Many pitched in helping with decoration, cake, brigadeiros, mayonnaise sandwiches (ekkkkk...definantly not my thing), and salgadinhos. But the greatest moment was seeing Cíntia enter into the waters of baptism. She has been eggarly waiting for this moment for over a month now, and was anxious to follow Christs example. When we asked her what baptism meant to her she said "It will be one of the most important days of my life. It will be celebrated like my second birthday because I will be born again!" The baptisimal font heater didn´t end up working, and Cíntia was baptized in water so cold that it basically had ice cubes. When the branch president asked her if she was still up for being baptized and she responded, "Well, if it is for me to be born again, let´s DO IT" The poor thing looked like she almost passed out because it was so cold, but she was a trooper. Definantly a moment that she will never forget...</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">- I have been praying a lot recently,asking Heavenly Father what I still need to change/do better in this last feel moments as a misionary. I wanted to know what else he wanted me to learn and take with me to appy for the rest of my life. Well, I asked for it, this week Elder Aidukaitis (the area president of Brazil visited our mission and the answer hit me like a ton of bricks. His training was basicall putting the hammer down about how we need to elevate the way that we plan and make goals. His words were strict, forward, a bit harsh, but truly needed to be heard. He said that we need to dominate the techniques and principes of making goals and plans becuase it is only through doing this that we will make a great difference and reach our full potential What is the difference that you will make? How will you get there?</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I can´t believe that my time as a full time misionary and represenative of christ is coming to an end... I know that I will never ever get this time back, so I will use every last drop of energy. Choosing to serve a mission was the best choice that I made, and truly has changed my life. I can´t even begin to express my gratitude for this unbelievable experience. I have been blessed with so many spiritual experiences, miracles, and tender, unforgetable moments. I remember when I was preparing for my mission I kept thinking "serving a mission will be such a huge sacrifice, because there are so many things that I will leave behind." But what I have come to realize, is that serving a mission isn´t a sacrifice, it is a privilage. It is an honnor to be doing what Christ would do if he were on the earth today: going to house and house teaching the gospel, loving the people, and giving hope and light to those in need.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I have seen so many lives changed, especiallly mine.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I am proud to say that I truly gave my all. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I have learned so many things over this past year and a half, but of all the things I have come to strength my testimony that Christ lives, he is our beloved Savior, and that his church is on the earth today. I have come to know my Savior, and feel his close, constant presence in my life. I know that he payed the price for our sins, and knows our every need. He felt our sorrows, pains, sicknesses, frustrations, stresses, doubts, and our burdens. He knows each and everyone of us perfectly. He loves us.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I love the people of Brazil. My heart feels like it is tearing apart....but I know that he Lord has a plan for me.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">So greatful all the support that I have been given....I have the best family in the world!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">com amor,</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span>Sister Hannah- Porto Alegre Northhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02031016253981626343noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237798801541458221.post-22487478879406248492017-07-24T17:47:00.000-07:002017-07-24T17:47:51.998-07:00July 17, 2017<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Querida Família,</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-I just can´t believe how many miracles we have had here in Campo Bom...the Lord truly blesses us in double when we are dilligent and obediente in keeping his commandments. Highlight of this week was that FINALLY after about 4 months, Jackie and Sergio were baptized!! Our branch helped us throw a wedding for them on Friday, and on Saturday they entered the waters of baptism. Sister Jolley and I sang a mix up in English and Portuguese of “Families can be together Forever” and “I love to see the temple” It was such a special experience to see them all in white, making a sacred promise and covenant with Heavenly Father. Can´t even explain how happy I am!!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-This Sunday there were 4 confirmations in sacrament meeting: Lisangela, Jackie, Sergio, and little 8 year old Bruno. One of those speical moments that I will never forget...</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Another highlight was that this week Sister Jolley and I had a ROAD TRIP with President and Sister Campos! We went to the coast of the Rio Grande do Sul to visit Tramandaí, Osório, Imbae, and other áreas. Finally I got to visit the beach...so that was increadible. We stayed in a Hotel over looking the ocean, and were spoiled to wake up to watch the sun rise. Talk about a missionaries dream coming to pass. I know that the Lord blesses us imensly when we do what he asks, the rewards are wonderful!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">As part of this road trip we participated in the the Osório Zone meeting, and also did inspections of the missionaries apartments. Let me just say....Elders are such slobs!! My goodness. I don´t know how they stand to live in such smelly, dirty, grows atmospheres. The bathrooms, refridgerators, and basically everything was just nasty I swear, there was mold and fungus living in those walls..Poor Sister Campos has to make these visits weekly. It was quite an experience....unforgetable actually. But hilarous how afterwards Sister Campos got on their tails, and inverviewed them about the importance of cleaning and even taught them how to do so.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Sister Jolley and I have been doing insanity for a few weeks now, and finally our apartment complex has complained...apparently there is too much movement and jumping around during the “silent hour”... now what?</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Or recent convert, Adilson, asked us, “Why are missionaries so happy? “ Well, it´s because we are privelaged to serve all day long. It´s because we forget ourselves, and are always looking to help Heavenly Father´s children. It´s because we have come to feel the Lords constant presence and unconditional love in our lives. It´s because we are helping the Savior in his sacred, urgente work to share the gospel to all the world!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Te amo!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

