One more week goes by on the mission. This week was the 11th week of training for Elder Miranda so he was the senior companion and I got to be a little more relaxed. It all went well and he showed that he knows how to do everything. We planned really well, but lots of appointments fell through and so this week was more tracting in the streets and knocking on doors. We didn't get to enter many houses this week but we have a lot of names to contact.
This Friday we had an activity at the church about our savior Jesus Christ. It was the same activity that we did in Varginha 7 months ago and it worked equally as well here. We talked about a friend that has helped us through some trials in life and how because of him we got through it. However the catch is that we didn't say who the friend was. After we talked we had people write down their biggest challenge right now and then we passed a slide show with pictures of Christ and then a short video from the church. It was a spiritual activity and it went really well.
This week we learned that Josimar, the man we baptized last week, went to to Brasilia for December so we aren't able to have much contact with him. But he is really excited still and when he gets back we will go there. Sadly we had to cut Eduardo because he hasn't been progressing so that wasn't that great, but we are after new investigators. This Sunday was fast Sunday and their were lots of powerful testimonies shared. Tiago, a soon-to-be missionary bore his last testimony before he is off to Chile! He cried a little in front but bore a powerful testimony. I love this ward.
Transfers are next week and we will see if I stay here for Christmas or if I will be off to another area, but whatever happens I will be happy.
Until next week!
-Elder Smith
