We had a great first week here in Coroado!!! Getting to know the area, the members, and the investigators!! It’s always exciting to move to a new area!! My new zone is HUGE!! But has a ton of new-b Americanos!!! Ha-ha! The best!!! I’m helping them out!! Ahhh I remember how it was to be new!! But yeah our zone is super excited and focused in baptisms!! So it’s going to be a great transfer!!!

This week we worked super hard!! Sister Santos loves to work hard so we make a pretty good team and ended up with the best numbers in the zone (not to brag or anything) Ha-ha! But yeah I’m excited for this transfer!!

This week we got to know a little better and teach Adalia! And helped prepare to for her baptism Sunday!! Her baptism was super great we had a ton of members there supporting her which helps A LOT!!! She was so happy! I’m so happy for her decision to be baptized and I know that this decision will bless her life and the life of her 3 month old daughter forever!!! :)

This week we found a ton of families. A few we will have to help get married, but also we found A TON who are legally married!! And for Manaus that’s a miracle!!! We are so excited!!! This area is GOLD!! I’m so excited for these coming weeks to work here and bring many unto Christ!!

Scripture of the week!

Alma 5:16-19

16 Digo-vos: Podeis imaginar ouvir a voz do Senhor dizendo-vos naquele dia: Vinde a mim, benditos, pois eis que vossas obras foram obras de retidão na face da Terra?

17 Ou imaginais que podereis mentir ao Senhor naquele dia, dizendo — Senhor, nossas obras foram retas na face da Terra — e que ele vos salvará?

18 Ou, de outra maneira, podeis imaginar-vos ante o tribunal de Deus, com a alma cheia de culpa e remorso, tendo uma lembrança de todas as vossas culpas? Sim, uma perfeita lembrança de todas as vossas iniquidades, sim, uma lembrança de que haveis desafiado os mandamentos de Deus?

19 Pergunto-vos: Podereis naquele dia olhar para Deus com um coração puro e mãos limpas? Pergunto-vos: Podereis levantar os olhos, tendo a imagem de Deus gravada em vosso semblante?

Translation:

Alma 5:16-19

16 I say unto you, can you imagine to yourselves that ye hear the voice of the Lord, saying unto you, in that day: Come unto me ye blessed, for behold, your works have been the works of righteousness upon the face of the earth?

17 Or do ye imagine to yourselves that ye can lie unto the Lord in that day, and say—Lord, our works have been righteous works upon the face of the earth—and that he will save you?

18 Or otherwise, can ye imagine yourselves brought before the tribunal of God with your souls filled with guilt and remorse, having a remembrance of all your guilt, yea, a perfect remembrance of all your wickedness, yea, a remembrance that ye have set at defiance the commandments of God?

19 I say unto you, can ye look up to God at that day with a pure heart and clean hands? I say unto you, can you look up, having the image of God engraven upon your countenances?
