Ola!
Wow it is always a pleasure to hear from you guys. Sounds like you guys had a great week, filled with many things. I´m glad you guys enjoyed conference because I LOVED IT!! I want to rewatch and read the talks because we watched all of it in Portuguese. haha it was different. The lord helped me though and I was able to understand quite a bit of it when i really concentrated. But the coolest thing was was that I could feel the spirit so much and received so much revelation. We had a few investigators come watch it with us! They said they liked it as well! Our amazing investigator Dani was so cute. She got all dressed up and she told us she had to look good for the prophet! Me and sis nagliati were so excited to actually see the prophets and apostles because that is our message!! we have a living prophet and the true and only church of Jesus Christ here on the earth today. I too LOVED the talk about Joy. Every experience we have in life is to bring us happiness. an interesting thought. Also i think in the womens conference there was a talk that mentioned the scripture about knock and i will open. We have that promise from the Lord. So that is where faith comes in. We must keep knocking and keep trying because we know that he WILL answer. Man, conference was really just the best!
So this week we taught a powerful lesson to Dani about baptism. We watched the baptism of Christ vídeo with her and when it ended, we were all in tears and she says day 31 of december. That´s when she will be baptized however, that is still 3 months away...she is waiting because her boyfriend is in cabo verde and doesn´t get back until then (but they are not even that serious and me and sis nagliati don´t think they will stay together so ..) we really want her to move it closer because we know satan is going to try and work with her until then. Well, after conference she said wow all of them just kept talking about baptism. So we talked with her how god is talking with her. She still wants to wait but i think the idea is definitley in her head that it should be sooner!! we are praying to know how to help her!
Rosa also attended conference with us! she is still really crazy but this month when she receives her Money we are going to work with her to not spend it on drugs! oh man we felt like she needed a blessing because she had a lot of bad feelings right before conference so the elders came to give her a blessing. it was cool but Rosa kind of has this thing for younger men so she was in heaven having the attention of 2 elders! Me and sis nagliati couldnºt help but laugh.
Well life is just great over here in Portugal! Seriously the funniest things happen every day, and it just doesnºt work to explain it over email! but i am just laughing all the time and just basking in the spirit all the time as well. It´s the best when you get to bear your testimony of tithing to a gypsy with no teeth smoking a cigarrete and his dog climbing over you! And the spirit can touch them! What a privelege i have. I feel like i am really coming to know my Savior. I am SO grateful to have the chance to repent every day. I am so glad that I know the way to salvation and eternal happiness (which means joy in this life!)
love you all!
