So in 3 days
it will have been a year that I have been in my favorite country
meeting my favorite people. I am in love with Brasil and I dont know how
I lucked out to be where I am right now.
We
saw a BUNCH of milagres (miracles)this past week and I know that the
spirit really does lead and guide us when we are willing to act on the
promptings that we receive!
So yesterday we
were determined to find 6 new investigatores to accomplish our weekly
goal of 15 new people in our week. So we literally just followedthe
sppirit and opened our hearts and talkedto everyone and their dog and we
found 8 PEOPLE!!! We were walking down the street when Victoria walks
out of herhouse in search for something/someone (aka the gospel and US!)
Lol. But we taughther and her brothers and they accepted a return
visit! Then we were going to a members house, who ended up not being
home. So we talked to the neighbor who happened to be outside named
Kelvyn and he always was super interested and told us that we could come
back!
But thats not all. So we took a little
break to play a good game of checkers. Because they have a checkers
board on the tables at the park. Lol, Ilove Brasil. When all of a sudden
Mateus and his friend came up to us and sat down and just starting
talking/laughing. Na verdade, they just busted up when I told them my
name and thatI am american. We invited them to church and who knows some
day!? They are 11, but we have high expectations!
I
love being able to meet genuinly happy being willing to change and
repent and accept the gospel. M. JosephBrough said, "Repentance is not
apunishment, it is a privilege" and I know that that is true. I know
that I am able to change and become better than who I was yesterday. I
know that repentance is essencial to eternal happiness. I am so grateful
for the opportunity to meet amazing people and see my weaknesses and
how lucky I am to have the gospel in my life.
Fique firme e feliz and read your scriptures and say your prayers.
grande abraço,
Sister Albertoni
