Letter from Brazil...

Here is this weeks news from Brazil...

Hey whats up?Too bad the cards lost. Should of expexted them to blow it. Must have been bad if you didn´t send the score. So dustin surprised everyone, thats crazy! Is he sleeping in my bed? ... Sounds like everyone is doing good at home. Everything is going good here. We got a brazilian in our house now since elder christensen got transfered, his name is elder A. Souza. Alot of the brazilians have the same last name so they put their first initial too. He is really cool and he is the companion of elder deboer. Its nice to always be around a brazilian because it forces me to speak portuguese. Elder wardrop and i worked really hard this week but it didn´t end very well. We had rafael all ready to get baptized and he was pumped and really excited and he already talked to his parents about being baptized, he´s 16 years old. We got our stuff at our house and we were walking with him to his house to get a towel and when we got there, his mom told us that she didn´t want him to be baptized yet. This happened about an hour before the baptism. It was a bummer. But he will get baptized, he has a great desire, he might have to wait until he is 18 or convince his mom. But other than that it has been hot here and it still rains at least once a day. We will just have to keep working hard and put the bad things behind us and God will bless us. But everything is going good, the members are starting to give more references now and references are way better than knocking doors all day. We can knock doors all day and find a bunch of people and get one or two people that are really interested. Or we can get a reference and the people are already friends with a member and are more accepting. Everyone still doing good at home? School just started this week and school here is only 4hrs long and everyone has a choice to go either in the morning, afternoon or night, its weird. I´m having lots of fun here and learning a ton of stuff. Everyday i learn something about the gospel, language, culture and it´s pretty awesome. ...I´ll talk to you all next week!Elder Lewis

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
