This
week had its ups and downs, but Conference made everything so great! I know
that this mission has been the hardest thing that I have ever done in my life
for sure. I am reminded of that every day. The victories achieved make
everything so worth it.
Everyone
here got super pumped about the temple announcement in Belém, Brazil! I know
that there were so many sacrifices made before the temple was built here in
Recife and I know that it truly was the same there in Belém. It is cool to
think that the companions and missionaries I have met from Pará will have their
own temple.
Conference
rocked my socks off. But honestly I will
be listening to it all again in English. The general authorities use lots of
words that I don’t know in Portuguese haha. That shows me that I have still so much to
learn in this language!
This
week we had a companionship exchange with the zone leaders. It went great and I
learned so much. Their area is progressing so much and I want the same for our
area. So, we are going to work harder and put in to practice what we learned.
This transfer has definitely been a challenge and I am learning a lot about
faith, hope, and patience. Elder Faria has an awesome attitude and he has
helped me learn through our hard times that we need to trust in the Lord. I am
grateful for that lesson.
I
know that President Thomas S. Monson really is a prophet called of God. I love
him so much. I know that Christ truly does run this church. It's His.
We
baked muffins, but we had to tape the switch on our oven so that the gas would
stay on. #favella.
Tenha
uma boa semana!
