Olá!

This week was great! We have been working really hard here and it has been a lot of fun. The greatest thing that happened with week was with Emerson's family. It is a huge family and we were finally able to teach all of them together. It was such an amazing lesson. We sang some hymns in English and Portuguese and we talked about Moroni 10:3-5. We challenged them all to pray and also to be baptized! They all accepted! Some are more excited than others, but we hope to prepare all of them and hopefully they can all be baptized together!

We also taught some other people this week who went to church with was great. It is always hard at the end of the week waiting to see who shows up and who doesn't. It is amazing when you see someone walk in who you would never have expected.

I was feeling sick this week. I just had a cold or something. It seemed to be going around. As sick as I was feeling I am so happy for the power that I felt also. I was able to still work every day and meet with all the people we needed to. Though I was tired and wanted to just go to bed some days I had help from my companion and definitely from angels who held me up and pushed me forward. There are always people out there for us to find. Who are looking for the truth and to have more happiness and joy in their lives. That is what this gospel is about. The true happiness, peace, and joy that comes from the knowledge that we have a Savior who suffered and died and that he knows us perfectly and is always here to help and guide us. It is amazing knowledge to have. I love you all!

Tchau!
