Knocking doors, knocking doors, knocking doors and more doors! Lots of nos a few yeses, but Istill feel motivated to knock more because it's the only way we find the elect!
Speaking of elect, a lady named Cibelle that we met last week was home on Saturday and we visited her. She lives alone and doesn't have a religion, but has a strong faith in God! We shared the message of the restoration, and she cried, saying we were an answer to her prayers to find a path to follow. The spirit was so strong testifying of the truthfulness of the gospel, and I know we are going to help Cibelle receive even more answers!
We taught Janio and Neli, which was awesome! Janio has a hard time stopping drinking, so we are trying to help him realize the importance of nourishing our spirits to be strong enough to overcome addictions! It was cool to talk to him, because it was the first time I saw him not drunk... but they are awesome and for sure elect.
This Friday, we had a hard time, because we were teaching this super cool teenager, Jennifer, when her dad drove, up, told her to get inside and said, "we are catholic, you are done here, leave and never come back..." We felt sad after that, but God lifted our spirits when a member that has a bakery gave us whatever we wanted for freeeeeeee... #blessed
Sunday we went to an orphanage and got to play with and talk to the sweet kids there, it was such a special experience, and made me so happy to be there helping these kids the little that we could!
The most of the pictures I send my mom are food, because the food here is amazing, and super cheap, and my comp is dying this transfer so we are making the best of her last weeks in Brasil! #thebest
We had this one day knocking doors in the bairro municipials where we seriously just talked to and taught crazy people/possesed people/people that wanted to be possessed. We also talked with this one conspiracy theorist who said that women who wear pants will go to hell....because of this one scripture that is in the bible that says women cant wear men's clothing...we started talking about how in the time of this scripture, Jesus and the apostles and all of the men used skirts/dresses (tunic) and said, "so you sir, should be wearing a skirt right now!" It was the funniest thing in the world...I'm still laughing.
I love you all, I know that Christ lives, and this is his gospel, lately I have been studying a lot about the preexistence. It is way cool to learn about where we come from, to know why we are here, and where we will go! It strengthens my faith in Gods plan! Learn more too!
Love
