At District meeting we did a soccer analogy and all shot 2 goals from long range and short range and compared it to the path arriving into the glorious waters of baptism and what we can do to help our investigators get there more easily. Before my first shot I did a squat to stretch my legs and heard a big rip. My pants ripped all the way down the back, more than 1 foot tear.. haha good thing we live close to the church.
The mission is incredible close to reaching the goal of the year of 500 baptisms and 75 for the month of December, right now we have 53 this month, to reach it it is critical that we baptize a convert in our district. We taught Sara and Veronica the Restoration this week and they want to be baptized! They came to church Sunday and loved it, the baptism is planned for this Saturday at 11!
Working is São Mateus Tuesday we felt that we should go to a certain apartment complex, we found Bruno who the Elders had taught 6 months ago and never returned, they gave him a Book of Mormon and he finished it in 6 days! It was a miracle finding him!
Friday all of our plans fell through in both companionship so we decided to go to a new city that we had never worked in. Porto Judeu and do a blitz with the 4 of us, we went there and had a great day of work, there are no buses that return that late so Irmão Frank gave us a ride back home, to thank him we went to Burger King and bought milkshakes.
My new organized studies have been great! It is so much easier to see what I have learned and what I need to work on.
The members here are so nice they have been giving us a lot of dinners and presents of chocolate and ties for Christmas, Angra is the best!
Espero que todos tenham uma feliz Natal!!
Tchau.
