I`m not gonna go through the niceties cuz i dont have time. Right now, its 4 of us, at the best ward in the mission, and were seeing miracles. This place is amazing.My companion (a new missionary) is great. A lot of faith, a lot of heart and willingly to work super hard. Im really grateful to be here. Were with a 3 transfer missionary, and a brazilian, Elder Bronner - from Curitiba.Weve been already seeing a ton of miracles, finding a ton of people (cuz me and my comp white-washed - started fresh, and clean) in the area. Weve found some families and the members are super excited. Were going to see a ton of baptisms here - can you feel it as I write it? I sure can...
Its a small town in the north end of our mission, and its beautiful. Best thing: no hills!The Lord is placing a lot of trust in us, but with it a way for us to accomplish His will in Yonago. Ive prayed many times and the confirmation has come every time - there will be a lot of baptisms here. My whites are getting ready!!
I love you all and thank you for your support! Thank you for your love and all you do, I continue to pray for all of you. This work is His work, He guides it. This is His Church and His true Gospel revealed by a true prophet. Its awesome. Its powerful. The power of God is being poured here. Love,

Elder Mourao's favorite scripture: Alma 32:42
"And because of your diligence and your faith and your patience with the word in nourishing it, that it may take root in you, behold, by and by ye shall pluck the fruit thereof, which is most precious, which is sweet above all that is sweet, and which is white above all that is white, yea, and pure above all that is pure; and ye shall feast upon this fruit even until ye are filled, that ye hunger not, neither shall ye thirst."

Dramatic Growth
"Under the inspiration of the Lord and the courageous action of Joseph Smith, the first Latter-day Saint missionaries ever to serve beyond North America brought the restored gospel to the British Isles in 1837. Heading that first group of elders was Heber C. Kimball, who set a great example for all newly called missionaries. Humbled by the responsibility and fully aware of his limitations, he poured out his heart in prayer."
'O, Lord,' he cried, 'I am a man of stammering tongue, and altogether unfit for such a work; how can I go to preach in that land, which is so famed throughout Christendom for learning, knowledge and piety; the nursery of religion; and to a people whose intelligence is proverbial!'
"But rising from his knees and accepting his duty, he said, 'The moment I understood the will of my Heavenly Father, I felt a determination to go at all hazards, believing that He would support me by His almighty power, and endow me with every qualification that I needed' (Life of Heber C. Kimball, Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1945, p. 104). Surely God responded to the faith of that young elder, because Brother Kimball and his companions were endowed, 'with every qualification' they needed."
