Week #78 - Lages - Episode #12 - Round 3

The weather this week has been sooooo nice. It´s supposed to be summer here but it was been kind of chilly and man am I grateful!

This week was pretty decent. We got to teach a guy we contacted on the street named Moises. He was limping on the street and I was just like ´´Dude are you alright?´´ haha and we started talking. We were teaching him the Restoration and out of nowhere his mom is standing next to us helping us to teach! She was literally like another missionary as we taught about prophets, Christ´s ministry, and the great apostasy.  When we got to the First Vision, we told her that this is the good news we bring and why we leave everything for two years. Moises and his mom were really moved by our message. Hopefully they can progress.

Another day our plans had fallen through and we didn´t know exactly what to do. We thought of teaching a guy that we met at  a member´s tire shop that said we could visit him. We didn´t know where he lived so we called Irmão José, but he said that he had separated  from his wife and moved out so he doesn´t know where he lives anymore. We kept walking around trying to find someone to teach and we went to this street that we had never been to.  As we were walking, the guy comes out of his house!! We were so amazed, haha,  we got to teach him and his sister and it went really well.

On Wednesday we had a ward activity and we were in charge to set it up. We stood the pews up on their sides and made a maze connecting them using paper. It turned out really cool and I felt like I was in student council again. We put distractions in the maze to keep people from finding the way out and compared it to the Tree of Life. If anyone has any good ideas for ward activities let me know because we want to do another one!

Also we got transfer news and we will both be staying for our 3rd transfer together,  I´m excited and really hoping to see the fruits of our labors. 

Lastly I got news that Vanessa, a lady from Florianópolis, got baptized! Elder Montero and I reactivated her husband and they finally got married! 

Have a great week!
