Life is pretty worry free to say the least. I am happy as
always serving the Lord. The only BIG bummer is that the U.S didn´t qualify for
the world cup so that is depressing. But I´ll be staying another transfer here
in Concórdia with Elder Sanchez and I am pretty hyped because we are going to
see a lot of fruits this transfer.
It also rained every day
this week which made things interesting but this time we had an umbrella. So
this week was for sure a success. We had some great first lessons with new
investigators and helped our current investigators to progress.
Matheus, who is one of our newer investigators accepted
baptism for Nov. 11! He is 16 and he really is the man. He understands
everything really well and is loving going to church.
Igor and Patricia are getting married and baptized this week
so that will be awesome!
Thursday we had a Family home evening with Francinete. We
took the Relief Society President with us and it went super well. We talked
about why we have difficulties during this life and how we can overcome them.
She went to church yesterday and loved it!!
On Saturday we didn´t have anyone to visit after 5pm so we
went a neighborhood and just started talking to people on the street and
clapping doors. One house we passed had the cutest little girl on the balcony
so I said ``Oi´´ and she said “oi “ back. We stopped and asked if her parents
were home and she ran inside and got her dad. Her dad told us to come on up and
that his wife would be getting home from work any minute. They are seriously
the nicest family ever! They are looking for a religion to follow because they
aren´t really happy with the Catholic Church. Marcos and Janaína were
definitely the miracle of the week. They said if they receive an answer, they
will be baptized.
That Saturday we didn´t have one person say no to us so it
was an incredible day haha. And then Sunday we decided to go back to the same
neighborhood because of the success we had Saturday and after about 2 and a
half hours of contacting, not a single person said yes hahaha. That´s life
though.
We are still trying to figure out when we can baptize Ana,
Ruan, and Carlos because Ana is having serious health problems so please pray
for her. If she doesn´t get better soon we will baptized Ruan and Carlos and
then baptize her when she gets better.
Sending love from Brazil to you all!! Have a great week!
