I hope everyone had an incredible week and an amazing fourth
of July!! The Americans in my ward but a ton of fireworks and launched them on
the beach and I wasn´t there but they said 100 people came to watch so
that is pretty cool.
This week was actually super good!
First off starting with the fact that our new President cut
all of my last President´s rules, so now we can do normal stuff! Today we went
on a hike and played spike ball on the beach with the Americans and it was a
blast. Before we couldn´t play any sports or use normal clothes on P-Day so I am
super happy.
I spent the evening of the 4th teaching a family that I have
come to love so much. D, L, and W. They are very humble but so
smart and understand everything so well. We taught the Gospel of Christ and invited
them to baptism and they accepted! Pretty hype but they still have to get
legally married which will take a while. But at least they have the desire.
A while ago I talked about a 14 year old investigator named
D, who´s parents are members, but have been inactive for a while. The
first time we invited her to be baptized her mom freaked out and said we were
pressuring her so we have been kind of taking it easy. This week we finished
teaching her the lessons and then her mom looked at us and mouthed ´´ask her to
be baptized´´. We just looked at each other really shocked haha, but she will
be baptized July 22. They have come to church 5 Sundays in a row now so that is
super awesome.
Lastly is a A and V, another family that I
love sooooo much. A was baptized when he was 16, but was inactive
for a while and V isn´t a member. The problem is that they aren´t legally
married so she can´t get baptized until that happens. The other day they were
giving us a ride home and they were saying how they were planning their
wedding!! We were so happy! Sadly we won´t be here for it but we know that we
did our part. A is so grateful for us and they have us over every
Sunday night for dinner. Last week they made us some bomb fish called Tainha
and last night they made us some huge gourmet hamburgers. They are the best!
Well that´s pretty much it for this week! Love you all as
always!!
John 16:33
´´These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might
have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I
have overcome the world.´´
Sempre fica firme, forte e feliz!!
