july

The week gave a lot of work.  I enjoyed it though.  To start,  Brasil has A TON of pride for their country.  Basically the whole city shuts down when Brasil is going to play and everyone on the street is wearing Brasil soccer shirts or Jerseys.  Then the game starts and everything shuts.  When Brasil scores a goal everyone in the city starts to scream and start to light of TONS of fireworks.  It´s quite a sight.  It´s funny, because you know if brasil made a goal.  You hear one person scream because their tv got the goal a little faster then the others then the whole street is just screaming YEAAEAAAAAEEEAAHHH!!!!

Teaching was a little bit of a pain because brasil was playing 2 of the 7 days of the week and one of the days Spain and Italy played in Fortaleza, so all the stores had to shut down because of the game.  No one really wants to talk because they are all watching the game >.>

We have a couple of investigators with potential to progress.  We did a lot of contacts this week because of lack of references we are getting from the members.  It was good though.  I´m a little bit sick because it rained really hard one day and we didn´t have an umbrella with us, so we had to run around in the rain.  Hope it goes aways soon.  Raimundo was confirmed.  He even came to church in a white shirt and tie!  Suprised me!  He is progressing super well!

Thanks for the support and love I recieve.  I know this is the work of God and we should all try to further his work

Love,
