June 16, 2014


HAPPY FATHERS DAY! Thanks dad for everything. im trying to be ask good of a missionary as i know you were, but i have a long way to go. Thanks for the example!

Hey Fam!  this week was pretty good! it passed sooooo fast!
We have been working a ton and searching for the elect!!!  We taught a ton of lessons and are trying to work alot more with the members.  its been paying off.  last pday we went to this park that is seriously ENORMOUS that is in our area,  it has a huge track and a bunch of areas tand machines to do excersizes, at night they have a hiuge stage and do zumba there, its like a big outdoor valley! ha. we will go there today again with some young men from the ward to play basketball and stuff.  but i will NOT play.  i will just watch our work out or something.

The world cup has been crazy.  Everyone is always watching it, but we arent aloud to.  My comp heard from his family that the missionaries where he lives can watch it. lame!  we had to be in our house before the game started, we tried to study.  but it was just fireworks and people screaming the whole time! It is literally nuts the day of the games here, tomorrow their is another game. My comp is dying from not watching the games...ha. 

Theirs so many missionaries from our ward! wow! 
Our ward seems great, thats so cool the experience you guys had at the temple. wow.   

The work is great, we have a couple that is trying so hard to get married. its pretty tough here because of all the paper work. But they are so elect! She worked yesterday but he walked to church alone! They invited us out for pizza this week. So thursday we are gonna go get some pizza with them. haha.

Isaias was baptized and is very excited to get the priesthood next week and to put his faith in action.

so everything here in brasil is so fragile and cheap including the cars. and the other day i shut the trunk of one of the cars of a member....and i guess i broke it. ive been slacking withexcersizes in the morning, im so weak! dont know where the muscle came from. ha. we called him a few days after to mark a visit and he said i broke it and it costed 150 reais... i tried to pay him yesterday but he wouldnt freakin accept the money!!! but he did accept one of my last dollars i have with me.  He said it was all good and laughed about it, thank goodness. he is super cool.  

Well i gotta go! hope you have a great week!
LOVE YOU GUYS!
