Thank you so much for the E mail!
I love hearing about everyone every week! Sounds like you all had a
blast going to Spokane and getting out of the house a bit. Was it the
big shopping trip? How is Dad doing? I will definitely pray for him
everyday to get better. You have to tell him to stay away from that
kryptonite. It doesn't help with superman. :)
I got Danielle's letter this last week! I jumped for joy when I got
the letter! Danielle has a talent writing letters! Every word that she
writes, I can imagine her saying. I got it together with moms letter!
But this week was awesome! We had a couple changes here in our
mission. We had some missionaries transferred out of an area and so now
we are looking over two areas! This last Sunday was crazy!!! And it just
so happens that the church meeting are at the same time! So our Sunday
was full of running back and forth, directing people to their classes,
getting everyone a member friend. But we were very surprised this week.
We helped an old woman carry her sacks to her house on night and we
shared a litte message with her. She listened and we said bye. We
returned to talk with her more later in the week and invited her to go
to church.(2 weeks ago) We waited Sunday... she didn't show. So we went
to see what happened. We arrived and she came to us begging
forgiveness.. but Saturday night she fell and broke her arm and was in
the hospital Sunday. But we continued ti teach her this week and while
we were walking to church on Sunday we found her on our way. All ready
with the pamphlets that we gave to her. She had the biggest smile on her
face! She loved the church and She reminds me a lot of Grandma Miskho.
Because she is the happiest person alive. With her broken arm and all,
she couldn't be happier.
I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints is the
true church. I know that Joseph Smith and Emma Smith did so much to
establish the church that we have today. I know that The Holy Ghost is
Heavenly Fathers messenger to testify and teach us what we should do. I
know that Faith can save lives, and make miracles.

Hello Everyone!
That is awesome that everyone got home safe and that dad took care
of everyone! Even cooking!!! That is something I have been practicing a
lot of. I see lots of husbands that pretty much starve to death here
because they have to wait for their wives to make something. I think
that is ridiculous! So Elder Young and I are learning to make lots of
Brazilian food! I cant blame you mom.... just looking at the pictures of
Kylie.... I wouldn't want to leave either! She is SO Adorable! The
pictures you sent me of her smiling!!!!!! oh man!!! It is super Cute!!
Sounds like everyone is doing great! Danielle as the big Senior,
taking fun classes, and Trevor running track. P.S. Danielle did you get
my letter yet? I want to make sure it didn't get lost. :)
This week was very very special! We meet a woman named Fran three
weeks ago. We have been teaching here and I don't think I have ever
taught someone that has received so many answers to her prayers and so
many dreams! We had been praying about when her baptism should be and we
felt really good about the 1st of September. We asked her to pray to
see if she should be baptised on the 1st of September and she went and
prayed that night, and the next day she said.... My baptism will be on
the 1st of September! It was a very spiritual meeting. I played a
special musical number on the guitar, with one other member and another
member sang as well. IT is a BEAUTIFUL SONG! Num Queto Bosque. You
should look it up. But everyone was crying in the meeting and the spirit
was very strong. Fran told us thanks for changing her life in just
three weeks. She said she would never forget what we had done and how
she felt. I love when things like that happen. The next day was fast
Sunday and so we had testimony meeting as well! I leaned over to ask
Elder Young when he wanted to bare his testimony..... we looked up and
we saw Fran walking up to the pulpit!!!!!!!!! She went up just ten min
after being confirmed a member of the church and gave her Testimony in
front to everyone! It was very very special! A very pure testimony!
Things like this make our work, and sacrifice worth it.
I know that this church is true and I know that Conversion really
happens when we open our hearts and let the Hold Ghost into our hearts.
Also this week I grabbed a bunch of Conference talks from lds.org
and I have been listening to them everyday, while getting ready and it
has really lifted my week as well! I love the words of the prophet and
his apostles.

Ola minha familia!!!!!
It is awesome to hear how good everyone is doing! Sounds like Kylie
is still the most beautiful thing on the earth and that she is getting
lots of love! It is good that she is getting to hear dads Bolivian song
too! I don't know if I ever said anything but one day I started singing
that famous song that dad always sang for one of my companions. I don't
know how many time you sang that to me day but 20 years later I still
remember it! Vive me patria Bolivia!!!!!!!!! It is good I know that so I
can sing it to my kids one day, because I think the national anthem of
Brasil is more of a wake up song! haha
This week was very very special. We were able to see a miracle
happen here in Brasil. Over the last couple of weeks I have been talking
about a family that we have been working with. Where the parents were
sealed in the temple but they fell away form the church fifteen years
ago. This last Saturday we were able to see the father, who is now
worthy, baptize his two children. They were then confirmed on Sunday by
the father and we were able to participate in the confirmation. But we
went to their house after and this is when the touching part happened.
The Mother of this family (Sandra) she said the closing prayer and she
Told our Heavenly Father how she was so grateful for the two angels that
were sitting at her side. And that because of them her family is saved.
I couldn't help but to cry. It is crazy what miracles happen here on
the mission. She then told us that she would never ever forget Elder
Young and Elder Heath ha It is such a blessing to be Our Heavenly
Fathers hands here on earth and to have the opportunity to find all of
the people that are lost, and bring them the fullness of the Gospel.
I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the
true church, e eu sei que Joseph Smith restarou a Igreja juntos com o
Sacerdocio do Pai Celectial. I know that Families can be sealed for
eternity, and that we will be together with Our Savior again. Eu sei que
a obra do missionario é muito importante ajudar todos os Filhos do Pai
Celectial.
Eu Amo voces muito!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
