Another monthly email hahaha

 Bom dia!! Tudo joia?


Hey everyone!! How's everyone doing? It's been a bit since I wrote an email but here's a real quick recap of what happened!!

I got a new comp!! His name is Elder Lunos!! He's from São Paulo and a really good guy!! Well, I also just killed him off (in missionary terms that means he went home) so it was awesome an transfer but also a pretty difficult one.

Baptisms!
Andreia!: She is the mom of Ana Vitória who I had the blessing to baptize My second transfer in Coité!! Her story is really awesome, when we found them it was through a member reference and Andreia wanted to baptized really badly but she was living with a guy and had drinking problem. When her daughter was baptized she felt a huge feeling that she needed to stop drinking to be an example to her, and so she completely stopped!! Next, she felt she needed to separate from the guy she was living with and she did!! That next week she was baptized 😊

Fabrício!
He is such a funny guy, he is a friend of recent convert! He was super excited to be baptized until his Grandma said that he couldn't be baptized because there would be something in the water hahahaha, well it was pretty easy to explain to him that there wasn't anything in there and we showed him the baptismal font full of water on Sunday and afterwards he was all good 😂

Well after 3 transfers here in Coité I'm leaving.. 😭😭 I love this area and members, this was the best area that I have passed through and I'm so very grateful for the opportunity that the Lord gave to me to be here and meet these awesome people!!

But now I'm onto my last two transfers...😬😬 I'm now heading back down south to Itabuna!! Itabuna is right next too and in the same Zone as Nelson Costa, Ilhéus (which is my first area in Brazil, I also spent 3 transfers there as well) I'll be in an area called São Caetano!! I'm also getting a new comp! His name is Elder Kirby!! We where in the MTC together so I know him really well and we'll both be the ZLS for the Zone as well so it's going to be a blast!!! This is my sixth transfer as ZL so I'm super excited to apply all that I've learned these last transfers to help out the Zone!!

Finally my testimony, 
This work is true!! I love the Lord, I love the Gospel and I love the people I'm allowed to serve!! I testify that The Gospel of Jesus Christ blesses and strengthens every single person who is apart of it!! I know that my Redeemer lives!! In the name of Jesus Christ, amen!

Alrighty everyone I'm down to my last 12 weeks here but I ain't dying yet!! Got to give it my all!! Love you all!! Have a great week!! And see you sometime in the future!!
Com Amor,
Elder Giles

  Hey everyone!! How's everyone doing? Hope y'all are doing fantastic!! I'm doing fantastic as well!! Today my Email will be pretty short...it's been a bit since I last sent one... São Caetano: What an awesome área!! Elder Kirby and I arrived with nothing to work with but it has been a blast getting to know all members and finding A TON of people!!! Baptism: Yesterday we had the Baptism of Gleidson!! We found him the first day in our area and he is super special!! He is 55 years old and looking for a turn around in his life!! He had done a ton of things in his life (good and bad) but nothing brought him happiness that lasted or joy that lasted. Well he saw an ad from the Church about The Book of Mormon and wanted to read it...He didn't know we'd show up that same day with it kkkkkkkkk. Well, we explained it and explained the importance of following Christ through Baptism!! And he was super excited to learn more about The BoM and Baptism!! Also, he'd been pre...

Oiiiii gente!!! Tudo bem? How is everyone doing? I hope everyone is doing well and that this last week was great!! Because the Highlight of this past week was definitely General Conference!!! General Conference! What an awesome and spiritual blessing to listen to the Word of God through Prophets and Apostles in our day!!! I really loved every talk and I'm going to go back this week and study them a lot more and in English 🤣🤣 They all had messages that helped me understand what I need to do better as a missionary and a member of The Church of Jesus Christ!!! I just want to bear my testimony real quick about how trials help us in our lives!!! And that when we go to The Lord with our questions and our thoughts that he will respond and guide us!! These last few weeks I've definitely been praying more for guidance and knowledge of what I need to do and Heavenly Father answered my prays and questions with General Conference!!! I know that this Church is true, that Jesus Christ is t...
