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)

Uruguaiana!

November 24, 2014

This week Elder Farias and I continued to work until the dust, ´´até o pó.´´ We are teaching a bunch of recent converts and also have some cool families that we are inviting the spirit to teach.

There was a great family home evening of the ward that one of the Brothers in the Ward began a tradition to give out a Book of Mórmon every week for one of the people in the ward to give to someone and to share their experience the next week at the next family home evening. Also it was funny talking with him because afterwards there was cake to eat. Thus I ate two pieces of cake but my companion ate 5; 

Also I nearly missed taking the sacrament because we confirmed with one of our investigators that we would wait for him to enter the chapel with him because he was running late. After waiting and waiting, right as the sacrament was starting he showed up and everything went well; it was very close though.

Presidente Parrela interviewed us too which is always cool because it gives me a chance to think about how I can best serve the Lord and serve him in the way that he wants me to serve that will help everybody in the best ways possible. A piece of advice that he gave was to remember that even though we want to baptize during our mission the most important soul that we will ´´convert´´ will be our own and that we need to be able to say ´´ I know that my redeemer Jesus Christ lives.´´

Com muitos sorrisos! ;) :) :)Elder Vernon :)


After waiting 4 months for his last package, he received his Christmas Package a month early.  We are just happy he got it and things weren't stale yet.
