Dear Family,
This week went super well, especially Saturday.
Saturday morning started off with a stake activity with the
members of the stake and the missionaries, we all went to this park and handed
out Book of Mormons to the people there.
Many people were receptive, like we handed out 200 Book of Mormons
in about an hour! we met lots of people that were interested and we taught
many, it was a success!
After the activity we all ate a barbecue with the bishop of
the ward and then went to the chapel to watch the first session of conference.
Conference was amazing!
I loved Elder Uchtdorf’s talk on those that serve God and
love Him with see wonderful things in life and that God will use you if you are
willing. The talk by Dallin H. Oaks was also so good I like what he said about
families and exaltation is a family matter and salvation is a personal matter
and how we should choose the Lords way and not the worlds. D Todd Christofferson
gave such a good talk also about the ordinance of the sacrament and bring the
Savior into our life and be one. After the first session of conference we had
our baptism! we baptized the first counselor´s mother and it was such an
amazing baptism with over 50 people attending it. The spirit really did guide
us and we only fulfilled what was said. After the baptism we had the second
session which was also such a great session.
This week was great, conference was great, I loved the two
sessions on Sunday also and it’s hard to choose a favorite talk, Callister’s
talk had me dying because it made all the critics of the Book of Mormon look
dumb and Neil L. Anderson’s talk was very touching to hear the words of Elder
Hails and our Prophet Thomas S. Monson.
Sounds like everyone is doing well. I’m glad to hear that Conner
is active in developing talents, which is an important part of life I think,
even if it is guitar or playing football, it’s all good stuff.
It’s crazy that I’m about to make on year, today a member is
going to through a barbecue for me and my companion from the MTC ha-ha, so that
will be fun.
Miss, you guys, hope you all enjoyed conference.
Até Mais,
Elder Toma
