Oi!
You guys, Manoela is incredible! It has been one week since her baptism and she said that this week was the absolute best. She has been reading a ton of General Conference talks from April, wants to serve a mission, and participated a lot in Relief Society yesterday. We are preparing her to go to the temple to do baptisms for the dead and she is super excited!
This week we had a really neat experience about prayer and the purpose of Zion in each of our stakes and wards. We felt impressed that when we had lunch with the members this week to give them a list of names of investigators that are progressing and invite them to pray for them individually by name in their family prayers. What a blessing to see those humble and faithful prayers answered yesterday at church when every single one of the people came to church. The faith of the Saints plays a big role in helping gather Zion and I am grateful to be a part of this exciting work. We all have a key part and role in Zion.
One Irmã we visited has very few things in her house and her walls are bare, but she has a simple picture of the Salt Lake Temple that hangs by a piece of tape. As I was pondering the importance of this one photo of the SLT, the Spirit testified that that was the place where Zion would be built and be spread across to all areas of the world. The difficulties of the Pioneers to reach the Great Salt Lake Valley was a sacrifice for all the generations that would follow. We sang together with her ´´Come, Come Ye Saints´´ as it is a calling from our dear Savior, to come, follow Him and gather together in Zion, ´´as one heart and one mind.´´
How can we help those who have gone astray? How can we be a little nicer and caring to our Brothers and Sisters in our wards and stakes? How can we better serve like the Savior did?
Have a great week!
Keep praying and keep building up Zion!
