I love my companion! She and I are sooo much alike! I am sad that she will be leaving me next week to go to the Sao Paulo MTC (CTM). I AM GOING TO BE A SOLO SISTER :( We have been teaching an investigator (teacher) by the name of Jenette. The first two lessons were pretty bad, but our last one was just amazing! She now understands that she has a loving Heavenly Father, and that she can have a better relationship with Him through prayer.
The Spirit is amazing when you are humble, and when you listen. Sunday was incredible and the talks I heard were inspirational. Those of us who were new watched "Characters of Christ" by David A. Bednar. If that doesn't make you feel that you need to totally repent because you are selfish, inconsiderate, and everything else that is mentioned in the scripture mastery about the natural man, something is wrong with you.....That was such a refreshing slap in the face!
I love it here! I love the sisters and elders in my district and zone! I love my investigator and my teacher! MY TEACHER IS AMAZING!! Irmao (brother) Machado has taught my companion and me so much! Oh yeah, as soon as I entered the MTC, I got my language materials and put my suitcase in my room, then I went to my classroom. He began teaching, but I couldn't understand a single word. He occasionally speaks in English to help us understand, but it is 98% Portuguese. I understand him now of course, because I can already say much more than I thought I could, otimo (awesome) right!? The lessons my companion and I give our investigator may feel tough sometimes because we are supposed to speak in Portuguese, but it is amazing how much the Spirit can influence! I love the gospel soooo much, it is making me become a better person. Jesus Christ is the reason that our Heavenly Father"s Plan is successful! I am already feeling very successful in what I am doing. Is it hard? Yes. Is it worth every moment? YES!!
