Hello family. how is everyone. hey the website is awsome, thanks for all the letters. hey Dad i liked that qoate, here is one for you. If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams and endevours to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a sucess the unexpected in common hours. that is a qoate from our prophet Gordon B. Hinckley. well this week was the week of transfers, my comp ws transfered and i got a new comp, his name is Elder Cabral, he is from Rio Grande Do Sul, way down at the bottom of Brasil, he is 28 and little strange but i hope to get along with him. last saturday we had another baptism, Fabricio, he is the brother of the kid who was baptized last week, it was so cool because his dad got to baptize hi also. his dad was so anxious to baptize him, i can´t imagine what that was like, he has only been a member for about four months and has already baptized his two sons. pretty coool huh. we are keeping busy, our goal is to baptize every saturday, so we are always trying to find more people to teach. it was cool on sunday, we had a lot of people that said they would go to church, so we left early to pass by everyone´s house, as usual, no one ended up going, they all had something els to do, but when we passed by the house of Edna, she was baptized two weeks ago, she was there waiting with all of her grandchildren and about five other neighbor kids. it was so cool walking into the church with all of those kids. it made my day. after church we went and talked to all of their parents and taught a few lessons. during the fast and testimoy meeting something really neat happened. when the meeting started the first people to go up was a group of women inthe ward, while they were baring their testimonies i couldn´t help but think of my Mom and how amazing she is, hearing their testimonies reminded me of the strong testimony that my mom has, and how she has always been such a strenght and example in my life. every sunday i recieve more and more strength and enthusiasm to work and share the gospel. oh i recieved the box of cookies. oh it they were so good, i havn´t eaten a chocalat chip cookie in such a long time. thank you soooooooooooooo much. well i love you guys soo much.
