Hello!! This week was great. We finally found people that have a desire to change their lives, so that´s always fun. also we went to finish renewing my visa and so now I have an official card that says I’m basically Brazilian I think. We were able to teach lot this week and it was fun. 

I’ve been studying a lot about faith this week, and applying what I’ve learned. It´s really cool. We as a companionship have been making covenants (compromises/negotiations) with the Lord. Like, we will do this and this and this, and we would like Him to do this and this. And hey, it works. He will always do His part when we do ours. It´s kinda legit. Sometimes, He fulfills His part in a way that is different than we want, but He knows what´s best, and it all works out. 

Guys, I love being a missionary. It´s great. I am so grateful to be able to be here at this time. I know that Jesus is he Christ and savior of the world and that we have a heavenly Father who loves us more than we can even comprehend. I’ve been able to deepen my relationship with Him and have learned to converse with Him as a literal Father. I love Him, and know that he loves me and each one of you. We are never alone and there is always hope. 

Love you guys!!! Boa semana!!!
