My Weekly Report!

what a wonderful thanksgiving you had! it looks so fun! i can’t wait to see washington and to play with the little kids! i am glad that you guys got out and got our trees! whats christmas without them! wow…boot has grown a lot!! he is going to whoop me when i get home. I am sure he is twice as strong as his sisters now!

well, this week was the best!! so many amazing things happened we have had a lot of people to teach and a lot of following up to do. we have been busy, actually running to get things done every day!

on thursday we had zone conference! but it wasn’t any normal zone conference! it was with elder claudio costa from the seventy! wow it was amazing! his words were powerful!! it reminded me of king bejamin in the book of mormon! king benjamin’s words with the spirit converted all the people. i feel like that happened to me! wow!!! he taught many things!

and yesterday we had some baptisms. they were cleiton, lucas, and rosiane!

cleiton is a friend of one of our recent converts! he is amazing. he is 12 years old. because of his age he had to show a lot of faith and go to church 4 times to get baptized and he did it. his mom even went to support him and she cried. it was really spiritual.

lucas is a young man that is 16 years old. for the last 2 weeks he has been going to church alone and this last week we have been able to teach him and prepare him for baptism. he said that he has been searching for a church to get baptized in but never found one until the true church of Jesus Christ! he is an awesome young man!

and rosiane. she is joao´s sister. she is 12 years old as well. she has a really strong testimony! she has been going to everything. i don’t think that she has missed an activity yet. she even went to the conference that elder costa did with the youth. she is awesome!

yesterday the ward, cidade oeste did an activity and everybody went out on the roads and did contacts with people. we received some really good referrals from this. we will have a busy schedule this week! pray for us!

i know that this church is true. i know that the Savior is real and that his atonement is what ties everything together! without the infinite atonement we are and have nothing. i am so grateful to know of these things! i also know that the book of mormon is true. i have used this book and it has taught me many precious truths. i love you all, and hope that you are all happy and strong!

keep on a fighting!
