FAMILY

October 16, 2017

VALTER GOT BAPTIZED!!! I have been teaching him ever since I got here and there isnt anyone who knows the bible better than this guy. He is the happiest most possitive man and I am so thankful for his huge example in my life. He literally stopped drinking coffee over night because he knows that it faz mau por nossos corpos and I just look up to him a ton.
Also. The elders in our district had a baptizm the same day but the water at their chapel was super dirty so we had a double baptism which means double the spirit! We were able to help dona Jurema get dressed and prepare for her baptism and after she was baptize she just thanked us and told us about how clean she felt. 

FAMILY,

I love being a missionary.

We went back to Eliane, Amanda and Marie edwardas house this week and they are such a special family. Eliane told us about how after we had left her house that she cried for a long time and that the day that we had showed up had been ar eally hard day for her. She told us that afterwards she felt so much peace. That her problems didnt go completely away but that things were getting better and that she was happier. Wow. I know that the spirit is real and that it touches the hearts of those we teach. I was so happy for her and I know that God has HUGE plans for this amazing family and I couldnt be more greatful to play a tiny part in this huge work. 

We were walking down the street and out of no where I just feel the need to clap at a house. And that is how we met Susan who moved here only a month ago with literally only her family. She has 2 little boys who kept us company and told us a bunch of stories and I love them. She has gone through so much and I know that she is so prepared to take this next big step in her life! 

I dont know how I lucked out with this opportunity. Every day I am able to meet someone new and I love them automatically. I didnt know that I had so much love and that there are still so many people for me to meet every single day. 

Life is so so good and I could not be more happy with where I am or what I am doing. 

God lives, Jesus Christ is His son. God wants us to reach out and take firm hold of the iron rod, confront our fears, and bravely step forward and upward along the strait and narrow path. he wants this for us because He loves us and because this is the way to happiness" I know this is true. 

I love you all so so much and hope you guys have the greatest week!!

grande abraço,

Sister Albertoni
