Photos: 1-Samuel & Ana’s baptism. 2-The 2-year mark party!!
Mas bah...
barbaridade tchê,
The time is coming to an end. I can´t
even keep tract of the minutes! I am sad that I have to leave Brazil and the
mission, but I know I need to move on to the next stage of my life. It will be
a good change. Just nobody laugh at my English when I get home. : )
So this past week we had 2 great
baptisms! Ana and Samuel were both baptized and confirmed. I was able to
confirm Samuel and Elder Longo was able to baptize Ana. It was a very spiritual
meeting for the baptism and the following day in Sacrament meeting. I am super
grateful for the work we are able to be a part of here in Santa Rosa. The
members here are awesome!
We spent most of the week preparing
these two people for the baptism and almost everything ran smoothly. I am
noticing a lot more things in my life that will change soon. Seems like the
Lord is opening my perspective a little more to prepare me for the real world
after this mission. I am so grateful for Him and for his mercy. I truly feel
Him changing me and preparing me for the smallest of things until the greatest
of things. I am blessed to been able to see this change in many other people as
well…investigators, less active members, friends, missionaries, and specifically
family members. The Atonement really is infinite and eternal.
So this last week on February 27th
when I was coming home I thought a lot about the mission and the time I have had
here in the service of God. The spirit touched me very strongly and I almost
cried with excitement that I was able to finish the work of a whole 2-years to
my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I was able to celebrate with the elders
here in our house, but they don´t quite understand yet. They have a lot of time
left…ha-ha! I hope I am able to help them out by knowing how we need to finish
up a mission. Working hard and loving the people everyday is the secret of a
good mission!
Shortly I will be arriving home and I
will see many of you again. I want you all to know how excited I am to see you
and how much I love you! The mission has changed my life and I will forever be
a witness of Jesus Christ, His work and His glory! I want you to know that I am
here for you for anything you need.
Mom, I love you soo much Mom! Thank
you for the letter.
Dad, thank you so much for the
letter…it really touched me. I love you Dad!
I know that this is the Church of
Jesus Christ and that His work is in acting, we need to be apart of it!
I love all of you!
Until next week,
Elder Bradley Jason Hauck
