E aí! Como vocês estão? I hope that everyone is doing well and that you had a great week! In this email I just want to share the story of Alef! He was Baptized this Saturday and he is truly amazing! He is 18 years old and has an amazing testimony of the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ! About a month ago, Alef didn't believe in God. But when his dad kicked him out of his house and he moved in with some members, his heart changed. Three weeks ago he went to church for the first time! When talked with him and he told us he wanted to be baptized! So we set up a date for him to work towards and started to teach him! In our first lesson, we taught The Restoration, the spirit was very strong and he accepted the invitation to read The Book of Mormon and pray about it. Later that night he prayed and he told us that he felt something indescribable and something he'd never felt before. He knew at that moment that he was loved and not alone. Fast forward a week, and we're talking about...

 Opaaaa! Tudo Bem! I hope everyone is doing well! This email is going to be really short, but this week was  quite incredible! We were blessed with finding some incredible people this week! But I'll just share the awesome story of Alef!  Alef! He is 18 and is really awesome! Four weeks ago he didn't believe in God, but when his dad kicked him out of his house and he moved into a member's house, he changed! He came to church, and he loved it! He accepted a Baptismal date for this Saturday, the 27th, and we hadn't taught him anything yet!!!! He is truly amazing! But, then we went to teach him the Restoration, at the end of the lesson he told us that he believed us! but we still wanted him to ask God if everything we taught was true and he did! He told us that when he finished the pray, he felt something that he had never felt before and that he knew that he wasn't alone and that God loves him!!! Crazy!!!  God is Real and Good and I can truly testify that he talks with...

Opaaaa! Como vocês estão? I hope everyone had an awesome week! This week was really amazing! First, we had the Baptism of Esther! She is truly amazing and had a great desire to learn and to come closer to Jesus Christ!  I just want to share how Elder Wilson and I were able to find her. So, it was late one night (close to 8pm) and we just had a lesson and we were walking back from it and we came to an intersection, and Elder Wilson asked the question "where are we going?" And responded with "I have no idea" Well, we stopped at that intersection and waited, thinking about where to go. Well, that's when I had a big impression to go left, so that's where we went, we both had no idea why, but we found out when we passed by some people outside their house. We both had an impression to turn around and talk to them, so that's what we did. And that's where we met Esther! It was truly awesome and we were truly blessed to have found her!
