My Purpose - To invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored Gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and his Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end! (Preach My Gospel, Page 1)

March 10, 2014- Cory has a new companion!

This week my first Brazilian Companion left and I got a new companion, he is from Texas and likes basketball and has been serving about a year. He’s been in Brazil 6 months and served in Missouri for 6 as well.

I think all the visa waiters are now going straight to the São Paolo Mission Training Center now when their Visas transfer through, I will not lie, a refresher on the basics of Portuguese would have made things easier, but I am grateful for all the experiences that I have had.

At church this week all 15+ people that we invited and said they would come to church all did not go to church, it was sad, but all we can do is invite and the rest is up to them.

One thing we did more of this week was teaching the restoration and inviting people to be baptized. :) :) :) :) :)

One guy we are starting to teach is fun to teach because he is excited to learn things and we have already invited him to read the Book of Mormon and pray about it; when we knocked on his house he ran out and set up a time for us to teach him again, it was cool! :)

We had a neat family home evening with some people too where we taught about the Holy Ghost, it was cool because people shared experiences of the Holy Ghost helping them out!

Com muitos sorrisos! :)

SIncerely, Élder Vernon
