JACKSON MISSISSIPPI!!! Week 3 in the MTC

This week went by so fast and i cant believe we're outta here in one week. This week we all got our reassignments... IM GOING TO JACKSON MISSISSIPPI! If i dont get my visa by Wednesday im headed there(pray for me that I get my visa)  as much as i wanna go straight to Brazil the south will be an awesome short experience for me, i know the Lord is putting me where he needs me to go and itll be exciting!

This week was great but zero sleep for me found out by being woken up in the middle of the night two of the sisters in my room sleep talk  Other than that its great i love my district and all the sisters! Before bed we play a card game called nertz that they taught me and i hatee it cause i always lose and they said if i won we could play a different game so i locked in and WON 

Me and my comp sista Huber had our second HOA lesson in portuguese and im so proud of us! I thought we did so good, we talked about The Restoration and the lady we were teaching randomly asked us about Joseph Smith and The Book of Mormon, without any notes or prep of answering that question i was able to answer the question, my progress in the language is slow but the gift of toungues is so true! Me and my district also did a english fast a couple days ago and could only speak Portuguese for the day it went way better than i thought but we pretty much gave up after our last class or during ourmeal breaks  but portuguese is going good, still going strong trying to memorize the First Vision

My miracle for this week was the storm we had, the last week at home mtc Idaho also had a storm so i loved seeing the lightning and we also saw some rainbows

the food here is terrible

Spiritual thought 

This week we talked a lot about The Book of Mormon, how to strengthen our testimony and how to testify of it. In a confrence talk from Russell M. Nelson he asks 

What would life be like without the BOM?

What would you not know?

What would you not have?

Ive personally had a hard time getting into reading it and understanding the book of mormon. During my personal study i found a scripture Alma 32:28

28 Now, we will compare the word unto a seed. Now, if ye give place, that a seed may be planted in your heart, behold, if it be a true seed, or a good seed, if ye do not cast it out by your unbelief, that ye will resist the Spirit of the Lord, behold, it will begin to swell within your breasts; and when you feel these swelling motions, ye will begin to say within yourselves—It must needs be that this is a good seed, or that the word is good, for it beginneth to enlarge my soul; yea, it beginneth to enlighten my understanding, yea, it beginneth to be delicious to me.

I LOVE this scripture its awesome i know if you keep watering this spiritual seed it will only continute to grow and so will your understandings of the words of Christ

I love you all!
