Amial + Members = Gold

This week was super sweet!! We've been finding some amazing people to teach and working with the members like crazy! They are amazing!! We were able to get around 30 references from them this past week and the majority of the references live in our area!! And pois, meeting with members usually includes food so that was a big blessing! 

Okay also our area is freaking big sooo we had to take a train yesterday for like 30 minutes to get to a member's house and because it was Sunday, the schedule was super weird and we got stuck waiting in the train station but it was super pretty so.. pics below!

We got this reference from a member in Matosinhos for this lady and her mom that live a road down from us so we went over there and taught them the first lesson and invited them to be baptized! The daughter said yes! Her name is Helena. She has some pretty bad depression, partially because of her mom. Her mom has some pretty big health problems and is super clingy to her so she got depressed from staying indoors all the time. But she really wants to change around her life!! Super excited to help her!

Something that I've really learned here on the mission is that with every area, companion, and transfer, there is something specific that the Lord wants me to learn. I'm so grateful that He knows me so well and knows what I need. The Lord molds us into what He wants us to be and makes us into a beautiful masterpiece by the end of it. I still haven't gotten there yet.. But one day, I know I will!! And that leads me into this sweet video of the week!! 

Love you all!!