I still am so astonished by how increadibly prepared she was by the Lord to be baptized. We met her only 9 days before she was baptized, and it was my greatest pleasure to teach her. She is an increadible mother, and is looking for a change in her life. She has such a desire to serve, and live the commandments with exactness. She was baptized by Aldroaldo, a recent convert who gave us her referal. Aldroaldo also baptized his 8 year old son with Lisangela, which was a special experience for him and us. Great news is that 3 of Lisangela´s kids went to the baptism, and they are all interessted...especially knowing that one day they too can go to a foreign land and serve a mission like us!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Glad to hear that your fouth of July went well! A member here, Vanessa, made homemade hamburgers completely American style. Hand made patties topped with cheese, pickles, homemade guacamolé, onions, lettuce, tomatoe, BBQ sauce, mustand, ketchup, doritos, and a side of fries. And for dessert brownies.....it was glorious. Almost the best meal that i´ve had here in Brazil....Jk i love the brazilian food too.....</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-So our mission, Porto Alegre North, is on fire!!!! Out of the 34 missions in Brazil, our mission is ranked #4 in the number of convert baptizms! That´s right, we are in the top 5 with the Rio, Fortaleza east, and Recife. Our mission presidents are incredible, and they are always helping us get motivated and to realize that we are capable of so much more!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Campo Bom is also progressing immensly!! Finally our branch has been approved to move our local to a larger space!! The little blue house where we are at now is just horrid.....and not to mention that it has been broken into many times (including a few weeks ago). We are moving into a building where we will rent the whole bottom floor.. The best part is, the building is completely new, so we won´t have any more issues with ant infestations, or issues with the roof falling apart, and rain drenching all the sacrament meeting chairs.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">When they announced the great news to our branch, there was such a burning strong spirit. Everyone has been working so hard giving us referals, and inviting their friends to church. I know that after acts of faith and hard work is when the miracles come. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I feel so imesnsly blessed! So many great things are happening....</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Love you all! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

They explained how to arrive, and he followed their request. he describled these 2 women as missionaries like us but the interesting part is that Sister Jolley and I are the only sisters here in campo bom. I can´t help but think that heavenly father send some of his angels to lead kevin to the truth. he had been looking for the right path, and was ready to start a new life. He got emotional at his baptism, and it was such a special experience to see Kevins progress.

It was so increadible, they were all glowing with excitement to arrive in the best mission in the world: Brazil Porto Alegre North. Arrived a lot of Sisters from The North East of brazil, that are already dying of coldness....the poor things. Winter has not even arrived yet!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-This week we taught a man named William who was giving us a hard time. he kept inturupting us during the lesson, asking questions that had nothing to do what we were teaching, etc. But Sister Jolley and I exercised our patience, and answered each and every question delicatly. Finally, William got all quiet, and he asked, "Do you love what you do? Do you love being a missionary?" Sister Jolly and I looked at eachother, and uncontrolably smiling I said, "yes, we love it will all of our hearts". William looked us straight in the eyes, and said "I know, I can feel it and see it in your eyes" The sucker said that he was trying to "test" us to see if were "true cristians". And he told us that the way that we reacted with him, gave him the certainty that we are true represenatives of christ, and that what we teach is the truth. hopeing that Willliam will be baptised here in a bit!</span></div>

So many of them couldn´t stop the tears, when they explained how their lives completly changed when they found the truth, and when they were baptized. I know that with the restored gospel in our lives, we are so increadibly blessed, and we need to recognize the value of this.</span></div>

<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">This week went great! Sister and I spend a bit of time out of our area because of trainings in Porto Alegre, but the Lord truly blesses us with miracles! Like President Campos says: for much is given, much is required. And for much required, much is given.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Here are some highlights:</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Training reunion with missionaries with 6-12 week in the field and their trainers. I love working with new missionaries, so so much. A lot of them were having struggles, and a bit discouraged. I shared some stories with them about how the first few weeks in the field were some of the hardest weeks of my life. We talked a lot about trusting in the Lord, and his plan, and being pacient with yourself. We got them all excited to continue working with joy, and forgetting yourself and going to work!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Star meal of the week: sunday we had churrasco with lamb, pork and chicken... with sides of broccoli and rice hmm. Dessert was crepes with chocolate, banana, sweet and condenced milk, and marshmallows.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-A member invited us to her english school, Wizard, to speak english with the students. And man did Sister Jolley and I have trouble speaking english....every time we tried, Portuguese came out! The kids did not believe that we were Americans because we literally could not speak straight enlgish sentances. Finally we had to show our licences, and idenities so they would believe us. There was one kid who asked me why I painted my hair red, and another asked if he could teach us swear words in portuguese....hahhaha</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Miracles!!! Kevin (with prayers and fasts) will be baptized this sunday! He shared his testimony with us about how the Lord is blessing him and opening up lots of opportunites for him. It is so clear that the Lord has been preparing him to be baptized. He was a drug addict, alcoholic, smoked, etc. but has stopped for 10 months now. wooohooo</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-And Jackie and Sergio´s wedding is all marked! Now we just need to get on doing the wedding invintations, and decoration! July 14=wedding, July 15=baptism, and july 16<</span><a href="x-apple-data-detectors://2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">x-apple-data-detectors://2</a><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">> = confirmation!!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Our mission, Brasil Porto Alegre Norte, is reading the Book of Mormon together in 90 days! My testimony of the book of mormon has been strengthened imensly. It has a power, and outstanding influence in my life.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">I know that Heavenly Father hears our prayers and our pleadings. He is aware of our every need. He loves his children, and his greatest desire is that we return to his presence!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Love you all!!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />

