I didn't know I liked McDonald's Fries until I had them in Palmas!!
Wow so many amazing miracles from this last week, don't know how I can write them all!! But one miracle from this past was the WEATHER 🤩 usually I am sweating to death, but this week was soooo nice! And when I say so nice, It was still pretty hot haha, but more overcast. So a miracle indeed.
We have our friend Amanda who we gave a Book of Mormon to last week and this last week we also went on a walk with her! She really likes to work out, and even talked about running *i hate running* and luckily, another miracle, we didn't go running! Hahaha! But she always leaves for work during the weekend and doesn't message too much... so we are going to meet up with her and her friend tomorrow!
With missionary work, pretty much everything is online. So we have been contacting all the contacts we have in our phone, which is good practice with Portuguese! But we found a bunch of people though this who wanted to learn more, I think about 5 people! But they all live in different areas.... so we sent out a lot of referrals. But the good thing with referrals is that we get BLESSINGS for helping out other missionaries! At least that's what I like to think haha.
One of the people we called this week... her name.... is Caroline.. can someone say AWKWARD to have to talk to someone with your name? Especially when for the past 15 1/2 months you have been called Sister. It was weird haha, but guess what. Miracle! She wants to learn more! We set up a time to go and give her a Book of Mormon!
The city I am in right now, Palmas, is on a pretty strict lockdown... so we aren't doing any church services in person, but this last week we got invited to a fun activity with the youth! We were able to get permission to go! So we got all dressed up nice, because it would be our first time meeting any members in person in our ward lol. Well, we show up and turns out it was a service activity.... so we did our service in our nice dresses. It was awesome! We were able to get some yummy food afterwards!!
Service Activity and meeting the Youth
So we get a text message from this random girl that we don't know, her name is Ana Carolina. She is a member and is adorable and was explaining how she was getting set apart as a missionary the next day and was wanting to inviting the other sisters who were here to the setting apart! We explained how we were the new sisters, and she asked us we would come and be there with her! So we went! And it was so cool. And then after, she had her name tag ready to put on, and she looks over at me and asks me to help her put on her name tag... TENDER! It was a really cool experience and the spirit was really strong there. So grateful for those willing to serve missions ♡
I always like to save the biggest miracle for last, and this truly is an amazing miracle! Our friend Brenda is on date to get baptized! She is on date for this weekend, the 24th and she is just so adorable. We went over and taught her a lot this week, and she even invited her boyfriend who is also pretty interested in learning more! God is good! Everyone keep Brenda in your prayers that her baptism goes to plan 😁
Morôni 7:29 - " ...meus amados irmãos, cessaram os milagres? Eis que vos digo que não."
Moroni 7:29 - " ...my beloved brethren, have miracles ceased? Behold I say unto you nay."
Miracles are all around us, we just have to make sure we are doing things we need to so the spirit can show these miracles to us!
Love you all, have an amazing week and pray for Sister Guilott to continue to have the gift of tongues and for Brenda!
♡Sister Guilott♡
