Uma Tarde em Itália! Como vocês estão!

HEY! Hows it going everyone! This is your favorite and over exaggerating missionary in Brasil! Things have been going fantastic this week! We have had so much success this week!

So to start off the week I had devisions with the Zone Leaders on Tuesday. I don´t know what it is about people here, but they go crazy when they see tall people? Has anyone else had this problem yet? But at the end of the day we had pizza paulista, which was amazing!

The next day we had a BAPTISM! It went amazing. The person we baptized has such a strong spirit and she was very happy after she came out of the water. That was also my first time leading a baptism as well. Elde Kozlowski did the ordinance. Then we got to meet with another investigator again who I had given my Book of Mormon to to read. We got him a new one and I got mine back. We also had a great conversation with him as well.

So why I brought up Italy is because we apparently really like to do things that have to do with Italy here. My country worships your country Sister Miller. It was great! We had Italian food, we had people from Italy who spoke in Italian, which interestingly enough I can actually understand. But the best thing of all is that we got our investigators to go to the activity.

Yesterday was awesome as well. We got all of our investigators that could go to Church to go to Church. We´ve been working with a family now for a long time but finally we are going to Baptize them the 28th in the OCEAN! YEAH MAN! If everyone in the Zone can get Baptisms scheduled for the 28th the President will let us baptize in the Sea. As well as I had to give a talk yesterday as well. The best part about that was that I got people to cry because of the Strong Spirit I was giving off as I talked.

Well I didn´t make time to prepare a thought for the end of this letter so I think I´ll end it off with a couple of words of wisdom. I think these words can be of great use to you all who are going through trials. It´s in the Book of Matthew but I can´t remember where but it says. ´Be not afraid, only believe´ Don´t  be afraid in the Mission or at home or where ever you are. Only believe in yourselves and in your God, through faith in Jesus Christ that the Holy Ghost can help you through your trials. That´s all for this letter. I love you all and pray for you all. You are all my family and I don´t know what my life would have been like without you all. If you guys are struggling I pray that you can have my Spirit to be with you always. I think about you all when I do work and when I teach and when I study. I´m grateful for you all. A Gente vai la! Tchau minha Família!
