I Lost the Memory Card from my Camera! Ugh!

This week doesn't have a lot to say. we worked very hard and a lot of things "bad" are happening. we are having the whole list of investigators stop listening to the lessons and it's been a bit more stressful here... my companion and I are doing well together. No problems there I just don't know how to help her and so it's a bit frustrating as well...

 

I lost my memory card with all my pictures from my mission and so i am very sad... I have hope and faith that someone will find it and bring back to me.. please pray for it to happen... 

I was not mugged I PROMISE. I took it out to print photos and I put it in my pocket to go back home and I don't know where it went after that. I thought I took it out and left it at home before I went to work, but I haven't found it at home and I don't know. I went to the store and the bus stop and we walked the whole route we did the other day. I have faith that I will get it back just keep praying!! 

 

So my week was a bit harder but I am doing fine. I'm loving my mission and every little trial I have. sorry 

 

I don't have a lot to write but I love you all and wish you a great week!! <3

Why Did I Come on a Mission?

So happy for everything that happening at home. i am glad the kids are enjoying the activities that you have planned.. 

This week was a bit hard we had worked a lot and had nothing to show for it until Friday night!! i know that the Savior is always helping. we had a lot of help from him this week.. there was a point during the week i asked why was last week so easy and this week is so very hard, like no one cared for anything and my companion and i just had rough days and we were complaining about it and the Lord was like trust in me and everything will be alright and that same day we had been just walking in center and we had miracles happen. we had three people stop us to talk to us about the church and now they are doing well in the lessons.. also we went to church and had none of our investigators there but Heavenly Father helped and put a new family in our path so we can teach...

The week was great and i know without a doubt i couldnt have done it without my Savior on my side!!<3 

 

Mom asked me a couple of questions and I want to share my answers with everyone...Here are the questions she asked: Why did you go on a mission? Why do you think Heavenly Father needed you in Brazil? AND have you done what He’s asked you to do?

 

I am on my mission for a lot of reasons, but the most important is because i know that this gospel can change lives and that it helps our families have happiness.. i wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my family and knowing that we can be together forever and that we are happy all the time. i know without a doubt that Brasil is the place our Father in Heaven needed me, i have never doubted it.. i know that they people ive helped needed me and i know that i have had the chance to change their lives for the better.. i try everyday to do what he has asked and a lot of the days i feel like i am doing well.. we can always improve and be better, i know that my Heavenly Father is proud of my work and that i have done what he needs.. i love my mission and the chance i have to be here <3 

 

i love you all so much have a great week<3 

 

Love, Sister Moss

 

 

A Plea from the Missionaries

It's awesome to hear all of the good things going on at home tell Makenna and Trey congrats for me!!

My companion is Sister Santos she is from Santos- Sao Paulo she has 6 months in the mission and she is the daughter of Sister Prieto!! (Meaning Sister Prieto trained her) we are living alone and its something very new for me. i thought i would hate it but i dont hate it, but its not my favorite. i like more people here!!! 

the ward is great they help us in literally whatever we need!! this is the wealthiest area in Ribeirao. its crazy, the members live in the nicest house i've ever seen!! all of our investigators are references and its so much easier to work. i have one piece of advice for you 

 

PLEASE GIVE REFERENCES TO THE MISSIONARIES -- PLEASE!!! It makes all the difference!!! 1/3 references are baptized and 1/100 contacts in the road are baptized. please help the missionaries!

sorry its very short this week but know i love you all!! 

Love, Sister Moss

 

Transfers...

So i was TRANSFERRED

i was transferred to a ward that (I've heard) is very hard to work with and with a companion i dont know and on the other side of the mission away from everyone i know and i just feel alone here.. i know its just a start to a new transfer and i will give my whole heart in helping this ward be better and to fit in here..  i know that there is a reason for everything and that it will all be okay. i know that i can and will finish strong and that our savior will be helping me like always.

this last week in Barretos was really sad, i HATE goodbyes, and the week was full of them.. members and other missionaries that i wont be seeing again before i come home!! but i love the work we did.. we had 2 people in church with us and they are really progessing well one has a baptism on the 9th which is Saturday i hope i will get the pictures of him!! things are going well i know things will be good in my new area!! 

have a great week <3

Love,
