Olá!
Wowwwww! What. A. Week. We are so exhausted today just because of how packed our semana was. It was long and very busy but also probably one of the best weeks I've had yet on the mission.
Some super cool stuff happened this week:
1)Sandro was baptized! Was way more sweeter and incredible than I ever imagined.
2)we took a quick trip on over to Lisboa for SEF residency. It was fun to take a random road trip but lots of time on the autocarro. I also got to see my fellow Spokanian missionaries--Sister Scott and Sister Alton!
3)we got to see the Temple again!
4)we had our final lesson with o Sandro and the baptismal interview
5)Sandro was confirmed a member in Church yesterday, and received the Holy Ghost! Woohoo!
6)found out that neither of us will leave Viseu! We get to stay for Natal here!
7)they handed out new Come, Follow Me (for the Book of Mormon this year)
Wow this week was crazy but it flew by! Transfers are this week, but the Sister and I are sticking together another transfer and we're so excited!
We sang a song during Sandro's baptism called O Seu Nome Tem Poder (I think it's His Name in English... but I could be totally wrong). I love this song bc it's all about the power behind the Lords name. We get to wear the Lord's name every day on our badge but we can also wear the Lords name every day through the way we live our life. When we live our life in a Christ like way we will appear more like Him, as in we will carry His spirit with us. This week, Sandro chose to make a covenant with God through baptism and he literally took the name of Christ upon him. I've seen the grace of Christ's atonement work in His life and bc he is following Christ, I can literally see the spirit that he carries more abundantly. What a blessing it's been to watch his journey. And I cant wait to watch him continue now that the doors have opened for him!
I hope everyone is doing well and ate LOTS of Thanksgiving food for me!
I sure am thankful to have so many supporting friends and family. Until next time♡
Amoooooo vocês!
