from Brazil...

WOW... Am I ever behind..... here is two weeks of stuff from our missionary in Brazil!


Here are some pics. Brasil won again and everyone is happy. A pic of a family and us, my comp is the one in the back without glasses. His name is elder nunes da silva. His name is really big. On the trip here i found out where all the rice comes from. We drove for over two hours with never ending rice on both sides of the highway. We also had 70 investigators at church this week!! It filled up the chapel. What you see in the pic is the whole chapel. Behand the pulpit is the baptism font, bathrooms, and the branch president´s office.


The rice fields
The chapel


If any one has wathced family guy, the chubby guy on the left is an exact replica of peter griffen with the same voice and everything. This is the little girl who got baptized on sunday with her mom and dad you can cut out the two guys on the right they are leaders of the district. They are why we had 70 investigators, they invited everyone to their daughter´s baptism and a bunch of people came. There was lunch afterwards too.The last pic is us with the branch mission leader with the star of the day and her dad.




I don´t think i sent you these pics. President tobias´ coffin, our zone in aparecida de goiania, our zone with president and sister, and we recieved our `envelope´ that we can´t open until we are on the airplane.






A cool bridge in aparecida de goiania, and me and the ward mission leader in aparecida de goiania.





hey everyone
This week we worked alot to try to baptize the people who went to church last week. It was good, the only bad part is that everyone is going on vacation this week. But today me and my comp went to get to know the city today we went to the statue of christ and also a fishing pond. We fished for a while but we didn´t get anything. The fish there were huge but the water was still a bit cold and they weren´t hungry. The statue of christ is just like the one in barra do garças but i think it is a little bit bigger. This week we´ll have are first zone conference with president prieto, it will be interesting to see how he is like. It feels wierd the president tobias left. But it will be fun to get to know another mission president. But everything is going good here in jataí and i am still healthy. I even gained 1 kilo since i´ve been here. I need to gain more. See you all later. 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!
