After lots of hard work this week, we had the privilege of bringing 13 souls unto Christ! We baptized a mom, Maria Rosa with 6 kids, Gisele, Marlon, Tiago, Lucas, Gislane, and Mateus; 2 neighbor kids, Ana and João (who have parents who are in the prosess of getting married); a young girl, Sarah, who is a friend of a member; Isabel and William, who are friends of my recent convert Edimario; and Luzinede who is engaged to a member.

It was a lot of hard work, but it sure paid off!  We broke 2 mission records! The record for baptisms in one day, which was 11 but now 13, and the record for baptisms in a zone in one day, which was 18 but now 21.

I am definitely seeing the Lord’s hand in the work here. When we do our part, the Lord does His!

I, the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say; but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise.  D&C 82:10 

Have a great week!

Love,

Elder Olsen
