Elder: " sisters, you have an investigator here.... shes kneeling in the chapel praying"

Oh our week.

We had many little miracles this week. We contacted lots of really promising people. These are the elect, weve finally found them! unfortunatly they can only accept us one a month starting in august.... but we dont take no for an answer. The ward is seeing inactives come to church and I think their is an overall improvement with the members. And one little miracle that made me so happy happened yesterday. We were walking to an appt and I was thining about how I missed music when across a crowded ave I distinctly heard taylor swift. i ran across the street and on the tv in a bar was a taylor swift music video. It was a tender mercy.

Its cold in Brasil! Like really cold! I didnt bring the right clothes for this. And when you have only one coat and that coat gets dirty and you have to hang dry it and its cold so it doesnt dry you stay cold because you cant use said coat. BUT this is in no way a complaint. I plead for it to STAY cold. Because the heat is terrible.

I finally mastered making chocolate chip cookies in brazil. And boy am I proud!

There re just so many things that happen every day that i always think "oh I need to write about this!" but then I cant remeber them. Things are good here in Jardim Mirna. Please keep praying for people to open their hearts to change. I am one transfer down and we are still trying to contact the people who really want to change. But they have to be here right?

The church is true. I know that this is the only true church. I know that other churchs have the ability to bring happiness into lives but not everlatsing happiness. Not eternal peace and joy. I know this because I know that I am not terminally mentally ill and there is no way I would leave everyone behind to struggle with a language and walk up and down and up and down hills all days unless this was the truth.

Joseph Smith saw god the father and jesus christ. He didnt create a church. He restored is through the power of god. i know that we all have the potential to live in the highest degree with our father in heaven, But it will take hard work. So for all my lovely friends and family who already know this- share it with others, talk to other and pray for others. If you dont know this.. pray about it. Read the Book of Mormon. If its false then all of this is a lie and if its true than all of this is true. I know its true and I love you all!

so thats my 2 cents for the week.

I love you!
love kensie
