon in Portuguese so I did what Moroni asked all of us
to do, to pray about and ask to know if these things are true that are written in
the book of Mormon, I got my answer through the testimony of another
missionary!! It was so nice to see that Heavenly Father sempra answers our
prayers and that he is always caring for me. I had another experience with
prayer this week. So I’m living with Sister Mulberry and sometimes we joke a
little and talk in English. sister trage also knows English really well so we
practice. But because of that I was losing a little bit of my Portuguese and
people in the street were saying that they don’t understand me and all that.
Even Sister M Silva said that...but yeah so I got a little discouraged and
prayed to have the gift of tongues and to have patience with myself learning
another language and all that. So this week, one day, we stopped to talk with
some people in the street and at the end of the conversation one guy asked me
how much time I have in Brazil and I said 10 months, and he was like woooaah no
way, Would’ve thought that you had more time because of the way you talk with
such fluentness...WHHATTTTT just yesterday I was talking to some girl who was
saying that she didn’t understand one word that I was saying and now I´m like
fluent!!! haha it really was a confidence booster and the answer to my prayers
that I needed.
I will talk about some people that we are
teaching...just a little cause I don’t have a lot more time. Libio and his wife Patricia! They are
married legally and Libio came to church yesterday and was participating and
everything and all the members were like `so when are going to be
baptized...`LETS GOOO BATIZADORES!!!! haha. We haven’t taught him anything yet because
we met him on Friday, but we left him a pamphlet of the Plan of Salvation because
he said that his Dad passed away recently without notice, so yeah we´re going
to help him and his family.
Fabiano...he came to church just because we
invited him Saturday night. When we passed by his house Sunday morning he was
finishing taking a shower and when he got all dressed he was like, lets go and
he started to walk super rapido to church haha and then he was like some people
invited me to go to a fiesta but I thought it would be better to go to church!!
We also have some other people, Joâo
Victor that wants to be baptized but his mom wont let him. Marinaldo says
he´s taking his time and when Deus touched his heart he will be baptized.
We have some great people that we are
teaching and we are excited for this week and for EVERYONE that came to
church!!!
This week I fed a little monkey Goiaba
a banana! DREAMS COME TRUE!!!!
haha LOVE YOU ALL!!! have a great week!!!
-Love
