sunday we had a normal day at church and some real good visits! i think i already told you but Reinaldo accepted a baptismal date for the 11th of august! we went to visit them and were just kinda talking about nothing in particular and next thing i knew he had accepted a baptismal date and the whole family listened to us and decided they wanted to go to church tomorrow! we can see the little miracles coming because usually everyone would hide when we got to their house!
monday we had some normal visits with leandro and his roommate! he came back for a couple days from itabuna and we talked about the reading he has been doing in the Book of Mormon but he has already gone back to itabuna. a little bit of a bummer because he loved his reading.
tuesday we had a dinner with romilda and talked about her reading and goals with finishing the book of mormon! she is coming close to reaching 1 year that she was baptized and says she loves reading the book of mormon just doesnt always understand a whole lot! so we had a nice little discussion and cleared up some questions she had. we also followed up on Daiane and lucas and their readings too! unfortunately daiane and lucas and leliane have the baby shower this weekend so they cant go to church.
wednesday we had a normal day with training from São Paulo and our district meeting. im also district leader by the way i dont think i ever mentioned that hahaha. gave some training and we had a whole mess with the reference online system. i think the people from the MTC called me 3 times everyday this week.
friday we had another good lesson with lucas and daiane. until now daiane hasnt been super open or willing to listen to us because she has been studying with the Jehovah's witnesses but she asked us some questions and we kinda just layed it out for her. then we taught her the plan of salvation and it was awesome. she was pretty unsure and confrontive about the premortal world and God's body but she quieted down and when we got to the end of the lesson she asked about her family that had already passed on and what she needed to do to help them? we kinda just looked at her hoping she would answer and she was like "oh.. i need to get baptized dont i?" and we just gave her some real energetic head nods and bore our testimonies! it was awesome! the spirit was wonderful and it made me so happy. I love our Father in Heavens plan for us and the hope we can have from it! all thanks to His son Jesus Christ!
have a good week
Elder Prince
