In the past two weeks we have found five new families--husband, wife, and kids. Each one has been a little miracle within itself. The latest one was a family named the Robles Family. We have tried visiting them three or four times in the past. They were a reference from one of the members here in the branch. We ended up going over yesterday and trying again and this time they immediately let us right in! The wife is from Brazil and only speaks Portuguese, and the husband is from Mexico. They have four children all of the age to be baptized. We taught her in Spanish and she would reply to us in Portuguese. It was incredible to see that we actually understood her! We haven't got to meet the husband yet, but we are hoping and praying that he will be receptive to the message. They have an 18 year old son that was with us during our appointment yesterday, and he said one of the most heartfelt prayers I have ever heard, and it was in Portuguese. It is incredible to see how the language barrier can't stop the Spirit!
The Lord continues to bless the work here. I feel so excited to be a part of it! Conversion continues to come and faith continues to be followed with miracles. I hope that all is going well for you back at home! I love you all and know that I feel the power of your prayers!

Oh I forgot to mention that we had a baptism. We reactivated the mom and baptized her daughter. I got to give her the Gift of the Holy Ghost yesterday. Awesome!
