Espero que estejam bem. Eu pensei muito em vocês--as pessoas em minha vida--esta semana. Eu pensei muito no sorte que eu tenho a ter família e amigos tão marvilhosos e amarosos. Uau, não percebi as bênçãos que vocês são em minha vida até eu tinha uma falta. E sou tão abençoada. Só queria dizer obrigada pelo apoio e amor. Eu amo vocês!

Hey!! Good morning everyone:)
I hope you're all doing well. I thoght a lot about you all--my family and friends--this week. I thought about how lucky I am to have marvelous and loving family and friends. Wow, I didn't really recognize the blessing that you all are in my life until I left. I am very very blessed. I just wanted to say thank you for the support and love. Love you all!

This week started with a beautiful family night with some Brazilian members. We watched the Christ Child video and I think I could continue to watch that video over and over again and still not get sick of it. The Spirit of the reality depicted in that video is remarkable!

We were invited to a birthday party in the church building for a member less active that we didn't know. But we got to know her and she is one of the sweetest people I've ever met, and after hearing her story from her mother, I marvel at the sweet spirit of Marta.
She grew up here in Viseu and was converted with her family many years ago. She turned 19 and served a mission in Brazil. She loved her mission. She got home, got engaged to be married and suddenly one day she got really sick. And one week later she was in a state where she couldn't speak, walk, eat by herself, or basically do anything. But her brain functions perfect.
When I spoke to her for just a couple minutes, I mentioned that I'm a missionary and I saw a smile in her eyes. Other people told me about how much she loves the Gospel and about how she always had such a good attitude and always has the light of Christ with her. Even in the state she's in right now, she glows with the light of Christ. Its incredible!
I learned something very important from Marta. That having the light of Christ is about our soul. She glows of righteous and Christlike desires. And even though she cant speak or move, it is clear her soul is pure and incredible! What a beautiful young woman:)

Christmas is just around the corner and were super excited over here!
Go watch the Christ Child video the Church came out with. It's absolutely beautiful!
I hope you all have a great week!
Love you♡
