Week 39

Monday, September 10, 2018

This week was amazing and stressful all at the same time. It started with a pday that we worked because we had people who could only meet on that day. And so it felt like two weeks without a break. But we got a lot done. We had a baptism of one of the twins yesterday and I think the other twin and their cousin will be baptized this Saturday. That way they will all be confirmed together. It all came through in the end though and we will continue to witness miracles with them. I shared the account of Alma the older and the waters of Mormon. The book of Mormon really has a power that is unlike anything else. So that was the highlight of this week. 

Funny story... This family we are teaching convinced me to dye my hair brown for a few days because everyone here calls me Ken the Barbie... So we ended up doing it and it actually didn’t turn out to bad... (I see why God made me blonde though...) 

Our older lady with 85 years before was a witch... and she yelled during sacrament for things inside her to leave... it was interesting to explain to our 5 investigators what happened. But the power of the sacrament is real and after bishop almost forgot to confirm her but we got it taken care of. She is such a powerful example of the atonement’s power to change people. 

This week we had transfers and my brazilero comp from a few months ago will be in our zone so I will get to call him every day. That made me super happy. This week I will have another leadership council with president and it should be intense and good at the same time. My third son finished his first full transfer and is growing soooo fast. I can’t wait for the miracles he will achieve throughout his mission. 

Not much else to say... This week is hard and God is storing up blessing to show us. This week we will really focus on finding and teaching more new people. I love you tons and miss you all! Hope you have a great week!!!

Next week will have more pics.. I changed memory cards and only have pics from today... But we visited an abandoned building that was going to be a prison...
