The Bishop from the Benfica ward in Lisbon moved to Pinhal Novo a city in our branch so now we have one more priesthood holder and are getting very close to being a ward!
We had another Workshop with the leaders, Assistant Elder Egbert worked with us and talked about joking around and having fun on the road and with contacts. That afternoon I talked with everyone in Black shirts and Elder Angulo talked with everyone walking dogs, the next day we had 5 levels of things we had to say in contacts and whoever lost had to fill out the progress record for correlation, They were, Banana, Ferrari, Law of Chastity, Dress standards and baptismal invitation, we had to try to smoothly say these in the contacts and teach a doctrine to make it count, it was pretty funny at the end when we were walking super fast contacting people about the law of chastity haha. Joking around like that made things a lot more light and fun.
We met a 21 year old Canadian named Michael who was walking from Lisbon to Madrid and passed by Montijo, it was his third day and he was clueless about a few things so we helped him out and gave him some information about the area, where to buy food and watching out for the gypsies. Hope he is doing well out there haha
I ran a 5k Thursday morning in 24:29, not to bad for gaining 20 pounds and not running forever, i hooked my GPS watch to the computer it was super cool to see where we walked throughout the day.
Saturday our Zone had a fast for our investigsators to arrive to church, It was pretty difficult because we walked a ton but it payed off with Irmão Dorado arrivving to church Sunday!
Two weeks ago I downloaded the entire General Conference on my MP3 player last night i finished listening to it again, so grateful for living prophets to guide us in these latter days!
