First of all: I LOVE Being a missionary. Even in the hard, tiring, and sometimes sad, weeks, I have never been so happy! I have never loved doing something more! It is crazy that I am already at the last week of the transfer here in Ingleses!
I just wanted to bear my testimony that I know that this gospel is true, Joseph smith is a prophet of God and that the restored church of Jesus Christ is here on the earth today! I love my savior and am so grateful for him!
Here is what happened this week:
We went to our investigators house (Dayana, Julian, and Mariana) and they surprised us with having their wedding date and invitation ready!! 19th de July! The baptism will be the 26th. It is such a blessing and privilege I have as a missionary to see the Gospel change peoples lives. Just in the time I know them they have changed so much! My heart is so full!
We taught a lady named Eliani this week who moved to a different area Saturday, but we taught her the restoration and it was so cool because after she said that she has been praying for some time that God would send her messengers from God, and that she feels like her prayer was answered!
We had a bus strike this week so we stayed in the part of the area close to our house for a large portion of the week, and met a bunch of cool people! We met one columbiano who is awesome so we are way excited to teach him.
We had district meeting that was soo good, and helped us work harder and be better this week! Right before we found an open fruit marked that was selling everything dirt cheap, so basically every day for breakfast I am eating mango, kiwis, bananas, star fruit, etc. LOVE BRAZIL!
This week I have thought a lot about Naman and his experience with listening to the counsels of the prophet, how sometimes we look at the commandments as "dirty water" but really they are the door to blessings and healing. (What is your commandment from the lord that is like the dirty water in the Jordan river?)
That is all for this week! Love you all, be safe and follow the Lord!
Love,
Irma crofts
