Grateful to be a Missionary

Transfer Calls and Finishing Training
This week was good :). We got our transfer calls and I am going to
stay in madeira and finish the training of a sister named sister
silva. I think that she is from Capo verde! It will be fun I am really
excited :) I am staying here in Lisboa until Wednesday and then we will fly
back.

Traveling
Our flight got canceled so we all got 16 euros to spend on
dinner. We went to a fancy restaurant which was fun.  But we
didnt get to Portugal until 3 am.  I am kind of tired. But On the
flight I Sat by myself in the very back of the plane with a lady
and I taught her the first lesson. She was soo cute.

This week we had a zone meeting and we talked about inviting people to
be baptized in the first contact.  Sister Briggs and I did it
this week and it was great! It helps them to know right away our
purpose. :) also our mission standard went up to 4 baptisms for the
month,12 new investigators,  6 in church and 25 lessons! I want to reach
it so bad.

Also this week a member in our ward got married. We only stayed for
the ceremony but it was cute.

Also we found some really cool people this week, that I am really
excited to start teaching! Also we went and talked to that family that
hid from us and we are going to keep teaching them! Sonia is not really
progressing anymore but we are going to try one more time and talk
about Joseph Smith.

I am so grateful that I am a missionary and I am able to help people
everyday learn about our Savoir Jesus Christ. I am so grateful that we
have a prophet called of God to lead and guide us today. I am so
grateful for the scriptures and that we can pray to a loving Heavenly
Father. I am so grateful that we can change and repent everyday. I am
so grateful for the gospel and the knowelge that I can be with my

wonderful family forever :) We are soo blessed.
