WHAT! YEAH! OK! ...me and my comp have been imitating lil jon all week.
Everybody at home finding jeito to smile?
This week was packed and i fear this email my turn into a travel log but i can´t think of any other way to write:
(dang it i forgot my planer) But the week started with a fun integration night followed shortly there after with zone conference
which went absolutely splendidly. The President really put fire in
everyone and me and my comp had a blast teach an exemplar 3 lesson for
everyone. Throughout this entire thing we had the sudden wedding plans
for Rose e Dailson. We found out as i told you that all forums were
closed and in last minute thinking i had the impulse to go to Maceió.
Well after a day of hunting the family down we fond out the baby was
sick and interned at the hospital. Freak OUT!! So we skipped the
quintafeira option prayingf that all would work out Saturday (in between
conference took place) 2 o'clock Saturday morning i brush the rocks out
of my eyes wake up my comp....various times and head out the door to
wake up Rose e Daislon também. Sidenote: Da Silva had called me the
night before and told me that the weding document not fall for a week
and they´d halfta come back up.
DIDN`T MATTER, we had one chance and one chance only. waking
them up they told us that they´d forgot a document of potential
importance at a bosses house. Didn´t matter, everyone in the car. From
there to maceió it was then 4 hours of almost undriveable fog that
increased my testimony strongly of the lord´s protection. Cheging there
we met the Staff picked up a proof of residency from them and skipped
in line joining some other missionaries only to find out that the baby
we´d brought would give us special privileges to jump to the front of every line that day (o que benção). Everything went great dispite a few
details i´ll halfta to add another day.
we were then told to come back at 4 that night for the ceremony. There was cake, a pastor spoke for a long time and finally
the miracle happened where they received the document that day making
the scary 4 h our car ride home totally worth it. I Know This Saturday
will be supper special for many ppl and many to come.
Joelmas sister should be baptized this weekend and Everton an investigator ours who read the LDM in 2 weeks brought his family to church
this past week.
Then Monday Duerden came in to do divisions, after one day with
him i sent him to help some other missionaries as i already had marked
another division with one of my LDs. As a team by the end of the day
(as a zone i should say) we had filled out 9 baptismal forms and marked 5
or so other baptisms on top of that (FOGO MEU!!!)
Just read a part of the family email leaded over told my come
that ali´s going to the Olympics and Trav is play for pepperdine....then
read the rest of the email. Seeing as how itd be to embarrassing to
correct i think i´ll just play the innocent card.
Anyways as i read more and more the LDM i realize that diligence
could not be more important or nessicary in our lives. This week i
also got caught up in the realization of preordination. Many are called
but few are chosen. The Lord has given each of us special talents in
relation to the building of his kingdom. We cannot bear to let these
things slide. I know through many ways we can help other come to the
knowledge of the gospel and from there....vx who knows what they'll then
do with the gifts they´ve been given or how the gospel will then spread
through their family. I wish i could share through words the joy i
felt seeing the eyes of the newlyweds this past week. The Gospel in lights souls minds and realizes dreams of eternal families.
