WEEK 23: November 19, 2018 "FELIZ NATAL"

Flower matching sweater.... pic needed.

HEY GENTE!!!

This week was full of miracles!!!!

We had a lot of divisions because the STL's finally made it to our area!! It is like 4 hours away haha..... I got to work a lot in the area with other Sisters. That was awesome!!

This week we found a family of miracles!!!! Our area is super far away from where the church meetings are held and so it is super hard to take people to church. But we found a family that even though they live super humbly, THEY HAVE A CAR!!!!!! And they accepted dates for baptism!!! So that was a miracle!!!!

We also had a few big meetings with our whole district. Our district gets along super well. So that is awesome. I am so happy to be in this district. We were all sad to be leaving so we had one big hurray today at Burger King!!!

BK with the district!!!! 

Otherwise I am still speaking Portuguese, still knocking on doors, still eating beans and rice, still walking until I have giant blisters under my feet and still dying of a heat stroke, but most importantly I am so happy to be here and to be a missionary. This is the best work.

This week I want to challenge you all to read Ether 12! I challenged a less active to read it and she came back to talk to me and told me that it was an answer to prayer for her! AND SHE CAME TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY BECAUSE OF THIS CHAPTER OF SCRIPTURE AND SHE HAS A MEETING WITH THE BISHOP TO GET A TEMPLE RECOMMEND BECAUSE OF THIS CHAPTER! So read it. I love it.

Ate mais!!!

Com amor,
Sister Hammond

Feliz natal, feliz navidad, merry Christmas!
