I have officially reached 1 YEAR!

I am not believing what is going on right now. I was thinking that I would only make it for at least 6 months, no I´m kidding, but it feels weird that I have been in Brasil for 1 year. I can´t even remember half the stuff I did here. I have to go look back in my recordings and in my journals to remember what happened. This is a weird feeling....

I´m just doing this because I figured out that I had a blog last week.

...

...

...

So just for kicks and giggles.

... ... ... ...

I bet you guys would like me to continue.

... ... ... ... Heh.

...

...

...

This must be really annoying. Right?

Ok I´ll stop... ... ... ... Heh ok. This week was an awesome week for finding new people to teach. We didn´t have much success though getting them to come to church, because one of them unexpectedly went on vacation for the weekend, and I don´t think it was her decision, and the others were working, is what we think. They weren´t home when we got there and we waited for 2 hours for them but they still didn´t come. But yeah.

Anyway, something super special happened this week. So this person who unexpectedly travelled. She is someone very special. Her name is Morgana, She has been in the hospital for the past 15 days and she was trying to find God in her life. Well one night she said she had a feeling to go outside her house and wait. She didn´t know what she was waiting for she said, but after a few minutes. My companion, I, and our Ward Mission Leader turned the corner to talk with her. She was so excited to see us. She told us all that happened, and that she was so grateful that we talked with her. She soon after accepted a Book of Mormon, and we will continue teaching her this week.

So my message for this week is not a talk, but a quote that I received just before I went on my mission. It is something that has been helping me out a lot in my mission, and I felt the impression to share it with all of you. So here it is;

´´Impossible is not a word. Impossible is just something that looks really really hard. But it is only hard if we let it, because it depends on how much effort we put into accomplishing our goal.`` 

-John Miller

 He told me after that, that I shouldn´t be afraid of any goal I have set in my mind, because when I trust in the Lord, my effort becomes limitless depending how much I depend on Him. Because He did the impossible, and through Him I can do the same. So that´s my message that I leave today. I hope that it can help you all out in whatever you guys are facing. That´s all for this email. I will have pictures finally for all of you to see. I´ll get those all up in a minute. Mas eu amo todos de vocês e eu espero vocês tem uma boa semana! Tchau tchau!
