I Love Being A Missionary!

This week was hard, we worked a lot, walked a lot, taught a lot, sweat a lot, but it was all sooooo worth it!! Because everything is almost ready for the wedding this Saturday AND Andriane was baptized!!! :))) Wow! Like super great!!

Adriane is super special I love her so so much!! We helped re-activate her aunt and family and met her in the process!! She’s so cute!! She keeps talking about when she will go on her mission and talks about how she will be a Sister and help people too!! (Dying!!) I love her so much and am so happy for her decision to be baptized!!!

Also the number in our sacrament meeting is growing really fast!! I love looking out and seeing all those familias in our ward all together! It’s so important that we never give up on the people who have left the church or are inactive! Our Heavenly Father loves all his children and wants then all to return to him! It’s so important that we do our part to help everyone make it back!! It’s so important that we do visiting teaching and home teaching! We need to help these people know how much their Heavenly Father loves them and also how much the ward loves them and that the ward is here to help!! I’ve seen so many lives change for the better just because of one little visit or someone passing by on someone’s birthday! When we serve others they will feel the love of their Heavenly Father and be happy!!

When we were baptized we all made promises with God to guardar os mandamentos and tomar sobre se o nome de Jesus cristo!! We made that promise to God and promised that we would keep that promise for the rest of our life!! There are so many blessings promised to us as we keep these promises that we make with our Heavenly Father! When we make up excuses for why it’s okay to break a commandment just imagine telling that excuse to your Heavenly Father on the judgement day! Boa sorte! Just do what is right and you’ll be so happy and receive so many blessings!! It’s simple but difficult! But we will conseguir! We must be obedient!!!

I can’t believe how fast this time is passing!!! I love this gospel I love love love being a missionary!! I love my Heavenly Father I never want my mission to end!!

Scripture of the week!

Alma 5:45-46

E isto não é tudo. Não supondes que eu próprio saibadestas coisas? Eis que vos testifico que sei que estas coisas de que falei são verdadeiras. E como supondes que eu tenho certeza de sua veracidade?

46 Eis que eu vos digo que elas me foram mostradas pelo Santo Espírito de Deus. Eis que jejuei e orei durante muitos dias, a fim de saber estas coisas por mim mesmo. E agora sei por mim mesmo que são verdadeiras, porque o Senhor Deus mas revelou por seu Santo Espírito; e este é o espírito de revelação que está em mim.

Translation:

Alma 5:45-46

And this is not all. Do ye not suppose that I know of these things myself? Behold, I testify unto you that I do know that these things whereof I have spoken are true. And how do ye suppose that I know of their surety?

46 Behold, I say unto you they are made known unto me by the Holy Spirit of God. Behold, I have fasted and prayed many days that I might know these things of myself. And now I do know of myself that they are true; for the Lord God hath made them manifest unto me by his Holy Spirit; and this is the spirit of revelation which is in me.
