Olá July!!
With President Nelson coming the first of September to São Paulo, President Miller has challenged the mission to prepare for his visit by reading the Book of Mormon completely and marking the first principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ: faith, repentance, baptism, gift of the holy ghost, and enduring to the end. If you have not already done this, I encourage you to start now!
Wow, my knowledge and testimony in the gospel has grown so much just in reading First Nephi because of the deepened understanding the Holy Ghost reveals when we truly ´´feast on the words of Christ.´´I promise a sincere growth in your testimony that Christ really is the Son of God and that He is the only path that leads to eternal happiness when we follow His example and press forward with hope.
My whole area is basically the street in California called ´´Mulhulland Drive´´ and the ride at Disney California Adventure land ´´Mulhulland Maddness´´ because it is all crazy hills and random turns (my legs are almost like Gastons in Belle). Why do we feel that mountains sometimes block our paths or stop us from progressing? If we follow the Savior with faith in His promise of eternal life when we keep His commandments and serve others of our own free will, we will be able to continue on the path ahead, even when there are mountains to climb. James 5:11
Sister Silva and I met with the Bishop this past week and he is very enthusiastic about missionary work and we are very excited to work with him and the members here in Vila Galvão! I love this great work of the Lord and know that He has a marvelous plan for each of us.
Have an awesome week and 4th of July!!
