MADEIRA ACTIVITIES

Madeira is still part of our mission and as beautiful as ever.  There are more hikes and mountains than we'll ever get to explore.  But our group of 10 missionaries on the island are working hard and seeing a lot of new converts and helpful members!

AHHH, THE MISSION LIFE!

There are many things going on daily in the life of a missionary from mulitple meetings to helping close apartments as our numbers go down.  Even though we are fewer in numbers, we are stronger than ever in faith and works!

AUGUST BAPTISMS

Down in Aveiro, a whole family is being baptized one by one.  Vadsen was the latest member of the family to be baptized in the river by his older brother.  Elders Cotter and Marlor are working well with the whole family as they commit to becoming members of the true church!

Yes, we really are sending home 15 of our best missionaries.  Then in 2 weeks we will lose another 12 of our finest.  Change is always good!  Our best goes with these wonderful missionaries!

July Arrivals

We sent home 15 missionaries in July and we only received 3 from the Provo MTC, but they are the best we could have hoped for!

Missionary Life

We have a lot of great members in the Portugal Porto Mission and our missionaries really enjoy working with them!

Baptisms

At the end of July we saw baptisms of family members including Daniel, Sandra, and Mario.  It's always a good feeling to help someone find the blessings of the gospel of Jesus Christ!
