Oii boa tarde tudo!!! I can not believe that I am writing my last email as a full-time missionary! The time passes so quickly (whether you are a missionary or not), so remember to enjoy every moment!! I am so grateful for the past 17.5 months because I have become a completely different person. I learned what it means to lose myself in the service of my God, and although I'm still far from perfect, I know that with Christ, I can continue improving every day!!! I gained a greater understanding of the Atonement of Jesus Christ, that He suffered not only for my sins, but also my shortcomings and weaknesses and failures so that He can help me change and become better when I humble ask for His help. I know that Christ is the solution to every one of my struggles, and I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to dedicate 100% of my time and energy to helping others gain this same understanding!! Words cannot explain the gratitude I have for every moment of my mission - from almost peeing my pants from laughing too hard to hearing people pray for the first time to crying next to my bed during my nighttime prayers to the days my cheeks hurt from smiling all day!!! I have a testimony that this is the gospel of Jesus Christ and that His Church is restored here on the earth, and that following His teaching and participating in covenants with His is the only way to have eternal joy and peace!!!!!

I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARYYYYY
words can not explain the gratitude i have for my opportunity to be a missionary!!! there are hard day, times when people don~t answer our phone calls or the door or simply say that they are not interested in talking to us, but there are also family home evenings with our potential members, learning how to run a family home evening and seeing their eyes glowing with the light of christ and watching their testimonies grow and my heart just wants to explode because i am so excited!!!!!!!!

God answers prayers!!!
The work is accelerating!!! sorry these past few weeks i haven~t talked a ton about our members in potencial, but they are all progressing and Saturday we actually had 2 baptisms!!!! With all the craziness these last 2 weeks we weren~t able to make a zoom link, but it was so special to see Ramilly and Alex make covenants with the Lord and start their personal conversion!!! Ramilly is a 9 year granddaughter of a returning member, and her heart is golden. Oh my goodness, whenever we went to her house she would run up to us and say "Sisters!!" So cute <33 Alex has been progressing the last few weeks, and then 2 weeks ago a member called us and said that his wife had visited Alex's stepmom (a returning member) and Alex said that he was getting ready to be baptized!!! We immediately called Alex and he was like "yeah I got an answer to my prayer and I want to be baptized, what day is it again?" MIRACLES!!!!! But also not a huge miracle, simply the Spirit working and the Lord doing His work ;)
