The End

Well, just like any good story, the worst part is always the end, when you are on the last page and see that there is not much left. (but send me your contacts so we can keep in touch!!!)

 But let me just say that this has been the best time of my life and I would not trade it for the world. I believe that I have come to know the Savior and the sacrifice that He willingly gave for each and every one of us. I am eternally indebted to Him, as we all are. Eu sei, com todo de meu ser, que Jesus é o Cristo, o Filho de Deus, enviado para levar a gente de volta, e que nossa liberdade eterna depende no sangue que ele livremente deu. que nossa própria salvação foi comprado com a sangue inocente de um Deus. eu sei disso, e eu amo Ele por isso. eu presto esse testemunho, último de todos, que Ele vive, no sagrado nome de Jesus Cristo, Amém.  

(Google Translate) I know, with all of my being, that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, sent so all people can return to Him, and that our eternal salvation depends on the blood He freely gave. that our own salvation was purchased with the innocent blood of a God. I know that, and I love Him for it. I bear this testimony, the last of all, that He lives, in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Viva Brasil!

Piano

Oh, well this week at church I was playing the piano (yes, I now play the piano, just not very well kkkk) and it was pretty cool, but I had chosen some harder hymns that are cool, but long story short we had to start one of the hymns over again because everyone lost place. but it all went well, lesson of the story, it is alright to not do everything perfectly, certainly God wants us to be perfect, but He knows that we will stumble and fall a lot, but as long as we do not stop, as long as we continue forward, everything will be alright. God makes our weakness into strengths if we reach unto Him.

love you guys!!!! have a great week!!!

Last transfer!

 


Transferred, I am now in Resende, which is a city in the state of the Rio. and you know what, it is not very hot here, it is actually pretty cool. Well, these weeks were spent getting to know the area and the people here, which are pretty open and friendly. And with a big military influence (there is a big military academy here, it is pretty cool). but just want to say that I know that Jesus is the Christ, and that He suffered and died for us all, and

we must ALWAYS remember Him. I promise that as we do this, we may always have His Spirit to be with us, and one day have eternal life.  but all is well, would love to hear from all of you!!!!! love you guys!!!!

Sorry Guys

Well guys, I really do look like a Brazilian, just these past couple of weeks people have been telling me that i look like people that they know. for exemple, we went to teach one family and when we arrived, they looked at me and said, " you look exactly like our cousin... before his accident" well that was really comforting to know kkkkk. but it is cool, at least I look like a Brazilian. well, all is going good here, hope that you all are doing GREAT!!!!!! let me know how you all are doing!!!!!!!

General Conference

I think that one of the most important things that was spoken at the conference is that we always need to remember that we are sons and daughters of a loving Heavenly Father with divine potential. We can overcome all of life’s challenges and problems, in Him that suffered and died for us. it is only through Him that we can become better, more and more every day. He is always there with His arms open, ready to receive us when we come unto Him. And it is the small things, the "small obedience" that will bring us closer to Him, so let us every day do the small things, everyday deeds like reading the scriptures, prayer, helping one another, a kind word to another and other opportunities that God will put in our path so that we might return to HIm. I know that Jesus Christ suffered and died for us and that he resurrected so that one day we can perfect, even as He is. God loves us and He has a plan for each one of us, trust in Him, keep His commandments and everything will be alright. deixo isso em nome de Jesus Cristo, amém.

love you guys!!!!!!!! let me know how all of you are!!!!

On the Street (March 19)

Well, this week we encountered someone na rua(in the street), just doing contacts, you know what she said to us? that she has read the Book of Mormon and she felt that it is true..................... but doesn’t want to make a commitment now........... well this is a lesson, always follow the respostas(answers) that God gives to you. He lets us know what we need to do to return to Him, how to be happy. All of us have the chance to have an eternal family, to be happy forever, we just need to accept the will of God and He will make this happen in our lives. I would like to invite all of you to, if you are not reading, to read the Book of Mormon and ask God if it is not true, and He will respond to you. I promise that as you follow the answer, you will be happier, and God will be able to pour out blessings in your lives. 

love you guys!!! let me know how it all goes!!!!!
