This last few weeks are being more stressful than i expected and we're not having as much success like i wanted but im trying really hard to keep focused and proclaim our awesome message. <BR><BR>General Conference was so awesome but i hope to watch it again and study it in the church magazine because i was very tired. Im stoked to help the missionaries in the ward. how many companionships are there? are they cool? are you feeding them? im gonna make goals to give them references every week. <BR><BR><STRONG>Only family at the airport</STRONG>. i wanna meet up with Jordan alone after. I must thank him. I was thinking that i was gonna be alone driving to meet up with ppl after like at their houses to surprise them. idk. thats how it was in my head. <BR><BR>where is my silver suit that i had before the mission? do i still have clothes and my hats? ill need a cell phone and a laptop i think but i can wait till that black friday after thanksgiving for discounts. i have so much stuff that i bought and now i have to figure how im gonna get it to you guys without breaking. i have some hook ups at the airport that are gonna let it pass for being overweight. <BR><BR>ill need new shirts, pants, socks, garments ill get at the temple. im burning everything soon. my suit is a lil worn out but its still good. i wanna get fitted white shirts though. ill wanna walk in moccasins and house slippers for awhile. the netflixs idea is good. <BR><BR>food wise i wanna eat fast food. ive already made lists when we were locked out of our house. Zaxbys, firehouse subs, wings restaurant, seafood, olive garden, wendys, or maybe just a buffet restaurant. its been 2 years since ive drank coke and i think i might take it off my diet for good but ill drink a coke icee for sure and gas station chocolate doughnuts and strawberry filled powdered doughnuts. <BR><BR>on your part, french toast for sure and cornbread and grits. i want Uncle Zac to teach me how to drive a motorcycle and go on a double date with jordan but we´ll just talk to each other about how were such studly returned missionaries and eat a whole large papa johns pizza and im going back to paxon to repent to all my teachers and getting a weapons permit. <BR><BR>Pawpaw will be at the airport right? did you get all that? muhahaha. 2 years! mission! who wouldve thought?! im gonna go visit ppl this week in my other areas. im battling the thought that i havent reached my potential but i know that im on the up and up and serving my mission as faithful as possible. <BR><BR>Im stoked for a family after listening to Elder Anderson´s talk! i gotta get married apparently! woohoo http://www.missionsite.net/elderlooper/viewpicture/215127 <img src='http://www.missionsite.net/pictures/2597/img1317130029.jpg' /> http://www.missionsite.net/elderlooper/viewpicture/215126 <img src='http://www.missionsite.net/pictures/2597/img1317130017.jpg' /> http://www.missionsite.net/elderlooper/viewpicture/215125 <img src='http://www.missionsite.net/pictures/2597/img1317130005.jpg' /> http://www.missionsite.net/elderlooper/viewletter/122192 To Pops:<BR><BR>yeyeeyah! you didnt even talk about the game but Alexa said that we won! <BR><BR>Im in Telégrafo Ward in Belem. Im in one of the oldest wards here in Belem and it hasnt had any activity to divide in over 10 years. esp with the temple close there is alot of opposition but were preparing alot of awesome ppl for my last 2 weeks. <BR><BR>The main awesome thing is that Jhuly, Fernando, and Mauricio are all doing super well in seminary and they go to all the activities alone. René paid her tithing this week and is stoked to prepare herself for the temple to be sealed with her kids. She didnt know about the law of chastity before being taught and now she is really rigorous and covers up like her daughter´s cleavage and tells her that, ''the law of chastity teaches us to dress ourselves with modesty and respect our temple, miss lady.'' It was so awesome. Her other daughter will be baptized this week. <BR><BR>The twins´s sister went to church this week and loved it and we think that she´ll soften the mom´s heart. She had a dream that through her, her whole family would be converted to the gospel and she believes that this dream is coming true.&nbsp;<BR><BR>The family that we married isnt going too well. I got almost mad at her excuses. I felt like the prophets of old that chewed out the iniquitous people. we´ll see how it goes. Pray for Antonio and Luisa and Fabiane and Camila. <BR><BR>Everything is going swell. Im dying in peace.<BR>Elder Looper http://www.missionsite.net/elderlooper/viewletter/121009 To Mom:<BR><BR>This week has been swell. The mission is alot more chill with Elder Santos helping me out. So many people have been prepared for the last few weeks of my mission. René and her daughter Jhuly were baptized this week. They were just shining after their baptism. I baptized Jhuly and she came up beaming with a huge smile on her face happy as can be. It was a great feeling for me too. She goes to seminary and chorus too. René asked us to teach her other daughter Adriele too. It was all so very awesome. <BR><BR>One of the secretarys passed to me all the videos that were in the office and i watched a video that was made by Pres Campos´s kids for him with music and pictures and i balled. Him and Sister Campos have made a huge impact in my life. <BR><BR>Ive learned that truly through the small and simple things can we show how great our faith is. Ive strived my whole mission to do my best. I cant say i have no regrets cause for sure with the knowledge i have now id do it all different but ive trully loved my mission. <BR><BR>There are just so many awesome people waiting for someone to share the gospel with them. I cant wait to share with yall the experiences ive had with these people. My vision is so much more ample of the life after, our eternal life. <BR><BR>Im anxious to be back. I love yall so much. tchau!<BR><BR>To Pops:<BR><BR>Im in Belém the center. Pres Campos will update my temple recommend. The Atlanta temple was rededicated i saw. <BR><BR>Whats the Clemson game ill see when i come home? I know you have tickets to a monday night game at the Jags right? Thanks for telling me that time of the FSU game. ill be sure to turn to ESPN while were filling up the baptismal font :) <BR><BR>Im so stoked for real though. We threw the football in the park for exercises one day this week. I have such a greater mind set for sports now. I was very immature still in high school. Ive still got a good arm though. I love ya pop.
