Week #47 – Florianópolis – Episode #16 - Living on an Island



What´s up everyone! Living on an island is pretty funny because it passes through all 4 seasons in one day. It´s very impressive. Anyway it was a pretty great week!

The highlight of this week was that we were able to teach JP´s whole family!! The whole family always goes to English class but it´s hard to teach all of them because they are so busy. But on Thursday we were able to teach the entire family the Restoration and it was such an incredible experience. And even better.. all of them went to church on Sunday and loved it!! We were so happy.

Also this Saturday will be D´s baptism which is pretty exciting. Wednesday we got to her house and she said, I´m going to get baptized! Ha ha so that was cool.

Huge news: I found out that A and P got baptized on Saturday! They are the parents of the boy A that I got to baptize in Jaraguá! Best news everrrrrrr!!!!!

I will finally get to meet President this week so I´m excited for that and then we will have transfers so we will see what happens!

I really like the story in Matthew 14 when Jesus walked on water. When He was on the water, He called Peter to come to Him. It is cool to think about how much faith Peter placed in the Lord in that moment when he stepped onto the water. When we have a goal, we need to put our faith in Christ and just jump out of the boat and go for it. After, Peter saw the winds and got scared and he began to sink. He sunk because he started to doubt. When we are trying to achieve our goals, there will always be difficulties, but if we keep our faith and know what we are capable of with the help of Christ, He will pull us right back up. 

I love you all and hope you have a great week!

Sempre fica firme, forte e feliz!
