Dear Family!
What a great week!! First of all conference was absolutely wonderful. I am SO grateful we have the restored church and can receive revelation for our days. I LOVED President Monson´s talk about the Book of Mormon. I don´t like reading but i can´t seem to stop reading the Book of Mormon. I am learning so much through the faith of prophets past. Also I loved the talk about not losing the language of the gospel. Also Neil L. Anderson´s talk about overcoming the world. And the woman in Linda K Burton´s talk from Woman's Conference who made a can can list. How inspiring- really all of them were so good!!
For a few weeks now we have been trying to find Belmira in her house and she was never there. This week we somehow found her in a cafe! So then we went to her house to teach her. She explained that she doesn´t like Braga and she wants to move to Porto because the things are cheaper there. We asked her what things and then she told us the cocaine!!! Whaaaat !? Well, she is ready for a change in her life so we are going to help her! It was super sweet yesterday. We called her to invite her to conference and I asked her how she was doing and she replied, "Thank you thank you thank you!" I was a little confused but then she said, "Thanks for calling and not forgetting about me."
On Saturday we planned to fast with Anabela...in the end her body was not happy with her so she ate and she was so sad that she could not fast. She started crying because she thought she could not be baptized. We reassured her and helped her plan to do a fast from the internet instead of food. She was relieved and is excited for baptism!!
This week I read in Alma 24 about the peeps laying down their weapons of war. What faith they had! They were willing to do anything to not fall into sin!!
Love you guys and I'm glad things are going well!