He gave us more than 8 references this week, and still has so many more to give! One of his miracle references was Samuel, a 20 year old guy who lives alone with his 3 year old daughter. The mother of his daughter left him and their daughter to be a prostitute... and Samuel is really upset and broken up inside about this. Their house is very, very small (i think the size of a walk in closet), and in the house there is only 2 chairs, a bed, a fridge, and a small-ripped up couch. When we taught Samuel, we focused on faith, the repentance process, and how through baptism we can be pure from all of our sins, and begin a new life. Samuel needs to stop smoking, but has such a determination to be baptized, and it will happen in no time! </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-Let me just begin to tell you that this was one of the most hilarious weeks of my mission. Because.....we baptized Napolian Dynimite!! Well his portuguese-speaking clone, of course (named Adilson). He is just a hoot (as mom would say) and has the funnies comments that make us roll on the floor laughing. Imagine 30 year old, tal, skinny man, with curly hair, a bold spot, big glasses with small hoop earings. He was a reference from Alan (recent convert) and he has such a desire to change, and follow Christ´s example. He loves to listen to gospel music (especially a singer called Fernandindo...who I think is very strange), and always shows us his “Jesus notebook” with quotes and scriptures that he studied. Like alot of people, he has a past that he is not proud of, and he is ready to completely change his life. Every lesson we taught him he would say “I don´t have a problem with this to be baptized”. He said that he wants to be a “true” mórmon that converts all his friends to be mormon aswell, and he wants to serve a mission for 3 years....hahaha! He is too great. His baptism Sunday had the whole room dying of laughter. Poor slob, the water was ice cold, and he began letting out yelps even before he was dunked down. After the baptisimal prayer, Adilson went under the water and .5 seconds later he shot out, jumping around, gasping for air, and waving his arms all over the place. Hahahha Irmã Neusa said that he looked like a cat, deathy affraid of the water. Sister Jolley and I could not stop laughing for the next 3 hours!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-Anyways, we have been working with Alan to be confirmed becasue for the last 2 Sundays he was working and didn´t go to church, and we think that he may have fallen into drinking again. So this week we visited him each and everyday to prepare him mentally and spiritually do be there. He just loves <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1" x-apple-data-detectors-type="misc" x-apple-data-detectors="true">the Book of Mormon</a>, and he had a spiritual experience with it this week, that helped him understand that Heavenly Father truly hears his prayers and knows him perfectly. (it was Alma 42 verses 29-31) We also did a object lesson to help him understand the great value that he has in the sight of God. We brought a dollar, and explained to him that no matter what you do to a dollar, (crumple it up, lose it under your bed for months, step on it, or even rip it a little bit, it is still 1 dollar). At the end we gave him the dollar, and wrote on it “The value of souls is great in the sight of God”. He adored it, and he thanks us so much for not giving up on him. He said “when you leave Campo Bom, I want you to have a different image of who I am. I want you see me as the new Alan”. It is increadible to see the atonement work through Heavenly Fathers Children!</span></div>

