Family!!!
This week was good! Helena is progressing so much! I love it because we gave her a talk to read about the Book of Mormon. And it talked about how the Book of Mormon is either the Word of God, or it is of the devil. Helena, after reading it said "Pois! Este livro só fala de Cristo. Tem que ser um bom livro." We were so excited! She truly knows how to follow the spirit because her pastor and friends are telling her not to read it. One said to burn the book. But it only makes her want to learn more. And the more she learns, the more she realizes that everything we are teaching is true and makes sense, and goes along with what she already believes as well. She told us this week that she doesn't want to go to her church anymore and that she would come to church this sunday. Though she didn't make it.... She didn't feel good in the morning... But we will arrange a ride for her this next sunday! Oh she is just so cute and happy all the time. Well, almost all the time. Ha. We all have our moments of hardship. But she just has a heart of gold. Oh! Right, this week was transfers.... and.... I am staying! Haha. With Sister Cardoso. Though we did move apartments. We are now going to be living in a Elderly missionary apartment. It is nice. :) We are spoiled. Ha. It will be a good transfer! Oh! So my address is different. Now it is:
Alameda 25 de Abril Nº3 5D
Miratejo
2855-211 Corroios
Portugal
So ya! Oh! Just want to say HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO MY BIG BROTHER!!!! 2 YEARS! PARABÉNS!!!!!!!!!! :) 2  years and two kids! Crazy! Oh and they are just the cutest little things on the face of this planet! I am a very proud auntie!!! :) :) Haha. Anyways, I love you all!!!!!! Don't forget to read and pray everyday. Those basic but essencial things truly make all the difference! It is crazy the difference it makes. I have seen many gain testimonies, and then lose them and fall away from the church because they weren't consistent in doing the "little things." And I never would have thought they would fall away! It is a scary thing. Our testimony is the most cherished possession we have in this life. So we really have to do our part to protect it and strengthen it. I love you all so much! Stay safe! And have a great week! 
Love Always,
Sister Amanda Stokes :)
