One of Irmã Reis´s favorite hymns :)
Well, this past week we had rain for the first time in a really really long time. It seems that the rest of Europe is getting water, except us, but no problem for missionary work here :) I enjoy the sun!
We had a wonderful zone conference with President Torgan and the zone of Lisboa. Desire, Obedience, Repentance, and Diligence were great focuses, and also the importance of teaching our investigators that the gift of the holy ghost really is the most important gift that they can receive - help in practical life now. It is so true the gospel is so simple and we have a responsibility as missionaries to help our investigators see that the gospel is simple and the best way to happiness. The simple truths are the best!
We have been working a lot with a lady, Sara, who has had contact with the misisonaries for over 2 years, and knows all the commandments, and knew that it was God´s will for her to be baptized this last sunday, but she wasn´t ready to make the promise wiht God yet. We will continue to help her feel the spirit so that she can not only feel but act.
Antonio who was baptized a few weeks ago received the Holy Ghost, even though he was really sick. I know that the power of the priesthood is real. The Holy Ghost works through those who are willing to listen.
Irma Reis has been really sick so Irma Stillman and i went on an adventure to know the area better, and we found a man who had contact with the mormons years ago. now he has 3 kids and invited us to come back this week to teach about families. we are excited!!
Follow the spirit and everything works out!!
Have a great week!
Com amor, Irmã Michael