Who would have known that I would come to love giving trainings! I was a bit nervous at first, but I am learning that the Lord truly makes us capable to fulfill the callings that he gives us. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Família,</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hope that you all are doing well, it looks like Seth and Megans reception was gorgeous! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Here are some highlights of this week:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-This week we taught Tamiris for the second time, and we were very impressed with her progress. The first time we visited her she said that she had never prayed before or even entered a church in her whole life. This week she said that she had prayed, and asked Heavenly Father if he was really there. Her words were very touching when she said, “I know that he was listening.” Our lesson with her was going well until we heard loud foot steps approaching....her husband. Who is pretty much anti religion, anti-God. When he saw us there, he started literally started shaking with anger, entered the house, and slammed the door after him (basically locking us in)There were so many thoughts running through my mind as to what would happen, but I put my trust in the Lord that he would protect us. After many minutes of repeatidly screaming and then silence, we got up, thanked Tamiris and told her that everything would be alright, and left. Let´s just say that the scene was super tense... Poor Tamiris obviously is so unhappy with him, and it made me sad that she was put into that position. But I know that Heavenly Father has a plan for her, and we will for sure visit her again.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-I have been learning a bit more about patience and I just loved this quote from President Monson, “Life is full of difficulties, some minor and others of a more serious nature. There seems to be an unending supply of challenges for one and all. Our problem is that we often expect instantaneous solutions to such challenges, forgetting that frequently the heavenly virture of patience is required.” I know that patience truly is an atribute necessary for the Celestial kingdom, and we need to stive to have patience with each and person. I often think about the patience that Heavenly Father has with us! We are always making mistakes, again and again, and yet he is patience and willing to forgive us as many times as necessary. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-This week my testimony of establishing goals has grown even stronger. I know that our goals reflect our greatest dreams and the desires of our hearts. They are a vision of what we want to accomplish, and attain. As Elder Ballard said, “When one learns to máster the principles of setting a goal, he will then be able to make a great difference in the results he attains in this life”. Each day we set goals of how many baptisimal dates we will set, how many new investigators we will meet, how many lessons, etc and throughout the day we are determined to reach these goals. I am so greatful that my misison has taught me to live an organized life, and to challenge myself to go beyond my limits. I have learned that when we do all that we can, the Savior will make up for the rest that we lack. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-I know that when life gets hard, we need to remmber the WHY. When we have doubts or feel discouraged, we need to remember that the reason we need to keep trying is because of Christ. He knows what we are going thourgh, and He is the only one who who knows exactly how we feel. Trust in him and he will guide your path. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I just love being a missionary, and to help the Lord in his urgent work! I am learning so much, and truly depending to trust in the Lord with all my heart, might, mind and strength!!</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">It was so great to see some familiar faces, and talk to all of you yesterday. Strange enough, it felt like all a dream that came, and went so fast. Once again, Happy Mother´s day to the best mom that anyone could have. I am so so greatful for you and everything that you do for me. There are so many thing I love and cherish about you, you mean so much to me! I hope that you day was special, and that you know that each of us kids just adore you and are so greatful for you!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">My mothers day went a bit like this: </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-Running around to get our investigators do church (4 miles before <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors="true">9:00am</a>..) but it was great because we had Betty Johan, Denise, Olrile, and Linda (who are from Haiti) all there. Also Raquel and Fabiana. It was a wonderful sacrament meeting focused on mothers, and the importante role that they have in Heavenly Fathers plan. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-After church we had lunch with a Family which was homemade pizza, and chocolate cake, working to get in all of our lessons, and meeting Gods elects, and highlight, talking to all of you! Sorry that my english was a bit rough...</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">This week I focused a lot on studing more and more about Christs Atonement. In Elder Balard´s words: “Christ´s Atonement also enablel us to do good and become better in ways that stretch far beyond our mortal capacities. The Savior has suffered not just for our sins and iniquities but also for our physical pains and anguish, our weaknesses and discouragement, our regrets and remorse, our despair and desperation, the injustices and inequitie we experience, and the emotional distresses that beset us. There is no physical pain, no spiritual wound, no anguish of soul of headache, no infirmity or weakness you or I ever contront in mortality that the Savior did not experience first.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I am so greatful to know that Christ understands us perfectly and knows what trials and difficulties we are passing. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I was able to see the Atonement work in Ana´s (an investigator) life this week. She has smoked all her life and thought that she was uncapable of stopping. We have been working for her for a few weeks now, and this week she told us an experience of what happend with her. She said that everytime she went to smoke, she looked at the Picture of Christ that we gave her, and she make it to 3 days of not smoking. On the 4th day, she had a stress case and went to smoke. She said she put the cigarette in her mouth, and got so nauseous that she through the cigarrette from her and vowed to never, ever smoke again. MIRACLE!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br />--Let me just say that I just love Campo Bom. I have such a love for the people here, that it is starting to feel like home to me. The branch here is full of generous people who are always willing to help us with lunch, rides, references, and support for us and our investigators. Yesterday in sacrament meeting was another spiritual testimony meeting, and I could not help but be amazed. Yes our attendance is small, but we is growing immensly. Yesterday we had 52 people presente at church, and each and every person makes such a difference in our small entity. I have never seen a group of members with such a strong unity. Our church building is a small blue house with lots of mold, ant hills, and completly falling apart. But that does not stop the members from inviting their friends, and bringing such a sweet, markable spirit.<br />I am so so so greatful that I will be staying here yet another transfer! Tá dinha Sister Sá only stayed here 1 transfer and has already been moved to Bento Gonsalves. And looks like I will be staying here in Campo Bom till the end!!! (Almost 8 months in total).<br /><br />--My new companion is Sister Jolly from Texas! President Campos created a new designation, we have been called to be the “test drive”. Not quite sure what it is called, something like Sister Leader Training Leader. Which basically means now we will be responsable for all of <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://2" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="2" x-apple-data-detectors-type="misc" x-apple-data-detectors="true">the other Sister</a><<a href="x-apple-data-detectors://2">x-apple-data-detectors://2</a>> Leaders. It will be different for me because I was used to working with new missionaries, but now we will be working with Sisters who already have a lot of experience, and are leaders. Excited to see how it goes!<br /><br />Side notes from this week> I have discovered that I am deathly (almost) alergic to cats. Even if a cat slithers on by, I start sneekzing, eyes water, and my nose itches verywhere.<br />--we had 4 Haitians come to church, another middle-aged couple , and a 9 year old girl who are ELECTS and truly prepared by the Lord.<br /><br />--Alan was baptized!! And let me talk about a spiritual baptism. It was undescrible. Akzã (recent convert and son-in-law) baptized him and Amanda (his daughter) gave a burning testiony at the end. Her words literally were the definition of “ talking from the heart”. Imagine the whole room crying... definantly a feeling and moment that I will never forget.<br /><br />--This week I was able to be a special witness of the power of fasting, and the miracles that are ceased when we exercise our faith. We have been working with a kid named Gustavo for weeks now, but he never accepted the fact that he needed to be baptized because he was “already baptized” in another church. He has been coming to church for a month now, and we tried just about everything to get him to understand the importance of being baptized by someone who has the proper autority. My companion and I fasted and prayed that his heart would be touched. After we ended our fast, we headed to his house, filled with faith and confidence that the Lord would do His part. And what happend...Gustavo FINALLY accapted to be baptized this coming Saturday<<a href="x-apple-data-detectors://3">x-apple-data-detectors://3</a>>. I love my Heavenly Father, and I know that he hears and answers our prayers. He is so merciful.<br /><br />--I know that each soul is great in the sight of God, and each person has great value. I am trying to see as Christ does and do as he would if He were in my place. I love God´s children, and it so importante that each and every one of us does our part so that they can return to His presence. Do your part in the rescue of the lost sheep.<br /><br />Com Amor,<br />Sister Hannah</span><div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">-There was a hurricane (ish) that came through Campo Bom Tuesday that had just about everything flying up in the air. Sister Sá and I even got wacked in the head by a few things....including lots of tree branches, some mans underwear, leaves, posters, lots of trash, and (I think) a coconut. I was wearing a long maxi skirt, and some how a gust of wind blew my skirt way over my head....talk about embarassing! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">More than half of the city was without energy, and that means street lights as well. We were walking in the pitch dark, litera[lly walking with faith that we wouldn´t fall into a hole.

During the lesson, Pedro had his eyes fixed on us, smiling. At the end he told us to wait for him to write a letter. He handed me a cute, handmade letter and said "This letter is for Jesus". He gave my companion and I each about 5 hugs and told us how he loved our message. This little boy truly touched my heart. I have such a certaintly that he was able to see and feel what many people dont --that we are represenatives of Jesus Christ. It was such a tender experience for me, to share the love of Christ with him and his family. I love children. They are so pure, innocent, and Christ-like! </span></div>

