Hello gente,
Another
week passed by! The area is starting to progress. We are seeing that our group
of investigators is growing! But we are really trying to get things moving so
that we can have a baptism here soon.
The
area is huge, so we have been walking a lot. But it is good because I need to
lose weight. Also Elder Gimenez and I went running today and so that helps too
right?
We
had our first district meeting in the district this week. It went super well. I
think it was one of the best district meetings I have been to. Really felt the
spirit. This week we were doing contacting, and during one contact the guy
asked if I was from the Rio Grande do Sul. I almost hugged him - it made my
week. And then I taught the gospel
principles class last Sunday and one of the recent converts said "so what
are you from São Paulo?" hahah I felt so happy. But despite that, Elder
Gimenez is still helping me with my accent more.
Basically
every night we have been watching various church movies, because we have a dvd
player now for Elder Gimenez' training. Also I have been drinking Guaraná do
Amazonas with bananas every morning for breakfast. (see pic) It is literally
the best thing ever - besides açai.
On
Sunday Dilma, one of our investigators, came to church. She is progressing a
lot. We have also been teaching a former
investigator named Bira. He came to church yesterday! It was a miracle. We are teaching
his wife as well.
Have
another great week!
Elder
Waters
