Hunting Dinosaurs
Today we went dinosaur hunting for p-day (see attached
pictures). We found out that Jurassic Park is in our Zone so we went there with
another companionship for P-day which was pretty fun. We managed to find a
couple but the foam and metal used to construct them weren't too tasty so it
was a good thing we brought ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch.
Travels (again)
We lost a few days of work again this week because of
exchanges and a leadership counsel in Sorocaba (another city) that we had to
travel to that we didn't know was going to happen until two days before. There
were some great things we learned though at that meeting. President played a
video from Elders Holland and Eyering about missionary work and the atonement
that was super inspiring. It helped us think about how when we're exhausted or
think we can't do more, we should think of Christ and how he persevered when it
was hard and when He was tired.
Member Missionary
There is an awesome Sister in our ward that lives in the
neighborhood where we're working. We always teach a certain recent convert in
her house that she introduced to the gospel. We stopped by her house to get
some water one day and asked her, "Which of your friends or family members
will be the next person that we will baptize?" And she stopped and thought
just as one boy was running through her house and asked "Hey Renato, were
you baptized at the same time with your mom?" and he said "No"
and she said "Well sit down then the missionaries are going to help you be
baptized" and he stopped and listened to our lesson and we marked his
baptism. As soon as he left another non-member came in and we taught him in her
house as well. It is cool to see a member that doesn't have any fear to help
the people around her meet the missionaries and learn about the Gospel.
I'm having a great time and learning a ton,
Tchau,
Elder DP
