Okay, so I found a food that just doesn’t go down. Buxu. It was even worse because they told me what it was before I ate it... and I had heard about this piece of... well… I wouldn’t call it meat because it’s bull stomach. NOT my favorite. Keep It Together, Man! Yesterday was my LAST Fast and Testimony Meeting, and I swear the members were out to get me. At LEAST 5 testimonies mentioned the missionaries. It was the perfect storm. I had just hung up with Irmão Brito, who basically said he doesn’t have to justify his absence at church to me, but to the Lord. Everyone who said they’d go to church wasn’t there. And, well, I ended up bawling my eyes out with every testimony borne until I got up. I said that I’ve grown more in this ward than any other in my life. I said that you can give without loving, but you can’t love without giving. And I had given my heart a long time ago, the first Sunday here in this ward. I said that I loved them all with all my heart, but I’m really sad because the people who most need to hear this |
August 4, 2013 BIGGEST recent converts class I’ve ever seen. I was there for all of these peeps, and we’re even missing Stephan and Natan.

aren’t here. So, PLEASE visiting teachers, home teachers, DO YOUR VISITS! to bring this love into every home. I KNOW that Christ lives; and He lives in His church, this church. He lives in the eyes of every one of His saints, every one of His true followers; and that’s why there is no other place to better get to know our Savior and Redeemer and our Father in Heaven. I know the only way to receive true forgiveness, to be free of our burdens, and to endure to the end of every tribulation with a smile on our faces is through the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.

Didi rocks my socks! Tell her thanks for the Plan of Salvation packet. The only thing I wished was it to be in Portuguese, lol.