Here are some highlights:</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-First learning experience, dogs are not my thing. I love campo bom, but I swear there are more dogs than people in the city, it´s insane! Sister Sá and I got attacked by 4 angry little-ones. Lucky she beat them off with her umbrella and book of mormon while I ran off calling for someone to save us....hahah these dogs! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Adriana our recent convert and her family are progressing more and more. This week she gave the prayer at the adult session of Stake Conference. We weren´t there, but we were told that it was such a powerful prayer that even had people crying. I know that the Lord prepars his children for the true gospel! Her husband, João recieved the priesthood, and I know that their family will be so blessed.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Sister Sá and I were invited to participate in the Men´s Priesthood session of Stake Conference, super legit! Along will all the other elders in our Zone. It was all about missionary work and really getting the members involved.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Stake conference Sunday was also ALL about missionary work. I love how the new brazil-area goal is to get the members to be activly involved in Inviting friends to church, and giving references to the missionaries. There was also a training of how to treat investigators when they get to church for the first time. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Something that caught my attention when Presdient Campos said, " if the Savior was only the earth, what would he be doing? Knocking doors, and teaching his gospel for the salvation of souls." If we want to be like Christ, we need to do as he would! Follow His footsteps and share the gospel! There are so many people passing trails, and they need more than anying the joy and hope of the gospel. Each of us has the sacred responsability to share the gospel in these last days.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Excited for Alan to be baptized sunday! He is the father of a recent convernt, Amanda. He has lived a rough life, espcially because his dad gave him drugs when he was only 7 years old. He has been addicted for over 25 years, but finally stopped for 4 years now. He is so excited to be baptized and start his new life following Christ! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Seeing lives change is increadible! One of the greatest privlages I have. I know that Christ lives! I know that my Savior walks at my side every step of the way. I love my Heavenly Father, and his Son.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I love you family!!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

My second easter on the mission, and it is wonderful.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Staring to get colder here, and what a blessing that is.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Sister Sá and I were showered with tonssssss of chocolate from the members here. 2 giant chocolate eggs with truffles inside, another huge egg filled with brigadeiro, box of chocolates, homemade cookies (more like crackers), etc.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Our easter lunch was churrasco (of course), rice, lasagna, ipem, and a buffet of salad! And for dessert chocolate cheese cake (dreamy), and sagu.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">What a special week this was, remembering the sacred ressurection of Christ! There as such a sweet spirit Sunday, one that touches our hearts in such a way that there is no way to deny it. One of my recent converts here, Adriana (member for a bit over a month) gave the lesson in Relif Society! She planned everything so well, and it was a beautful lesson about Christ. I am so proud of her and her progression. Seeing the fruits of our labor, and it feels so good!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I can´t begin to describe how greatful I am to have the restored gospel in my life! Above all, it brings so much joy to know that Jesus Christ loves us so much, that we are living in the days when his church is restored upon the earth. We have these rich blessings that were lossed for almost 2,000 years: Baptism, recieving the gift of the holy ghost, sealing of eternal families: the priestood!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I am coming to know and feel more and more the power of the book of mormon. This week we had an experience with Bete and Douglas. Douglas has been hearing our messages, but we felt as though he wasn´t opening his heart to accepting. We finally turned to the greatest resource of conversion: the book of mormon. We read with him Ether 12:27<</span><a href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">x-apple-data-detectors://1</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">>. After reading, he looked us into the eyes and said. "I want to read this book". There was such a strong spirit in the room, testifiying that it truly is the word of God.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Greatful for the knowlege that we have that Christ lives! And that one day we too will be resurected beings.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I know that Christ suffered for each of us. He knows what it is like to be alone, compeltely alone. And doesn´t want anyone to suffer as he did. Come unto Christ, and he will give you the strength to endure!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Com Amor,</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

Truly helps us awaken to a new spiritual freshness. It always makes the biggest difference when we prepare to listen to the words of Christ´s chosen leaders. There was so much that stood out to me, especially things that I need to change and do better! If we want to be called Christ´s disciples, we need to be worthy of this sacred title. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I love that conference makes us reflect on who we are now, and who we want to become. Like Elder Eyring said, "Those who do not see their weaknessess, do not progress". But it´s we don´t apply what we learned today, we will never change. Without action, whatever "potential" that exists with not have the power to begin.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">There was so much said about study of the scriptures. It is always said, but do we always do it with a full heart: The book of mormon is our armor, and the fount of spiritual growth, knowlege, and support. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">"The call for courage" is all around us, and more than ever we need to strengthen ourselves and others to be ready for the second coming. It is so true that if we are scared for the 2nd coming, there´s some repenting that needs to be done-means that we are not ready. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Delisia, a member reference, watched conference Satuday and said she just adored it. She suffered the death of her husband a year ago, and has been prepared to accept the gospel. Imagining her all in white, ready to enter into the temple in a bit more than a year! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister A. Santos returned home, and today I will revieve a new sister leader: Sister Sá! I hear she is increadible. Exciteddddd! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">The time is passing so fast, and I am racing against it using every drop of energy i got. It´s not everyday that I will have the opportunity to serve 24 hours a day. I know that my Redeemer lives. He knows each and everyone of us, and invites us to know him. I am so happy to have this knowlege. And to know that no matter how many times I fail, through Christ there is always another chance to change and be better.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Amo minha famìlia! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

She is the one who calls for us on the street, and wanted to be baptized as soon as possible. She has already decided that she wants to serve a mission, and is so determinted to change and be better than her past. Her baptism was increadible, and there was lost of people from the branch there to support her! Her mom isn´t a member, but ended up going to the baptism. Only issue was that her mom cried the whole time, infront of the chapel because she was upset that Melissa was getting baptized (they were catholic). Melissa looked her mom straight in the eyes and said" Would you rather me be baptized, to continue being the crazy person that I was? I am changing." This truly sunk into her moms heart, and let out a big smile and finally accepted the baptism. </span></div>

The most important thing is to keep trying- sometimes it takes several attempts before people find success. So don´t give us. Don´t loose faith. Keep your heart close to the Lord, AND He will give you the power of deliverance. He will make you free."</span></div>

