This week was good. I officialy passed one year on the mission! on the 14, crazy...passed super stinkin fast.

 Fernanda went to church again this week! she really liked it and the members really like here! they are making a ton of frinedship with her.  She is having a little difficulty with an answer to her prayers.  Her prayer was answered, but she said it was a feeling really strong, like someone squeezing her heart. she said it scared her quite a bit, so we spent sometime trying to convince her that it was from god, well not convince, but you understand. ha. Shes still a little timid to get baptized this week, so we will help her with that. but in the end, She will be an awesome missionary!!!

Unfortunately i wont be here to see her baptism...because I WAS TRANSFERRED!  idk where im going still, tomorrow we take a bus to goiania and we learn the rest.  But i cant beleive that im already leaving this area, i feel like i just got here yesterday. 4 months passed by so fast.  I really liked this area, im gonna miss it a ton. so many experiences and great people. but im pumped to go to a new area and help there.  i have learned so much here.

So that camera charger isnt the right one, but its all good, my comp gave me a universal charger that works. I will keep the charger you guys sent me in my bag and bring it home with me so you can get a refund. im sure it was expensive.  Thanks tho!    The sweedish fish are gone :´(   they were so good.

Thats sweet you guys had the oportunity to go to Rexburg! you guys are getting some good rest time before the craziness starts again.

YES! everyone is playing football!!! thats great! im so pumped for you guys. im sad i wont be there to watch gerritts first year. But im sure he will shred it up!   Levi will do great, its all good. i have a stuttering problem in portugeuse sometimes. haha.

im not able to hear the sound in the videos that you guys have been sending, but they look great!

Sweet! gospel doctrine! you will be the host of the weekly deep doctrine debates then huh? ha. Im pumped for you to teach me the things that you are learning.  Ya that video is great! we  use ALOT of videos/mormon messges to teach principles and things here. they are really effective.

Thats awesome, everyone will be there in utah together next year! 

LITTLE T! (brother thompson) is awesome. he helped me a ton! him and Bro Ab were always helping me out at the church things.

Elder Neely?! that dude was in the MTC with me! he was in a different district but he came with me to Brasil when we got our visas, i always talk with him at the meetings, hes really cool. Ive heard hes tearing it up!

Thank you for the prayers. Im feeling the help. Im really trying hard to be positive, obediant and let myself be changed, i have a ton to improve. But i know that by the Atonement TUDO É POSSÍVEL!

I love you guys!
