11.19.12


As for me i´m doing good.  The week was pretty interesting.  After p day, we had a family night with the recent convert families in this area.  That was good.  The next day I went to work in another Elders area, it was sweet.  The area has mountains and looks like utah.  After that day we went to the office and grabbed our "sons".  My kid is named Elder Pinheiro.  He is from São Paulo.  He is kinda quiet but he is just nervous and is a bit timid.   I get along with him though.  Apparenty when he opens up he is pretty crazy.  It´s funny seeing a missionary fresh out of the MTC.  They have a great spirit about them and they don´t understand anything but they have the will to help.  When he shares what he studied he is always talking about how excited he is to be and help others.  I forgot how like new I used to be ha.  As time goes on you slowly learn more and more every single day and looking back on who I was when I got into the field.  The growth is really really big ha.  It doesn´t seem like it but i´ve changed a lot spirtually, I like to think for the better.  

The rest of the week was good.  We taught a lot (more of just me teaching because he has to learn it all) and invited to baptism.  We hope to have at least 3 baptisms this week.  Nilda ( 27) Rafael (12)  and Caio ( 11).   Caio was going to be baptised this week but he got sick saturday night and had to go to the hospital.  It´s kinda funny Brazilians love to go to the hospital when they are sick.  Even if it´s like a cold.  They take their kids to the hospital.  I laugh...  

I´m feeling great, quite happy at the moment and feeling good to watch my weekly disney movie.  :D  i´m such a kid haha
