10.21.2013

Okay Familia there is an Elder in my District who is going to Sao Paulo Interlagos but he put his papers in through Los Angeles as well...Well he gave me the website to look at my VISA status I don't know yet if I am going to look at it (we are technically not allowed ) but anyways here it is you have to put my social security number somewhere so I hope you have it it is.... scedv.bra


Anyways! I will soon get my driving privileges...It has gotten cold! :( But it probably won't snow until later como Dec. 

I am going to be sending a box home of clothes and shoes that I really don't wear and I know Chris will probably want them, and I need more room.

I did get the package the young women sent! :) They sent a ton of stuff!! A lot of cards and candy ( some is to give to kids here ) Make up, a scarf, face wipes, chapstick they just sent a ton of stuff so tell them Thank You....Also they accidentally sent me one of Chad Brook's cards so I will send that back home too. 

So our investigator that just got baptized last week, Brandi, well she said she prepared a lesson for us this week and that she has an assignment for us to do as well. haha She is so prepared and she can't wait to get a calling too! 

The familia we are teaching fed us possole (not sure if thats how you spell it) its the mexican soup....Anyways! It was really good and the parents told us that in the past they never let religious people come into their home that they were always mean to them...but then we showed up one day while they were all outside and the dad said we just looked like kids and were smiling and the mom said she just felt something good...So They felt the spirit they are just slowly progressing. The dad said he is comfortable being catholic and that it was hard getting all the kids ready for church the one time they came (Welcome to being a mormon and having kids haha) But they said they did like church and that they won't go every week but they will continue to go...and the mom is going to keep reading the book of mormon. We told them straight up though our purpose and they understood....They still want us to come over though and so we will go hopefully next week they will come to church it is the primary program here too! 

Also this lady we visit has so many health problems and her cats drool on me haha but she is a sweet heart and so we go over... yesterday we went to go visit him in the hospital and sang him some hinos...He is really really quiet but when we went to visit him I have never heard him talk more in my life.... and I guess the wife had fallen earlier that day so we went to her apt after him and washed all her dishes .... I had the stomach to do it my comps maricones SO I washed all the dishes while the other dried and the other talked to her haha....my hands were prune when I was done! But it felt good to serve. 

No joke though I am the cleanest one, and the only one that really cleans so thank you mom! 

Also we had trade-offs this week and me and one of my comps went to the university for the day. It was fun I like going on campus. They are teaching this chinese girl and she was so cute she was taking notes during the lesson. And we also met a ton of Dominicans as well and a guy from Jordan that is muslim and he looked like Mike it was weird haha.... 

Crazy how time is flying this thursday will be my 6 month mark! Crazy! 

Anyways te amo familia eu espero que tudo-bem!
