Well this week has been
pretty good!! It was kind of strange with Carnival here. The entire world
travels out of town, and the young men and women have youth conference during
it so they were all gone from church this week and we couldn't get hardly any
members at church let alone investigators! But it was good! We had to bless the
sacrament and the bishopric passed it. It was fun! And there were some good
fireworks at night ha-ha.
Well we didn't get much
of a chance to speak with Monica this week because everyone has just been gone!
We had to go to the sister’s area and drop some forms off for them, and we didn't have any money so we asked a member for a ride. It was Alan again. He is
awesome and after he gave us a ride he took us out to eat and talked with us for
a while about the gospel. It was a great time!
It was a bit of a rainy week which was
frustrating because I really needed my laundry to dry. It didn't so I washed it
again and then finally we had some sun!
When we were at our zone
conference this week, my belt broke. Ha-ha Levi, if you go, don’t buy the belts
that rotate so you can have a black and brown belt. That is the second belt
that broke so I had to go buy another one and they are not cheap here! But it
was an experience!
Anyway, I couldn't email on p-day this week because
everywhere was closed in Campl Limpo! Then we had transfers! Yes I got transferred!!!
I was pretty happy! So on transfer day we all go to the bus airport station
thing and meet with all the other elders being transferred. It was a blast
because I got to meet up with some of the guys from my group in the MTC and it
was a blast to see how they have progressed! It felt good to speak some Portugenglish
with them too! Ha-ha there I met my new comp, Elder Permann! He is pretty cool
and he is a hard worker so I am super excited to have the opportunity to work
with him!
I am now serving in the
Zone Itatiba! The area is Amparo! Wow this place is so beautiful! I never
thought there would be any place like this in Brasil! It has been a little tough
here lately and it is super Catholic! It is smaller, but such a clean place and
I have never been in a town so pretty as this. I was literally shocked. They
have some pretty cool Catholic churches here. It is just a dream to be in a
place like this.
But we arrive in our area at about
three yesterday, I unpacked and we talked about our hopeful investigators! He
made some pancakes, oh yes I have missed pancakes so much, it was
great! Then went to the streets and knocked some doors. It was pretty fun
and Elder Permann is a great guy, and is teaching me quite a bit! I am a little
nervous to change areas again but I am pretty excited for what is in store! It
will be a great transfer with him. He has been here for a while and he is a
pretty calm guy but likes to crack some jokes.
Well family all is good
here, it was kind of a ghost town here yesterday but now the streets are
stirring and I am excited to jump into this area!
Well family, have a great
week. I love you tons!
