I'm Staying:)!!!!

Hey fam! This is going to be a quick today, but I am staying here! Yay!:) I am so happy and so excited for this next transfer! 

This week we had divisions and I got to work with Sister Costa again in Coimbra.  It was a lot of fun and I love her! She is just the cutest. I asked her about how Emelia was doing? This lady that Sister Shepard, her, and I taught at the very beginning of last transfer when I was waiting for Sister Shipp to arrive. We taught Emelia about the Restoration and I invited her to baptism and she accepted. Well, Sister Costa told me she was just baptized last Saturday! How cool is that!?!?! I am grateful that I got to be a small part of helping Emelia come unto Christ:) 

We get challenges from our mission president every week and this week was to find 5 new investigators, invite two people to baptism, use two new ways to find people, and have two investigators in church. We worked super hard this week to accomplish these goals, but when Saturday night came we had them all except two people confirmed for church the next day. Everyone had told us no or that they were going to be gone or they did answer our phone calls. We were so sad, but then we remembered, "hey this is the Lord´s work. Let´s ask Him for help." So we kneeled down that night and asked that two of our investigators would come to church. And when we got to church the next day I- was there!!! We were soooo happy. And J- came too! This really is the Lord´s work and if we ask Him for help He will always provide:)

Also, happy birthday mom! I love you! have the greatest day ever!:)

com amor,

Sister Sampson
