Olá!

This week flew by and today went by so fast that I do not have a whole lot of time to write about what has happened. Our week was full of a lot of meetings. At the start of transfer it is always like that. We have to help organize everything. This time all the meetings went very well. I think it was our best time. Some of the trainings that we give are the same every time, but sometimes we switch them up and have to prepare. We had a few late nights of planning. It is ironic because our main training was about planning and we spent so much time planning. It went extremely well though. The new missionaries who got here also are awesome. I think we have a great future for the mission. It is crazy how it feels like I just got here and was receiving these trainings and now I have to give the trainings. I am really enjoying it though. It might be extremely tiring, but the Lord always helps and qualifies us in our weaknesses.

I have time to share a little story. On Sunday night we had a miracle. We were on the road trying to invite people to go to a ward activity. It started raining and little bit and then it started pouring. We almost turned around and ran to the church, but we kept going and decided to go a little early to a recent convert who we were planning on visiting, but just a little bit later. As we approached his house, we saw that his neighbor was watching us. He gestured to us and we entered into his house. We started talking to him and found out that he had already gone to the church and also has read part of The Book of Mormon. A week ago he wanted to turn around his life. He stopped drinking and wanted to go to a church. He then went out to watch the rain on Sunday and he saw us. He believes that it was an answer from God.

It was amazing that we were in the right place at the right time. President Thomas always tells us about that. He says that we need to talk to everyone and work as much as we can because so many times there are people who are praying and needing help and that we need to find these people. We can truly be the answer to another person's prayer. This experience strengthened my testimony. I am so grateful that the Lord guides us in this work. Thank you all for your love and support.

Amo vocês!
