De fato, você pode jogar frisbee em Brazil se você trouxe uma disca! Agora estamos jogando num campo perto de nossa casa e é muito legal. [In fact, you can play frisbee in Brazil if you brought a disc! Now we're playing on a field near our house and it's really cool.]

Im guessing my mom will translate the part before this but that's right! Im playing frisbee in Brasil and it is awesome how you can ask a few people to play and they will play! [Pday only]

But, while I am playing, heres some of the highlights from the week:
Monday - TRANSFERÊNCIA!! ....no one in my zone or district changed😅

Cat in church |
Wednesday - Mission Devotional: President Góis spoke to us about his conversion story. He talked about the importance of the second question: "Do you know of anyone that needs to hear our message or is going through a hard time". 2 Elders did this questions for someone they were teaching and they found the family of Góis and they didnt judge the situation they we in without food or appliances. I thought it was remarkable bc we never know who will accept the Gospel. Other random highlights, I heard dinossaurs dying during a lesson (i think they were pigs squalling) and I found a cat in our church building!
Fish-filet [Mom note: The 2 missionaries names together for fun] |
Thursday - Fish-filet!!! I did a division with Elder Filleti in Rio Verde! It was cool to see how quick he has learned and adjust to working in Brasil after starting the mission in Utah.

Fish-filet PT 2 [Mom note: Looks like it got warmer throughout the day] |
Friday - Temple... x2! We went to the temple with other missionarys in the morning and performed batisms. Then after confirming our ward and recent converts, we went back to the temple at night! It was a remarkable experience to bring our recent converts and I cant forget what Ewerson told me. He began to cry as he felt confirmed in his heart that he helped 3 people on the other side of the veil follow Christ and now he wants to help his family to also do this!🥹

Saturday - We went around confirming people for church and whenever we leave peoples houses, I always ask "can we do anything to help you guys? Maybe wash a dish?". This was the first time someone answered yes 😆 we ended up washing all of their dishes and... it was a lot

Sunday - Sadly we weren't able to bring our friends to church today BUT, the Lord provided and we had some people arrive! Some of them were friends of Bishops son! The funny part was when Sunday school started and the young singlr adults didnt have a teacher só.... someone I taught😅 We studyed Alma 36-38 and I talked about the importance of trusting in the Lord and (after trusting in the lord) i was able to give a good sunday school lesson. Later that night we started talking to people that were going to church and they invited us to church. We ended up going! Lets just say, it was cool and different!

As we learn in Alma 36-38, trust in the Lord and you WILL be delivered from your trials (Alma 37:37, 38:5)

Amo vocês! Até o próximo!
