Esta Semana

Thanks for all the Emails, it's fantastic to hear from everybody.

I can tell you I will sleep a lot this pday, Elder Ashby and I are pretty beat. This week we've been filling our planners to the brim. There is literally not an empty space on there (I'll have to send a pic).

Last P-day we actually went and did something instead of sleeping the day away! (Which is probably why we've been so tired all week haha) We went to parque do Sabia. It's a lake/park that has some cool animals. We almost went to the aquarium but Elder Hayden told us it looks like the place you buy fish in Wallmart.
We walked around a bit, drank coconuts, ate mangos, and even saw a few monkeys! I took WAY more pictures of the monkeys than anything else. We almost fed them from our hands but decided it would be better to stay here in the mission than go home with some weird virus from a monkey bite.

We have a bunch of people that will come to church, but they mainly have one of two obstacles: Word of Wisdom, and getting Married!
Needless to say We will be teaching some powerful spirit-filled law of chastity lessons.

Where's the foto of your costume mom? and dad? haha.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! You can repeat them this next week too! Happy happy birthday for Jess and Tanner. Mom only needs to make two cakes in November now. haha.

So I've been trying to work a lot more with the members. We've taught a lot of incomplete families and people that have stopped coming to church. Not any success YET. We've had a couple of lessons where we are trying to rescue somebody, but we end up leaving the house a bit depressed. It is so so important to listen to the councils of our prophets about when we have doubts, I won't get into details.

One of these lessons was really great, I was talking with Elder Ashby after and we had both felt the reason that that person had left the church, it was something so very very quiet from the spirit, but we both had felt it. In that lesson I opened my scriptures to leave a part for her to read, I looked at Elder Ashby and he had already opened to the exact verse that I was going to leave. Very spiritual and I knew in that moment that we were teaching what the Lord wanted.

Have a fantastic week, send more pics!
Love
Elder Wallace
