Dear Fam!

MUITO OBRIGADO FOR THE PACKAGE!!!!  ITS FREAKIN BOMB!  you sent alot of toys, ha. The elders were laughing at me....until they saw all the chacolate!!!!  haha  The music is soooo good...THANK YOU! you met my every request.  

This week we had a meeting in Goiania with some of the zones that are close to goiania.  It was really sweet!  Our mission made this book to accompany PMG and its really awesome!  President said to everyone to stop reading the other books and read this first.  Im liking it alot.  we have been told we need to improve our teaching...alot.  So im really focusing on how i can do better with that and teaching by the spirit. 

I think we will have interviews this week and those meetings are always cool as well, we gettin a big boost spiritually. 

Well the 17 year old girl we are teaching, Estefani, is doing really good, she has been to church 3 times and is continuing to progress very well., the bishop is helping a ton!!! he is awesome!

i heard form landon the other day, it was good to hear that they are doing good. they just need to go to church!!!  ha.   Its been a little cold here as well with lots of rain and clouds...i love it! i can sleep so well!  but the sun returned today again...i hope i can sleep today. ha

Sunday was so powerfull, they totally called out the parents on their responsibities, it was really cool, it was spiritual and nice, but very powerful. They talked about spending time with kids and helping them.

Thats so cool jake, your gonna love it there...until you have to be there at 430...ha.    Caleb is such a clutch player...i remember he did that in baseball too... i will never forget that game! it was just a little leauge game but was SOOO intense and  he was so focused for a little kid and took his team to victory. He is awesome to watch.

Do you think you could sent me a peice of paper laminated with the quote by abraham lincoln abhout being a leader  thats says something like, to convince anyone to do something, you first need to convince them you are their friend.  Just like a small piece of paper laminated in the next package, whenever you send it.  

And a docrtinal question for Bryson... how do you teach the sabbath day holy,  cause in the portugeuse bible it says saturday...ive heard alot of explanantions but i dont quite understand how to explain its actually Domingo. 

Uhm, i always like food, cookies, sweeedish fish, snacks.   I dont need anything specific right now, just the faith of ammon and  the power of paul. 

I love you guys!   miss you a ton!
