I love you!!!!
My week has been interesting...it
was a hard one for sure! i learned sooo much about teaching and the gospel, my
sweet companion, sister king, is soo patient with me! When we do companionship
practice teaching i always ask why we need to do this or why that is important
lol it really helps when you are teaching!!!
I’ve learned that I know the
gospel is true, but explaining it...a little different haha
I wrote a letter, but i think mail
will be slow for a while; the post office is on strike! o yah, when you
write letters. don’t forget to put the zip code!! i did get 3 at one time hahah
so you never know how long it will take!!!
I really am blessed to be here. I
have seen the district grow so fast! there’s an elder here, elder morris, who couldn’t
even read out of the portuguese book of mormon when we got here, and now when
we read he can read it really well, but he can go line for line and translate
it! it really is amazing to see the Lord shaping and molding us!
We had a devotional last night and
watched a talk from elder neal a. anderson to the provo mtc and one thing he
said I really liked. He was talking to missionaries and said that the Lord
will shape your back to be able to bear the burden placed upon it! I know that
the Lord is shaping me to withstand the trials and the successes I will have on
my mission!
oh! Sunday was my 1st day
conducting and we have a brasilera sister get up and share her conversion story
and someone to translate. Well I asked my roomie if she would share
her story and I would translate....omylanta! it was sooo bad!! We get
up and I’m trying to translate, I understood about a half of it haha I couldn’t
do it. I’m so glad there’s a brasilera sister there who can speak english too
so she helped me out a lot! I still have a lot to go with the language. But it’s
coming!
This gospel is true, it is hard,
but it’s worth it!! vale a pena!!!
Tell everyone thanks for the
prayers and support. I love you all so much. I’m on a mission for you
guys!!! I want you to know that. I love you so much
Love sister benedict
