Olá Família!
This last week was good. We taught Vera and Rojelho a couple more times this week. They kept their commitment to read the Book of Mormon and pray. They had a pretty big financial problem from medical bills 20 years ago and didn't have a way to pay. But when we visited them again on Wednesday, they had a cake and soda for us. They explained that when they went in to the medical place to try settle the debt, everything went perfectly, and from what i understand, either it was cleared or they have more time. I am not sure which because they have free health care here. Either way it was a miracle. They were very appreciative of us visiting them, and were even more receptive. They are really good family, but Rojelho still works Sundays and Vera couldn't make it to church. But their testimony of faith and scriptures, and prayer are really strong. So we will try to guide that better this week. We had divisions again also so that was fun. I was able to show the other missionary around to all of our investigators so that was good. We tried to have a family home evening with a family of active and inactive members. We arrived and the inactive mom was in her room sleeping, the brother never came down stairs, and the dad was at work. So we taught a short lesson to the active members of the famly. We watched the video the atonement and missionary work. I will put the link on the bottom. It is a really good video that helps put things in perspective. Well, i dont have much time. Can´t wait to talk to you guys next week!! I will try to call on skype at 7 pm brasil time, so 4 pm your time i think. Hopefully that doesn´t interfere with the ohther missionaries. haha. Love you guys!