<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">During the week so many amazing things happen, and I always have the biggest urge to share everything first with my family. I make sure to write alot of things down because I want all of you to have a part in my increadbile journey as Christ´s represenative. I love being around so many great families, but I can´t help but miss my own...know that I love you all with all my heart. I think and and pray for you always!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Anways, the highlight of this week was the visit from Elder Todd Christofferson! What a privlage to have an apostle of the Lord here in my mission! Our whole mission, Brasil Porto Alegre Norte, was also joined with the mission Brasil Porto Alegre Sul, and it seems like there was millions of missionaries. It was such a powerful, and testimony building experience for me. Everyone left the meeting saying, "that is exactly what I needed to hear". I know that God calls his servents to guide and help us return to his presence.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Here are some highlights: </span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-First of all the reunion was started by singing "Povos da Terra, Vinde Escutai". (Don´t remember the name in english...) but it made me feel so greatful to be apart of the grown of the restored gospel here in Brazil. It is so special as a missionary to offer the celestial kingdom to God´s children. I thought alot about how this missioary work is so sacred. He God trusts US to work in the sacred things of His kingdom. </span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Learn to do hard things. Look to build and strengthen your testimony. Become BETTER than yesterday. Don´t let the time pass by. Work harder than ever. Do all you can.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Dilligence= the ability to keep going. Because of the savior, we can go throughout life failing, and failing WITHOUT losing entusiasm. As a missionary we are rejected everyday, people who slam the doors in our face. But, we keep going with excitement and hope! The savior makes this possible.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Heavenly Father will give you what you are prepared to recieve</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-To know the Lords will, you need to be prepared to do it. "Thy will will be done" needs to be written in your heart. </span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Don´t have time to write the rest...so lets just say that this was part 1 of what Elder Christofferson had to say. Part 2 next week...haha</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Loving life. I can´t say it enough. Christ lives. He sees you. He loves you. And is greatful for your efforts! Make him proud!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Love,</span><br />

<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-This week Adriana And João were baptized!! Só alegria. Some of Adriana´s family went to the baptism, which was great so that they could feel the spirit. Her sister Jackie has been coming to church with her husband Sergio and daughter Diuly! We are finally going to set a date for their baptism today... getting this family rolling!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">We did a Family Night with them last Monday and they adored it. They especialy love how much the church is concerned with families. I have such a testimony of doing Family Night each and every week. It is an essencial part to strengthening home and family. It is a time to invite the spirit into your home, to open up and understand one another. It is also a time to realize how increadily blessed we are to have our families, and to recognize the good in each and every member of the family.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Remember that Satan is always trying to attack families. Don´t let him in. If you are each day reading the scriptures with your family, praying together, and having good communication, he will not be able to enter.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-One night Sister and I came home to our appartment, to......my clothes dangling in the trees!!! There was a big rain storm, and my clothes that were drying on hung up strings, flew out of the third-story window. My clothes also were in the entre of the apartment. oops. things happen, just need to laugh about it!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-During church some rascal came into the chapel and stole all of the umbrellas...the President of the Branch thinks it´s the same men who come in to beg for food.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Love this quote from Elder Holland, "Make no mistake about it. Whether you are a fulltime missionary or not, all Latter-Day Saints are called to take the message of the Lord Jesus Christ to 'all the world' (matt.24:14). If you would be the servents of God that you are called to be, you must be ready to do so"</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">It´s true. We all play a part in Heavenly Father purpose "to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man" (moses 1:39<</span><a href="x-apple-data-detectors://2" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">x-apple-data-detectors://2</a><span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">>) More happiness awaits you than you have ever experiencesd as you labor among His children.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Love you all!</span><br />

Looks like Campo Bom had the highest number of investigators at church in the month of February than any other area in the misson! And all thanks to the members here. Or job is to help the members succeed with their missionary work.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-We had another member reference: Ariane. She is soooooo ready for the restored gospel. We taught her the restoration and she was beaming. At the end of our first lesson with her, I shot out the baptismal invite. Carlos(member who gave us her referal) looked at me like I was crazy, and I he began to sweat and get all nervous, waiting for her response. hahha....funny that Ariane happily said YES i want to be baptized. Carols let out the biggest grin. We thanked him so much for trusting in us to teach his friend. Ariane went to church sunday, and we are preparing for yet another wedding and baptism in 30 days! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-This week I was reflecting a lot about my last area and how it was one of the harest 4 1/2 months for me. My companions and I were working so hard, praying with intensity, and doing all we could, but the baptisms didn´t come. I am coming to realize that at times, Heavenly Father gives us one challenge after another to test our faith. He wants to know if we truely depend on him, and trust in him more than we trust in ourselves. I bear my testimony that when we continue on through the rough times,. the fruits come in HIS time. The fruits are arriving, and I feel my Heavenly Fathers love more strongly each and everyday. To me, there is no feeling more special than the feeling that heavenly father is proud of you. I want to do all I possibly can to dedicate everything to him in these 18months. 24 hours each day is a blessing and a privlage to do the lords work and be an active instrument in his hands.

