The Pure of Heart

The Pure of Heart

We taught Aleita a lot this week. Oh, I love her. She started crying because she doesnt want me or Sister Mullen to leave. She said that she is so sad that we will not be here forever.

We are teaching Valherra and she is getting baptized this next week with her son who is 8. We still have many things to teach them before next week. Also today we are going to start teaching her 19 year old son. But she is amazing. She cant wait to be baptized. I am so happy for them. I know that this church is going to bless their lives so much.  I know the Lord helps us so much.  He helps me everyday!!! Every time I open my mouth!

We found her in an interesting way.  One morning while walking we saw her running and we stopped her and tried to talk to her and she didnt want anything. But when we went to visit a less active member, who did not show, guess who was there! Valhenna, the lady that we saw running and she said that we could teach her. Thats how we found her! Oh, I love her.  The Lord truly helps us find those who are ready to hear the gospel.

Also we knocked doors this week and we came accross this guy with no shirt on and who was so drunk.  He said to come back a different day. Ha my companion and I thought for sure that this would not go anywhere, but then we had a great lesson with him and he said that he wanted to be baptized. I need to have more faith and not judge!

 

The Good and the Bad :)

Also we ate with a member this week. :) it was good and we had chicken and rice. It really good.

So my companion and I get a lot of new investigators but we have a hard time getting a lesson with them and then many of them fall through. We are working hard on that!

Also people here love dogs and cats! They are everywhere! Hahah and they are not that cute. Anyway,  this week there was this scary one that was black and looked like it had flees! GROSS!! It chased me and my companion--we ran away from it screaming! Oh it was so scary! hahh yeah.

Many people here know English because most of their tv shows and movies are all in English with  Portuguese subtitles.

I know that this church is true! I want others to have it in their lives so bad! I know that it will bless them. I love prayer! I love church!  I have to speak next week.  I think that I will speak on Christ's attributes.

Also today for pday we went out for lunch and it was so good :). Also we went on this glass elevator, the view was beautiful! Oh it was so cool!! :)
