Hey everyone!
Transfers again! I got transfered to a city called Venâncio Aires, and it´s awesome! My companion is Elder Costa, and he is from Manaus, which is really close to the Amazon rainforest. He´s really cool.
When I was riding down from Passo Fundo to Porto Alegre last week, we passed through a mountain range. I kept my eye out for secret Gadianton Robber caves, but I didn´t see any. I guess it does say that they were pretty well hidden...
Last week, in Carazinho, we had the opportunity to do something really cool! In the Passo Fundo zone, there is a small city called Lagoa Vermelha. They have a branch, and they meet in a rented house. They have land to build a chapel when their attendance is higher, but they have been struggling to increase the attendance for the past few years. In fact, the attendance was so low, that they are in risk of losing the land for the future chapel. To help them, our entire zone (8 companionships) went to Lagoa Vermelha to blitz the city on Saturday. Sunday was their ward conference, and they had a goal to have 100 people there. On a normal week, they only have 30 people at church. We spent about 4 hours on Saturday, going from house to house, and inviting them to church the next day. Then we all left and returned to our areas. Sunday night, the missionaries in Lago Vermelha called us all to tell us that they had 105 people at church, and 74 non-members were there. It was pretty cool to say the least.
Thanks for your support everyone!
Sincerely,
Elder Day
