This week we worked our butts off. And we used literally every resource we have access to. And it paid off. we have been working with this girl who was baptized alone when she was 8 and her parents weren´t because they weren´t legally married yet, but then they moved states and they moved back and now she´s 18 and her family always went to church in Epoca. But we´ve been working with them and we had a spiritual lesson on Saturday and the whole family, (her, her mom, step dad, and sister) went to church and it was the most beautiful thing. Wow. Her mom and step dad are now legally married and are progressing and will soon be baptized. I will not go home until they are baptized. They love the church, especially the mom. The step dad is cool too, but he drinks a lot, but we´ll help him understand that it´s worth it to leave behind something we enjoy for something bigger. And that´s a principle I understand well as a missionary. It´s gonna be great. I love helping people see their potential and the eternal perspective. For example, fasting. We sacrifice food and drink for 24 hours with the intention of becoming nearer to God or to invoke a blessing for a specific cause. And it works. I know that sacrifice truly brings miracles into our lives. I am grateful to be here, to be able to give everything that I have and want to the Lord, and know that He will give me something better. I know that we are children of God, and we need to remember that. He loves us, and we are never alone. 

Amo vocês!!!! Boa semana!!!
