Here is what happened this week:
Knocking sooo many doors. We made 123 contacts this week! It's has been the best, I love knocking doors and meeting knew people! We did dynamic contacts, where we gave each other a word to use in the contact (butterfly, brick, laundry, sandwich, etc) it made it even more fun!! Thanks LD for the idea.
We were going to buy ice cream in the town Areias but it was way expensive, so we started to walk away. When we started to walk away the ice cream man said, "wait, I will give you both an ice cream if you give me a book of Mormon!" He has a bunch of friends on missions, and we are so excited to start teaching him about the gospel.
This week we had this lady that said that there exists only 2 true churches, one the Catholic church, and the other assemblt of God.... ummmmm NO.
We found Açai for only 5 R!!! and shishkibobs for 2.50! miracles happen!
We have been teaching a lot of Haitians from one of our areas, they are so cool, and the majority are very open to the gospel. We have this one investigator who is super cool, and she braids hair in her house for a living, and lets us teach both her, and the person she is braiding!! It is the coolest and we always find new people to teach! Her husband sat in on the last lesson, and was so excited to visit the church. The last lady we talked to there wanted to bible bash with us, but we shared our message and the spirit was strong testifying of the truth, and she did not even want to try and ask God...but everyone has their free agency!
We taught a lady that thought that we won't remember one another after this life, and she felt sad because she thinks that she won't ever see her son again who committed suicide. We taught her about eternal families, and testified that God has a greater plan for us than people recognize. It was very special.
We have seen this week that God has been guiding our paths, leading us to people prepared, and so many miracles happen every day when we choose to be obedient and look for them!
I know that God lives, and that he sent his son to die for us. I know the book of Mormon is the word of God AND that we have a prophet who lives today. It is so important to share this with everyone, so get outside your comfort zone and share the gospel with someone today. Strengthen your own testimony, and ask God! He will answer your prayers.
I love you all so much!
Love,