This week we had so many tender mercies from the Lord. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">First off, we have 13 investigators come to church....success!!! And 9 of them were member references. I love how the members here in Campo Bom are so excited about missionary work and are so willing to bring us to meet their friends. Because truely we are here to help the members accomplish their missionary work.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Trying to plan 4 weddings and lots of baptisms....</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-Tried playing the piano during sacrament meeting.....yeash. Not successful. But I will get better....</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">My new companion is Sister A.Santos from Paraiba! Like my last companion, is also on her last transfer of her mission.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister A. Santos and I also gave talks in sacrament meeting, which was so perfect because we were able to focus on helping the investigators feel the spirit, and also speak in simple terms that they could understand. I saw so many of them get emotional, and they truely love loved church!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I have such a testimony that when we do our part, when we are obedient, and truly depend on the Lord, miracles happen. Heavenly Father knows our needs, and he wants to help, it is us who has to give him the chance. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">In my talk I spoke a bit about the topic, "Am I good enough, will i make it:" At times in our lives, we doubt if we are sufficient. But though the atonement of Jesus Christ, the answer will always be YES, we are good enough. And we will make it!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">We need to have more positive attitudes, and replace our fear with faith and trust in the Lord. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">We have amazing investigators!!! wish I could talk more about them, but the time as gone!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I know that this missionary work is urgent, and each of us play a part in the work. It is a work of joy, love, and feeling a bit of what the savior went through. Love it.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Love you all!!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">And yes it was my birthday week. The Campo Bom branch planned a suprise birthday party for me with cake, balloons, pizza, and other goodies! Such a special day, and I am so greatful for all the people who made my 20th so markable. It was even greater to see some of our investigators there as well!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">This week was the last week of Sister Soares on the mission, and the members all had a get to week to give thanks for her service. There were some things said that truely touched my heart. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Jackson who is a recent convert of 2 years who married a member (he was a testimony of jehova) said, "I never served a mission, so I don´t know a lot about what the missionaries go though, but I image that it is not easy and that you have a lot of trials. But coming from a recent convert, let me tell you that what you are passing through is all worth it. My life is forever blessed and changed because of the missionaries. I could not thank you enough."</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Adriana (who will be baptized with her husband after the civil wedding <a dir="ltr" href="x-apple-data-detectors://0" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);" x-apple-data-detectors-result="0" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors="true">on March 10th</a>) said, "My greatest dream is that my two daughters serve missions, and become like you both. Just as I know that this is the true restored gospel of Jesus Christ on the earth, I know that you restored my family. My family has changed immensly and I am eternally greatful." </span></div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I have come to realize that a single choice can change everything. And my choice to serve a mission has forever changed my life. I LOVE being a missionary and it is my greatest honnor to represent my Savior and Redeemer. Honestly this has been the hardest, but most increadible experience that I have ever had. It is hard to describe in words how I feel, and how greatful I am to be here in Brazil. Helping Gods children come unto Christ, and understand the sacrifice that the Savior made has made such a influence in my life. It is a tender opportunity to help people learn of the perfect plan of our Heavenly Father and feel his sincere love. I know that Christ lives, and his restored earth is on the earth today. I am a living witness of this! </span></div>

We truely saw the tender mercies of the Lord, and his hand blessing our lives and the lives of our investigators. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">There was a huge complication with the Catório (civil in english? não sei) but Adreana and João were married in the church! Because the paper work woun´t be ready for about 20 more days, there weren´t able to get baptized with their daughters. But the wedding was so special, and there were so many investigators that attended1 Two of Adrianas sisters told us that they too wanted to go to church and get married! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Arianas mother is so evangelic (i´m talking long stangily hair to her knees), but she went to the wedding, baptism, and church to see the confirmation! she said that she felt so much peace in the church, in comparision to her church that "puts her to sleep" haaha</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Highlight was their daughters Maria luiza and Emily were able to be baptized! What a special day. they were glowing. The young women of our branch each bore their testimonies at the baptis mand say a hymn. What a spiritual baptism!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Here are some things that stood out to me this week:</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-repentance is to have faith in christ and DEPEND on him. This week we taught a girl named amanda, who sufferes from depression. It was such a powerful lesson teaching her about how through christ she could be healed. we gave he a vision of her her life could be after the repentance process. How she could be completely pure, happy and clean. We made it clear that Heavenly Father will never abandon her, and how he hopes that she comes unto him to be forgiven. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">-A person who seeks to do things the easy way, becomes weak. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Look for ways to grow! challenge yourself! you are stronger than you think you are.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I have learned so much about being positive! to recognize my blessings, and understand how increadible blessed i am! Rmember that each day is a great day if you make it one. Be happy, life is to be lived and enjoyed! not "to be supported".</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I love my savior! I love the atonement and the privilage that we have to come unto christ and be healed and made clean! everyone needs to know this joy and hope!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Love,</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah </span><br />

<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Highlights of this week:</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">I just love member references! Irmão Jairo e Irmã Ivanir brought us to</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">a house of their friends and it was increadible! Jessica, Floravante,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">and Serlie are so interested in the church. Jessica even got super</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">emotional when we talked about the first vision. The next time we went</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">there to visit them they had a Churrasco ready to serve haha! And</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">these people truly share everything they have. So poor, yet willing to</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">give to others.</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">The wedding of Adriana and João is coming along! This weekend will be</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">so special. Wedding on Friday, Baptism Saturday and Confirmation</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">sunday!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">Adriana is inviting lots of members of her family, and it will be</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">great for them to get to know the church and have the opportunity to</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">feel the spirit!</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-Brasilians love Peanutbutter and jelly sandwhiches</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">-learning how to Sombaaaaaaa</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">The Lord truly is blessing us here in Campo Bom! Our ward even had a</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">meeting with all the leaders just about missionary work. The members</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">are stepping up their game and finally getting involved with the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">lord´s urgent work.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">A phrase that helped me this week:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">"The greatest miracle wasn´t when Moses parted the Red Sea. Wasn´t</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">when Noah built the Arc. The Greatest miracle happens when we humbly</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">approach our Heavenly Father in prayer, fervently plead to be</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">forgiven, and then are cleansed of these sings through the atoning</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">sacrifice of our Savior"</span><br />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">I love being a missionary! I love working with and helping the Lord's</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 12px;">children. Truly increadible.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Man does time just run away! But here are some highlights of this week:<br /><br />Typical lunch here in brazil: Pasta, rice, potatoe salad, and chicken.<br />yum...Everyday<br /><br />This week I ate watermelon peel. (a dessert they make with a load of sugar<br />water)<br /><br />It is so hot the Book of Mormon cover melts on my clothes! now I have a lot<br />of pretty blue stains ;)<br /><br />Our greatest tool against Satan is our AGENCY. We are the ones who make our own choices, he can´t do that for us.<br /><br />I was able to use the little sign language that I learned here on the mission!<br />Talked to a deaf man, and he was so thrilled that i knew how to talk a bit<br />with him!<br /><br />This week was a week of tests. It seemed like just about everything was<br />going wrong. Here is an idea: black beans spilt all over my skirt,<br />umblella broke, my companion got gum all over the top of her shoes, and<br />when she tried rubbing it off on a pole, she got yellow paint all over her,<br />a nice member offered us a ride and her car broke down in the middle of<br />nowhere, umbrella broke, walking 14 miles in 1 day, lost.<br /></span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"></span><br />
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">It felt like literally everything was planned to be horrible! One day we<br />even said a prayer to ask for help for our day to be better, ended the<br />prayer, and I opened up my selter water to have it expload all over our<br />lunch.<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Let´s just say it was a week of trailing our faith. Thankful that Sister<br />and I didn´t let it get to us. We continued on, and even made a point of<br />laughing about all that was going on.<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">We made the choice to be happy with what was happening, instead of<br />being distraught. </span></div>

