November 14, 2016 - Ribeirão das Neves

I see a Belo Horizonte.

Well, this week it started to rain again. So, things have gotten quite a bit colder. I'm enjoying it, but we run more of a risk of falling down. I haven´t fallen yet, but others have. I hope I didn´t curse myself.

We did another integration activity and had some investigators visit. They even brought refreshments for everyone. Everyone was grateful to eat some cake as it has been popcorn for the last three weeks, but I guess that´s what you get when the missionaries are in charge of the snack.

I decided to study the Book of Moses in the 'Pearl of Great Price' and I have really enjoyed the study. It explains really well the Plan of Salvation and each day I have received new insights. I think this also has to do with he fact that I have started keeping a study journal, which has really helped me focus my study and more importantly remember my study.

We were able to do a lot more visits with the members this week and visit their friends. This really helps the work move along. We have this great opportunity to be among the first to receive the gospel and as such it is our duty to share it. Why wouldn't we want to, if it makes people happier?

Randoms:

*  We talked with a mom of a member that wants to leave for a mission and we told her that it passes by fast and she responded, 'not for a mom.'

*Yesterday we were stopped by a drunk guy that wanted to talk English with us. He just kept repeating that My eyes were beautiful, but scared him. My companion and I got a good laugh about that afterwards.
