This past week was interestingly different if I could put it to words... Ha, gotta love the mission!!
But really, it was great! Our baptism didn´t happen though. Bianca had something come up so she will be baptized this saturday at 4! And she asked me to confir the Holy Ghost upon her!.... Wow.......
We have an appointment tonight right after we go bowling as a zone that Elder Souza and I are just chompping at the bit for! Seriously, these two are ready to be baptized. One is named Silvana (she was the one who we marked a baptism with during church for that same saturday, but didn´t happen) and the other one is Rosana. We have been teaching Rosana since my third week here. They both work together. Anyway, Silvana actually was going to stop coming to church. She told us that her last Sunday there was last week and that God has a different plan for her. We tried talking to her then, but nothing worked. She didn´t even give us a solid response. So we did the only thing you can do. We prayed.
Thursday night we went over to Rosana´s, but she wasn´t there. Her sister said that we could come back saturday after 5 so that´s what we did. When we got there, she said that she had a lot to do, but was for sure coming to church in the morning. She then asked if we wanted to know what was going on with Silvana. She said that Silvana was receiving revelations, but that they stopped and that she would be at church in the morning too!
So at church we talked with her and she told us that she wasn´t doing very well and that she would tell us the story after church. She did, and it was very hard to take in. She has been having a tough time to say the least. But Rosana stepped right in and shared her testimony about faith. Back tracking a little, with me and Elder Santos, it was one of the most spiritual settings I had ever been in the day we talked to her about true faith. Anyway, so Rosana did that!!!! It seems that these elects that Heavenly Father is putting in our path are more prepared to share the gospel then we are!
So we are very excited for the lesson with them tonight. I pray that the Spirit will be there to open our mouths and their hearts.
I love you sooooooooOOOOOO VEERRRYYYY MUCH!!!! I hope you all have a wonderful week and never forget that the Lord is ever near you!
Com amor, seu amoroso filho e irmão
