Porto, Portugal Week 13

We had an awesome, tiring week! We have been contacting everyone we see on the street. Sister Pennock is a workaholic! We are working super hard. We have seen lots of miracles the past week.
We taught a really amazing lesson of the plan of salvation to A--- and her entire family. Her teenage children were even there! They were so excited to go to church but then they didn't come. We still don't know why. :( It was a bummer yesterday. E--- didn't come either. He has been a little lazy.. he is a busy college student so I guess it makes sense.

We taught a new family who live in our same apartment building. T--- is the mom, S--- is the 22 year old daughter. S--- is studying translation and wants to be a film translator when she finishes. She speaks English very well. She has studied a lot about our church! We were teaching the restoration and T--- said that she feels like she is already a member but just doesn't know it yet. Super cool!

We bought a Christmas tree for our house this week. We are getting excited for Christmas! We bought the ornaments today. We have already been invited to a member´s home and.. T--- invited us over for Christmas too! So we will be taken care of. :)

Love you all! Tchau!

Love,
Sister Anderson
