This week was amazing!!! Sister Love and I went big so she could go home :P Her last Saturday on the mission we had the baptism of Moasir!!! WHOOHOO. He is one of the elect and was an answer to many prayers and much fasting. 3 weeks ago he came to church before we even had a chance to teach him a lesson. We found out he had been reading the book of mormon we left with his mom a month ago every day! WOAH. His baptsim was really special too. Before he was baptised he was really nervous, and i mean really really nervous. We told him that it is completely normal to be nervous, and even good because of he wasn´t nervous that would mean his baptism isnt very important to him. But he knows how important his baptism is so thats why he was nervous. After the ordinance I asked him how he felt and he said `light` and told me that all the nervousness he was feeling before got washed away in the water and he was so happy!! we told him ´just wait for tomorrow when you get the holy ghost, its gunna be amazing!` And let me tell you , it was amazing. After he was confirmed he sat next to me, i said congrats, and he shook my hand with the hugest smile on his face that I have ever seen. He is going to be a huge blessing to the Branch!!
Also TRANSFERS! Ill be staying here in trindade with Sister Resquin!! She is from Paraguay and she got to the mission the same day I did so we are both still working on our portuguese so its gunna be a party!! This morning I had to say goodbye to Sister Love and it was the saddest thing ever. But Im excited to show sister Resquin all of our investigators and our area!!
I love the gospel and I love all of you. Have a great week!!!
