LAST WEEK AT THE MTC!!

I'm sorry but I have to go right now--this will be short---I gave a Book of Mormon to a woman that works here and set up a time to meet with her. I took my friend, Elder Lucas Pinto Guerdes from the Rangers Soccer team and his companion Elder Guerdes and we met with two of the women working here and shared the first vision--the Spirit was there--I was able to understand about 80%---it was really good---the sisters wanted to know where they could go to church and promised to read 3 Nephi Capitulo onze!! Right now--our last p-day I'm going with my companion over to Mr. Cheney's to eat all of those cookies that you paid for me to get Mother---PARTY!!--Thanks a bunch--those cookies--are soooooo delicious. Sorry, I didn't have a chance to read anyone's e-mail yet but I will later on--don't worry. Our last visit to the MTC was fantastic. Proselyting--our first "official" proselyting was on Monday for about two and a half hours--the coolest part was after we walked up this super tall hill and I started walking really fast so that we could catch up to a young boy that was walking his dog--it looked like a black lab to me. His name was Leonardo and probably was only 9 or 10--about your age James! We talked to him about his life, his awesome dog--which indeed was a lab--and he had a super awesome name for it--but I don't remember what it was. Anyways--sorry this is bad English--going fast--we told him about the WARS in the BOM because as we all know little boys love war and being a hero and working hard, being tough, etc. We told him to take the book home and read it with his mother and we also gave him a pamphlet! I told him that I have five younger brothers and that we love to read the BOM every day and that I know that it can help him to learn about Jesus Christ and return to live with God. I have a lot of others stories---OH--especially when we meet William on the street AGAIN. Things don't happen by coincidence. Brothers!!---make sure you read the BOM every day so that what I told Leonardo can really be true!! Oh and we met a guy that didn't believe in Christ, God, nothing. Then when we asked him if we could give him a Bible or a Book of Mormon he said that he had already read it---HAH! Yea right. A lot of Brasilians here like to pull that card. I told him--Oh really! Okay, well then you already know that Jesus Christ visited the America's and we ended up sharing a message, bearing testimony and giving him a BOM anyways and he was reading it when we left so---we'll see. PLANT THE SEED! LOVE YOU ALL! I will try to send some letters by Mr. Cheney's--mother you can discontinue Mr. Cheney's now that I'm leaving---make sure you go online and discontinue--otherwise they will automatically charge you. Talk to you later. The church is true. Don't be afraid to listen to the Spirit--write the promptings down and then before you go to bed--look and see if you accomplished them all!! Today was the last time at the Sao Paulo temple---IT WAS AWESOME!! I learned a lot about the symbolism and had a great conversation with Heavenly Father in the Celestial Room. Remember Prayer is when you talk to God and his response is Revelation---we literally converse with God---keep praying and look at what is most important. Don't forget to have fun, smile and enjoy life--help others do more than just endure---be joyful!! Tchau familia!! Thanks for the love and letters---they strengthen me soo much. Love you all!
