Opa Oi Alo

We worked our butts off this week and it was great.

We are in a branch here but it has a lot more members than my last area. And we eat lunch with members every day.

This week we spent so much time looking for people. I’m helping my companion get over his fear to start a conversation with strangers. He is a great guy. Just quiet. We are trying to visit all of the less active members and updating "The LIST".

We visited some people that hadn’t been to church in months. Some haven’t been in almost a
year. I said to my companion that I would ask one guy to help us get to know the neighborhood and find some friends here. My companion said, “there is no way that he will want to help us”. But when we gave him a short lesson, shared testimonies and then asked him to come with us for the day, he said: “for sure”. We met a bunch of people and he bore his testimony of the church and the Book of Mormon and prayer.

As a missionary, you have to be bold you have to invite with conviction and a call repentance.
I’m trying to help my companion be more bold. We aren’t just another church, but we are the church of JESUS CRIST this is His church.

We are doing more searching, these days, in new areas.

Pray for Thyna and Roberto.
Pray for Luiz Roberto to trust more in the Lord.
Pray for Danise for her testimony.
Pray for Pedro.
Pray for Caio.
just pray for everyone here, they are needing it.

There are people readied by the Lord and we just have to find them. The field is white and ready for the harvest.

I love the church and love the Lord so much.
I want so bad to find the people who are searching for the truth and praying to find
US! We will keep on working until we do.
