Weekly
Update:
This week we
had several miracles. Ednalva came to church again and is really liking it and
will the baptized the 10th. We taught her the Word of Wisdom and she was
already stopping to drink coffee because of some health stuff! The Lord is
preparing as pessoas :)
We also
taught Bruna, also the Word of Wisdom. It was a very spiritual lesson. The Lord
really loves us so much that he not only wants our spiritual salvation but also
physical too. At the end Bruna asked us if you could get baptized with a
ponytail. We´re like ya. And I asked her how she was feeling about the Book of
Mormon and our messages and she said she got an answer and asked when she could
be baptized! We said we had thought about the 24th and she said why so long and
so she marked herself for the 17th :) We passed by another day and Ryan also
said he´d be baptized on the 17th as well. Lots of work and prayers and fasting
and we see miracles! I love this family so so much! It was such a great miracle
because there has been challenges for them and we had told them we would stop
passing by after they said they didn´t have an interest at the moment to be
baptized but we felt the need to return and our LD also told us to return and
continue teaching so that´s what we did and they marked themselves to get
baptized.
So we got
our call for this transfer and I was transferred to Geovani Gronchi which is in
the same zone I started my mission. It is a good area, almost certainly it will
be my last. It´s sad I won´t be here to baptize Ednalva or the Meninos as I call
them (maybe I´ll ask the pres to stop by to see the baptism) but I feel good
about all the hard work I did here in Macedônia. I know the Lord is prepairing
people in my next area too. I love the people and the members here. In 3 months
I´ll come back to visit and we´ll have a festa.
Other
updates Sister C. Silva will train a newbie and the elders that we share the
area with were both transferred and two new elders will arrive Tuesday here. I
was released as Sister Training Lider but I´m still the health person.
The area of
Geovani Gronchi is good. It has a
cominidade or favela in more of a frank term but also a super rich part.
It is weird
leaving Macedônia. Today I will go around saying bye to everybody. I think
that´s about it. Have a good week
Sister Haggard
