Dear Family! I love you all so much! It has been a wonderful week. I finally received the 2 packages this week! They were great! I cried. It was the nicest thing I have ever received in my life. Thank you so much!
So I don´t have a lot of time today, but I will say that today I was able to spend the day at the temple with Elder Silva. It was super great. It reminded me of old times with Jake when we would just show up and say "Whatever you need us to do,we will do." So we were able to spend the day at the temple. Those people are so great!
This past week, President Cordon has asked us to use the Book of Mormon a lot more when we teach. Start off the first lesson with the Book of Mormon. When we talk to people on the street, introduce the Book of Mormon. So we have been trying to do that! Last week we found a guy and we taught he and his family a lot of the first lesson (The first half) and the second half we saved for another appointment. We knew that he wanted to do a bible bash. I was a little excited. The lesson fell through and we ended up not being able to teach them. We found this other family who is just great. We only taught them the first lesson but the Spirit was super strong.
It´s been a wonderful week with a lot of hard work. I love you all so much! I have been thinking about the Book of Mormon and how special it is. It is a wonderful tool that we know is scripture. We also use it, with the Bible to testify of Christ. I know that Christ lives.
This week has been... wet. It rains every day. It is strange. You leave the house and it will be clear and then by the afternoon it will be hot and rainy and then by the end it is nice and cold at the nice.Welcome to Curitiba. It´s strange. hahaha.
I have been thinking about families and eternity this week as well. I am grateful we can be an eternal family and I have been thinking that I am grateful that one day I can be with my future family forever.
I love you all so much and I´m so thankful for you. I love you and like Elder Holland, I feel your prayers and your love and I want you to know that I pray for you. I love you so much!
