Hello all and happy December
or Dezembro if you want to speak Portuguese.
It is still hot
here... but the fact that São Luis is an island means that there is always wind
and often my tie is blown over my shoulder. So I like it here.
This week we
traveled to Teresina to have a new monthly meeting for zone leaders, so the
last week of the month I will be traveling!!
Elder King and I spent
the last week organizing some things... like the area book and also setting
goals for this month so that we can reach the goal of 10 baptisms that
president set for zone leaders this month.... we are going to have to find a
lot of people. But the cool part is that when the lord commands he always
provides a way... it may not be easy but it is possible. I think of Nephi who
was commanded to go get the plates... it only happened BECASUE OF HIS FAITH! The
plates did not just fall into his hands he worked. he tried not just once, not
just twice but three times after the first time all his brothers were ready to
go back empty handed... but he told them that he would not return... not until
HIS MISSION WAS ACCOMPLISED. It’s a pretty cool story I invite all to read it,
1Nephi 3-4. http://www.lds.org/scriptures/bofm/1-ne/3?lang=eng
We also in Teresina
had the chance to stop by Bom Preço... which is owned by Wal-Mart... YEAH IT
WAS GREAT. I am now to proud owner of 12 boxes of mac and cheese, some nutella
and JET PUFF MARSHMALLOWS!!!!!!!! It’s pretty awesome
A
few fun facts:
- Irene your Northface
backpack is holding up well. It is still intact and still being used
- My new area is
really awesome, we just got to get to work and find people
- Elder King is
AWESOME!!! He was at BYU the same time I was and he also lived in Heritage, we
sometimes talk about good old BYU
- We have 22
missionaries in our zone so it’s a bit more than the 4 in Araguaina.
I hope you all have
an awesome week and hope you are all feeling to spirit of Christmas!!!
LOVE YOU
ALL!!!!!!!!!
