so this week was great. We found alot of great people to teach and to help learn about the restored gospel. At the end of the mission I find myself wanting to do one more lesson, contact, or invite one more person before going home. On Wednesday we were getting out of a lesson a little late and we took of in a hurry to grab a bus to get home. We were dead tired from the busy day we had with varies lessons. As I was getting on the bus I was with the mind set that the day was already over. then the spirit literally tugged at my heart strings telling me to talk to a man. for a minute I tried convincing myself that I was tired and nothing would happen. But finally I couldn´t deny it anymore. I went over there and started to talk to him. Within minute I realized that he was an elect. 

  He doesn´t do anything on Sundays because it´s a sacred day and he also doesn´t have a certain church. He ending it with his girl friend because she wanted to do bad stuff. Before I got off the bus I got his number and address. We went there on Sunday and had a really spiritual lesson that resulted in marking a baptismal date. I´m so grateful that I was able to feel and act upon the prompting of the spirit.

My trainer got married!!!! Elder Sales!!! I can´t believe that we were comps almost 1 year and 6 months ago. And I was able to go to the wedding with President and Sister. I can´t believe that I saw him go home and get married. Thanks Dad for helping him to get to the temple. He is going to be a great husband and father.

This week the Brasilia stake presidency was released and Elder Aidukaitis came to reorangize the new stake. I was able to talk to him before and I told him that he was Daniels mission President. He is an amazing man who speaks with power. Also 2 men that I was able to baptized in Aguas Claras were sustain to receive the higher Priesthood and another said the closing prayer. It was a sense of peace that the difference we make as missionaries isn´t when they get baptized but after when they apply the things of the gospel. It was a really special day for me and the people of this stake.

Just another day in the fight! We are doing a mission conference next week so we are praying and fasting to know what the mission is needing to continue the hard work and help the strengthening of the Kingdom of God here in Brasilia! We are on the hunt for a temple. 

One step at a time we will reach the top of the of our mountainous goals.

com Amor,
