Happy Semana Santa!!!

Hey everyone!!! Happy Semana Santa!!!! Hope you all are doing amazing, and had the opportunity to watch General Conference this weekend! 


This week has been a little bit interesting, luckily this week no one was sick, because last week everyone was super sick. This week we had Zone Conference on Thursday, which is always super fun and insightful! We talked alot about being guided by the spirit and how we have power when we are 100% obedient to the Lord's commandments!


Then we had an activity at the church that us missionários put on! It was a movie night, it was a huge success both the night of and now afterward!!! We invited two wards to the activity and both of them found a new sort of excitement about missionary work! They are so excited that we're already doing another activity this Tuesday, which will be a barbeque! I'm so glad it gave them that sort of spirit, because activities are the best way to show people what the church is about!! 


This weekend was also General Conference!! It was so sick, sadly so was Elder Holland, I really felt touched this GC to focus more on the Lord. Especially to try and be more like Him in everything I do,- ex; be a peacemaker, and be an example of Him in all of my daily activities! For those of you who don't know what General Conference is, it's a time where we get to hear the words of our dear prophet and apostles, they give talks inspired by the spirit that guide us with what we should do, go give it a listen!!!


We also had a baptism in-between the two sessions on Sunday!!!! Beatriz, she's the daughter of a recent convert that was baptized about 3 weeks ago. It was so cool, on Saturday she asked us to call her around 3, so we did, but had no clue why.  When we called she told us that she wanted to be baptized! It was an amazing experience for both her and her mom!!!

Hey everyone, sorry it's been a little while since the last time I wrote. It's been a crazy few weeks.  So I'm here in my new area still São João Del-Rei, I've been assigned to this area for 3 weeks now, but only have been here physically for 2. The first week was super hectic, but the past two weeks have been amazing! Last week after finding a member that's been inactive for a little while, he led us to a few teens that have already been to church a few times! They are super super cool, they love the gospel and going to church! We had them on date to get baptized for this past Sunday, but sadly their mom doesn't feel like they're old enough to make the decision on their own, yet. So we're trying to help the whole family now see the truthfulness of the gospel!  Also, we found this other guy, he was a referral through other missionaries, we've met with him only a few times because his life is super busy. Last time we meet with him was Saturday, we pla...

E aí cachorro, como vai. What's up everyone!!! this week has been pretyy wild, let me explain... Tuesday (dia de cavalo)- every Tuesday we get home late in the day because we have to travel 2 hours from where our district meets for district meeting, so it's never a full day of missionary work. However, this Tuesday we got home especially late, at 1:00 and had to wait until 3 to eat lunch, so when we were finally ready to work it was already almost 5, a lot later than usual!! So all we did was a ton of street contacts.  We wanted to get to know an area of our city that we haven't seen yet, so we went for a walk on the freeway (you read that right, the FREEWAY!), which surprisingly had a bunch of people walking on it. There we met this guy named João.  We started out talking to him about his life, and he seemed pretty cool.  We then asked if we could share a message with him, and his response was right now no, I lost my horse, I need to find him. We thought that was a ...
