Hey guys sorry I
missed a week but last pday was crazy...
This week we had
tons of fun getting to teach Vinicius and see him progress and grow. He is such
a great friend and really makes a huge difference in my life here. This area is
a little bit hard but people like him make it worth it. This Sunday he was able
to go to church with us and hear me speak. The branch pres asked me to speak on
service and it was lots of fun to give a talk. I love speaking about service
because I have had so many wonderful examples in my life. Sunday I shared of
course principally about the service of our savior and how we can serve to show
our love and dedication. I used Dad as one of the examples and it worked out
really well. Service is what makes the world go round
Saturday we had
the chance to do a service project with the branch president for a family
passing through tons of problems. What we did didn’t by any means solve
everything but was enough to put a smile on the families face and give them at
least a little hope. And hope is the key to faith. Building the lords kingdom
here on earth is building his children and service is one of the best ways we
can manage that.
We also have
another investigator we are working with who also went to church. Her name is
Nayara and she is an excellent person. As a missionary your focus and
vision change... It’s truly amazing to focus and see how the gospel can
specifically help people. When we see issues and problems of people we instantly
make connections in how ordinances and principles like baptism will help their
faith grow which will help them conquer these difficulties. Its something I
hope to carry on after the mission.
Other than that
everything is great. I have transfers coming this next week and then I’m down
to the last two... It’s scary to think I won’t be a missionary forever. But as
the prophet taught, everyone is a missionary. I hope you all have a great week
filled with miracles and opportunities to share your lights. Thank you all for
everything! Love ya´ll!!!
