The first was a man named Thiago who is 30 years old. He doesn't even live here he lives in Sao Paulo! He came here to visit his friend who was a member he had been to Church 1 time on Sunday! he told us while he was there he felt something he never had felt in his life and he has been to MANY other church's, we taught him about how Only The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has the Priesthood authority to baptize and he accepted to be baptized on Wednesday just 3 days after! His friend who was a member baptized him and it was a wonderful experience! When Thiago came here to visit he did not even expect to find the TRUE church of Jesus Christ. Like I mentioned he has already been in MANY other church's and when the member here invited him he just figured why not? its not going to hurt anything, so he went and what did he feel? the Spirit which testified to him that this truly is the only TRUE Church of Jesus Christ here on the face of the earth. He had already seen our church before many places in the world because he works traveling but he never entered till this last week!
Then there was a baptism for a girl who spoke English! Her name is Talmirez she has 17 years old, she simply read, and prayed to know if this was the True church of Jesus Christ and visited the church and received an answer! through? the Spirit. Its not us missionaries that convince people that this IS the TRUE church of Jesus Christ its the spirit.
Sunday we had a baptism for a man named Charles he is 18 years old! he has been frequently assisting our church for OVER 2 years but never made the decision to be baptized! we have been teaching him for 3 months and this week out of no where we were talking with him and we said "Charles there's going to be a baptismal service this Sunday what do you think?" and he says Yea I'm going to be baptized Sunday to, I want too." He received an answer that this Church is true a LONG time ago, all we did was help him recognize that he had already received an answer!
Our last miracle was a Woman by the name of Fatima she is 24 years old and she lives way out of the city remember that place I went to were I got lost? thats like 1 hour away from Juazeiro by dirt road and theres only 1 bus that goes out there? (we have a member that lives out there with a car) well she showed up this Sunday with that member all on her own! we talked with her and she said she has been looking for a friend someone to help her and guide. We told her about the GIFT of the Holy Ghost that we receive after baptism, and how that gift is a guide in our lives he literally helps us make RIGHT choices and to know what we should do with our lives, She accepted to be baptized in that day in that very hour! and the member that lives out there baptized her after church! I know this is the TRUE church Of Jesus Christ I know through the spirit of god which revealed it to me! all of you can know as well! you should know! because it changed my life and I know have that guide in my life that helps me everyday but its only something you recieve in the TRUE church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! I have over 100% sureness that this is the true church because of the spirit which I feel! This is the same Church that Jesus Christ established here on the earth! and miracles still happen today! these 4 baptisms were miracles! and I get to see miracles EVERY single day here in Brasil! I love you all and I thank you for all your love and support!
