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!!!!!
