August 7, 2012

Another quick week went by. But it definately is weird having p day on tuesday instead of monday everything just deosnt feel right. But today we got to go to the temple and there were a ton of missionaries there it was awesome. We dont get to see everybody to often so its a real treat when we do. But it also eats up our entire pday with having to take buses and metro and everything. So basically our day was the temple and doing our hour of email. But its all worth it, no better place to rest than being in the temple, the House of the Lord.
This past week we have been continuing to work hard and things are starting to go through. We are finding some families that are super good. One family we are teaching, we found because I was thirsty and asked a guy for a cup of water while he was at his front gate. Now we've been teaching them for a couple weeks and the family is amazing. He read the chapter we left in the BOM 3 times in a couple days. And things are happening by "coincidence" as he said about the church. But I'm pretty positive he already knows its true. They've already accepted to be baptized we just havent marked a date yet. Theyre so awesome. Also yesterday we found a lady while she was waiting for a bread guy to come by. She wasnt looking very happy and she said she was disanimated. But with the way we go around now always smiling and laughing and sharing the gospel we helped her be happy again and we ened up going in leaving a message and making a baptismal date with her. She said she had always wanted to go into our church but never had the courage. But this week she said she will be there.
The Lord has also blessed us with another family that is family to members here in the ward. They were going to a different ward but now are attending our ward. The family was almot baptized and they want to be baptized but they werent married and the wife is from a different country and the papers took forever to get here to brasil and they stopped going to church and everything. But this sunday they were there and we´re going to teach them this week! The Lord is trully blessing us for the hard work we are putting it.
I cant believe it but this transfer is already over next week. It has gone by so fast. Im not sure whats going to happen and I dont really have any preference. I would like to stay here in this area with Elder Vazquez but I'm also fine with leaving and getting to know a new area with new people. Today is 5 months that I have been here in Guapira, time is flying by. So what the Lord needs and wants from me will happen and I am ready for whatever that is.

P.S. I didnt have time to get any scripture references from what i read this past week but next week will have double :)
