Happy Monday!!
Well, the adventure of
working in a branch has continued!! The house has gotten a lot better, and
we're living pretty normally now. We're going to try and get a bit more done in
the bedroom today, so that we can actually use it, but other than that, it's going
pretty well! The craziness however hasn't calmed down yet though. We're now
teaching seminary to the youth, I gave a talk in church yesterday, Sister
Oliveira will be speaking next week, we had a mission tour with Elder Pinto
this last week, and had to travel to Recife, we're organizing family nights
with the branch, and so on! But it's been really great, and I much prefer it
like this than to not have anything to do. I'm learning and growing like never
before, and it's been exactly what I need to stay focused and continue working.
And not to mention, the
Lord has blessed us SO much!! We're finding so many people just waiting to hear
about the gospel! This last week we were waiting to cross the street when an
older woman and her husband called us over. They wanted to know what time our
church started, because we had passed and seemed so friendly because we said hi
that they wanted to know more!! It's incredible to see how the Lord has been
preparing people to hear about the gospel, and I'm excited to keep working and
see all of his miracles that are coming.
Have a great week
everyone!
Love,
Sister Shelton
A scripture that I read
that helped me out a bunch this week was Ether 3:7 "...Rise up. Why have
you fallen?" (or something like that- I'm translating it from Portuguese.)
Every time we fall, the Lord will always invite us to rise up again.