This week it really hit me that as a missionary, I am fullfilling scripture: that the gospel may be preached to every tounge. serving a mission truely is the greatest honor and blessing that i could recieve!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">On Friday we had 2 sisters from Gramado here with us,and we had a tender experience with a member, Regane. During Regane´s prayer to bless the food, she just cried and cried. When the prayer ended we all worrily asked what happened, and she sweetly said: "what a blessing to have 4 represenatives of christ, 4 angels in my home. The spirit is too strong, i cant hold back the tears". I just love the brasilian people! Honestly they are the cutest. They treat the missionaries as if christ really is in the walls of their homes. they are so sincere and truely willing to serve the lord in everyway they can.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Our investigators are progressing greatly! we have one family who was so impressed by the restoration. The mom has 8 kids (all above the age of 18) and she went about telling all her kids, "did you know that Christ´s church was taken from the earth? Did you know that it returned when joseph smith was called a prophet??" She understood that the restoration of the gospel of jesus Christ really is the biggest notice that there is on the earth, and she has such a desire to share this news with everyone!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Recently I have also been thinking a lot about the phrase "Raise the Bar to identify change". Each of us have such a divine potential, and at times we need to push out selves a little harder. Let the Lord make a change in you, and be willing to do whatever he asks. Only HE knows what we need to do in order to return to His presence. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I have such a testimony that I am here in Brasil for a reason. I know that the Lord sends us to the exact place at the exact time. A life long of happiness of other people starts with the missionaries. What an increadible responsabilty that I have to bring happiness to the people here in Brasil! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Love you all!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br />

My companion is Sister Soares from Brasilia! What is funny is that she was my first sister leader when I arrived here, and now we are companions! This is her last transfer on the mission, so we are working like dogs to track down all the people that are being prepared by the Lord. Right now we are working with a family that is just increadible. They have 2 daughters who are loving Young womens. This was the third week that they have been at church. We are planning a beautiful wedding for them, and each member willl be pitching in to help out! They are so excited to be baptized, and are loving the book of mormon. They are noticiting such a huge difference in their family, and are already strengthening their testimonies. The mom, Adreana, said that if it wasnt for the marriage issue, she would have already been baptized weeks ago!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Lets just say that I am not used to working in a big city! This place is enormous and we have so many people to get to know. Here is campo bom it is still a branch, but it will be a ward in no time!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I am loving being a represenative of christ. I am learning so much, and truely coming to know who I can become. I know that if we learn to trust in the lord, and work with all our might, the blessings of the heavens will shower upon us. Remember that the greatest desire of our heavenly father is our eternal happiness! Be happy, even in the harest of times. Remember that you are never alone, and that the savior is ready to help us along. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I have seen so many people suffering, hopeless, and lost. I know that with the restored gospel in our lives we understand that their is meaning to live! We understand the sacrifice that christ did for us. We come to love others, and look to serve those who are in need.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">My mission is the biggest blessing that I could ever recieve. I love being an instrument in the Lords hand to accomplish his work and glory here in the earth. I love it more than words can describe!!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Love,</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Sister Hannah</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Addendum to Hannah's letter. She told us last week that she was made a Sister Leader. Since it is relatively newly created position for the Sisters, I asked Hannah what are her new responsibilities. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">This was her reply: </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">There are only 10 sister leaders in the whole mission. So each week my companion and I do splits or divisions with other sisters to see how they are planning, teaching, obeying he mission rules, etc. We also get their numers each week to see how many lessons they are doing etc. It is really great! I am getting to help others and I also learn alot from the other sisters as well! It is a big responsabiliity, but I am loving the opportunity! </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">So each week either we visit the area of other sisters, or they come here to Campo bom. It is pretty cool!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">i guess you could call it like a "zone leader" because we also get the chance to give training to the whole zone on tuesdays. We also go to the training with all the zone leaders to hear presidente campos and the assistants!</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">We are so proud of Hannah. She is amazing.</span>Sister Hannah- Porto Alegre Northhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02031016253981626343noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237798801541458221.post-16505529510430321132017-01-09T15:30:00.001-08:002017-01-09T15:30:16.398-08:00January 9, 2017- Sister Leader<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hey Family!!<br /><br />Wow the time passes so fast and I have no time to write. But looks like I am finally being transfered from Zona Gramado.....wow. Almost 11 months in this zone it will be strange to leave. I am greatful for my new calling as a Sister Leader! I will be serving in the hottest part of the mission, where it reaches 50 degrees C. (side note, last time I was there doing divisions my shoes melted on the bottom.....) But I couldn´t be more excited to serve in Campo Bom! The field is white and ready to harvest there!<br /><br />This week was increadble and a week full of miracles. We met a family with 12 kids (10 are adopted). The best part is the Mom and the 4 oldest kids are already members of the church! They were baptized in another part of brazil but when they moved they became inactive. Miracle that we found them;<br /><br />The blessings and fruits of our hard work here in Nova Petroplis are finally coming! Glad that I will be leaving Sister Fogo and her new companion with great investigatos and soon-to be-baptisms! <br /><br />7 amazing investigators went to church, and they are all increadible and ready to be baptized! Life is amazing here in Nova Petroplolis, but I am excited to start a new journey!!!<br /><br />love you all,<br /><br />sister Hannah<br /><br />Sister Hannah- Porto Alegre Northhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02031016253981626343noreply@blogger.com0
