Montenegro

Week #48

Hello Everybody!

I am now in the the city of Montenegro. I don't really understand the name. There aren't really mountains here, just big hills in the middle of the city. I like it here. It's not hot, it's getting a little bit colder and the rain is incredible. Lots of rain. Tons of rain. Rain and more rain. Winter in the south of Brazil should be fun.

Great, not a whole lot to say this week. I'm lost in another city, but my companion and I have already met. Elder Souza is from Fortaleza and we lived in the same house in Osório a few transfers ago. He's a lot more friendly than I am with members and investigators. 

Montenegro is a little bit more difficult than Osório. The people are a little more closed off and don't really like to accept us. In Osório usually every few houses we could teach somebody. Here, 20 houses might yield 2 lessons and the people don't really want to listen, but we met a young woman yesterday that may be baptized this week. 

It's always wonderful to hear stories of missionary efforts at home. Yesterday we did a split with two priests of the ward here. The Lord is preparing His army. The youth already know how to teach, testify, and invite. They just need opportunity to practice. Seek ye learning, be courageous. 

Until next week.
