Wow. This week has been a week of revelation and miracles.
I am so grateful to be a missionary at this time in these last days.
How often do we think of the name of the church?
The church of JESUS CHRIST of latter day saints.
Which is translated a little differently in Portuguese.
A igreja de Jesus Cristo dos santos dos últimos dias.
(the church of Jesus Crist of the saints of the last days)
I´ve been thinking a lot about this in the last few days. Really. We are not just the saints of the latter days. This is fancy.
These are the LAST days. Prophecies from the Bible, the Book of Mormon, and latter day prophets are being fulfilled.
and Christ will be here SOON.
We don´t know the day. We don´t know the time. But he´s coming!
The fact that this thought scares a lot of people fills me with sadness.
His coming is for joy. And then we can have eternal life.
But we get to choose. Immortality alone. or Immortality and eternal life!
All of us will be resurrected. no matter what we choose. All of us will have perfect bodies that live FOREVER.
Whether we live with God and Christ again and with our families for eternity is our choice.
Small moments of pain and trial here on the earth are nothing compared to the joy we can feel in the eternities if we can just stay strong.
This is why I am here serving a mission. We are preparing the way.
We are sharing the restored gospel of Jesus Christ to every person who will choose to hear and accept.
The same gospel that Christ organized on the church when he lived on it.
There are not one hundred different paths that lead to eternal life. The path to God is straight and narrow.
God is loving. He wants his children to know this path. To return!
Prayer is a blessing. God wants to hear from his children. And he will answer our questions.
This week I have really seen how God is a God of miracles.
But I really need to have faith and BELIEVE that miracles can happen for me to see them.
This has been the theme for this past week:
´For behold, I am God; and I am a God of miracles;
and I will show unto the world that I am the same yesterday, today and forever;
and I work not among the children of men save it be according to their faith.´
Amo vocês! T´chão!

I´ve been to the temple in São Paulo. but not here in
Campinas because my area isn´t close enough.
3 areas in our mission can go to the temple on p-day. if your in that area you can go! if not then you can´t. usually every one serves in one of those areas during their missions.
But the São Paulo temple was beautiful! and it´s amazing because it´s exactly the same as in the states.
The church is true. God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. And so are his temples. it´s amazing mom!
This work is truly the work of God. And the temples are the key! Without temples we can´t have eternal glory!
ahhhh. I love it! I have felt the spirit so strong this week! I KNOW that something miraculous is about to happen on the earth.
I can feel it. Christ is coming so soon and prophecies are being fulfilled!
