I

I am so happy! I loved seeing the pictures of Brielle and she is so cute! Also Braelyn is so cute too! I love them both so much! Its so cool that she was born on April 3rd! I think that is just a cool day to be born. But that is awesome that everything went well and Braelyn is still very loved haha. But I am also glad that you went to Uncle Steves birthday party. Looks like it was crazy!! Hahahaha. But i am just filled with joy to see my new niece haha. and my other niece! This week was also pretty good for us too! Just filled with new experiences! oh and chris will have fun at prom ha. 

This week we didnt have much luck with Emerson, Betania, or Renato. It was very difficult and really annoying because they were all traveling. And so it was our job to find new people to teach! Luckily the lord blessed us so much! This week we were able to teach a man and his son. Juvenal and Maxsuel! It was super cool and the lesson about the restoration was super powerful. At the end of the lesson, we both felt that we needed to invite them to be baptized and so I was able to invite them and they both accepted! Although they didnt come to church on sunday, we are going to work with them this week. Another cool experience is the one we had yesterday! Yesterday we were able to teach a family of 14 people. They were five small families all together and we were able to teach them with Epaminondas! The lesson was crazy and i felt like the elders of old time when they basicaly preached high up on a stand. But i was able to bare my testimony with authority and my companion Elder Alves did the same thing. They belong to a church that is very different than ours but we are going to visit them again this week and try to teach by the spirit again. I just love being able to teach these people even if the more part of them dont want to hear us because they think we are strange. I just love testifying about the book of mormon and the power that it has in all of our lives. Wow i was able to bare my testimony in sacrament meeting too about the book of mormon and i told every one of them, If you all knew what is really inside this book, you would read it every day and never miss one day of reading. It is true. The book of mormon has that kind of power in our lives. I love it and I know the book of mormon is true. I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet of god and that Russell M Nelson is a prophet of god. I can never deny that!! I love this gospel so much and I invite all of you to gain a testimony of these things for yourselfs! Also this guy made a wood carving of the fellowship brochure for me! Lord of the rings rocks! haha. 

Love you all!
