Another transfer and a new companion. his name is Elder C. Ferreira. he his from Sao Paulo. he actually isnt here yet haha he doest get here for another hourish. i was at another duplos house helping them paint there house so im covered in dried paint and sweat. haha so it was fun. im really tired though.

Unfortunately our Zone was the lowest baptising zone by alot. we had 3 for four pairs and other zones had about 20 for more then four. so we got alot of work to do. we got a few people with date though, so we will for sure batize. im excited, just cant afford to start to doubt at all. im working hard though. im exc ited for this new change. will help alot.

Its hard being DL. since i still am learing how to really be a senior. haha but i have already seen a big difference in my teaching and self confidence, and i need to grow more to be better.

(Where is your favorite place to go in Illheus? What did/do you do there?) I like to go to the house of one of our members, its on a hill over looking the bay/ocean and it always has a really nice breeze. its my fav. spot to go to.

We found a hand ful of new investigators that are golden right now. so im super excited to teach them and baptize them. our zone is needing baptizms. Sunday i fasted for success and i think we are getting some now. i am getting alot better at my contacts too. so the work is just getting more natural. exciting, i know. haha

umm...lets see what else. hows dads interviewing coming along? good i hope, i wouldnt mind him having a new change up of things, even if it would mean moving. i dont want to really leave vegas, but since im in brazil for another year, i dont have much say. but i have been hoping he gets a good more solid job and i know he likes the university setting. so we will see what happens.
