Milagres!
Hi everyone! Here's my update for the week!!
We had zone meeting/training and breakfast which is always good to be with the other missionaries and learn!
This week we suffered a little bit of food poisoning from pur own food that was olive oil that expired last year, so that was fun.
One day we got water in a coconut and the mom of the guy selling it was basically like you guys should come back another day to teach my son... so maybe a miracle will come from our little coconut water stop!
We started teaching Reubens this week and he came to church yesterday, so please pray that he will progress!
Saturday was a holiday here so basically we did a lottt of walking and not really much talking to people haha.
Rayssa was baptized yesterday!! She is so awesome!! Her mom came and cried just told us thank you for helping her to get baptized, and her mom was a little against it being so fast at first, so that was a miracle and super cool to see!
Also, I've been a missionary for 3 months which is so crazy because it feels like it's still August! But the time really does pass pretty quickly so I am trying to cherish every second now, even if sometime I just really miss America haha but I also love Brasil!!
Spiritual thought: A verse that I have come across a lot recently in the Book of Mormon is the last verse of the very first chapter which says, "But behold, I, Nephi, will show unto you that the tender mercies of the Lord are over all those whom he hath chosen, because of their faith, to make them mighty even unto the power of deliverance." This describes what we will read about in the rest of the Book of Mormon, but it also describes our lives! We are chosen when we choose to have faith in the Lord and we truly can see His tender mercies every day of our lives when we have this faith and are looking! I invite you all to look for the tender mercies in your life! I know they are there! I love you all! Never hesitate to reach out!!
Com muito amor,
Sister Howard
