Hey, how is it going? We are doing well here in Florença. It was a difficult week but I really learned a lot, especially about how to be patient and hopeful when things are hard. I am grateful for the things that I learn every day on the mission. It is one of the hardest things I have ever done but one of the best. I am seriously and honestly happy to be here. It is a wonderful wonderful privilege.
Elder Wensel and I are getting along well. I enjoy being around him and learning the many things that he has to teach me about the gospel.
And the gospel. One of the greatest things about the gospel is that whatever problem or question or difficulty you may have you can find an answer in the gospel! That is why I think it is called the eternal gospel - it never ends! There isn´t a problem or difficulty that it cannot resolve or help. Preach My Gospel says that it doesn´t matter what the individual problems of the investigators are, the thing that will help them the most is the gospel of Jesus Christ. I know this to be true. I am so grateful for the chance to learn study and live the gospel of Jesus Christ.
I am going to sing Noite Feliz with Elder Hendrikson at the Christmas Conference. He was in my very first district and is a great friend of mine. Gotta start practicing!
Have you guys gotten the new Conference Ensign yet? I am really dying to get my hands on it.
Well, that is about it from me this week. I know that this church is true and the gospel brings happiness and peace when we truly live the principles. I love my Savior, I love God the Father and I am so grateful for the Holy Ghost´s influence in my life. I have felt through this week the importance of the gospel in my life.
I love you all!
Elder Jacob
