Well, I can´t even remember what happened this week, I´m getting old.

Yesterday was stake conference, and 2 baptisms for my district... One right after the stake conference one at night... They were both surprises but welcomed... 

On Saturday i helped the sisters from Camaquã give a tour to their investigator that was baptized on Sunday, it was a lot of fun. Then we had the adult session of stake conference which starting this week the elders were allowed to go to. Though, I didn´t see Paulina at either of the sessions. oh well. 

Today I ate, very well at Lobão ``Big wolf`` IT´s what everyone says to be the best restaurant in our mission and the ruele is you have to eat their at least once when you go to pelotas... Well, seeing as how I didn´t last time, I couldn´t let it slip again and can I just say... wow... 

During the week we just did a lot of running around. On Friday we had our zone conference, interviews with President Castro, the AP´s slept at our house for 2 days.... It was a lot of... fun.

at Lobão with elder Campbell and elder Peters

yes, that is meet with yogurt, jam and strawberries... and it was the tastiest thing ever.

Another week another sunburn.

On tuesday we went to a sisters house and talked with her son again. He has a desire to come back to church but was just needing a push. I guess we did good enough because yesterday he went to church@!!! :D

Wednseday We visited our neighbor had been to church a couple of times then we met with our ward mission leader.

Thursday. Visitied Vinicius and Alessandra again. It went really well, again.  we went on splits... I went with Elder Galdino to do some baptism interviews and it allw ent well. After we did the interviews we went to dinner with a member (At his house) I saw a play station 4 for the first time. That was cool and ate one of the best lasagnas in my life.

Friday We went to Camaquã to do baptism interviews for the sisters in my district... That was the whole day. a 2 hour bus ride there and back.

Saturday. English class, nobody went. We had our weekly activity... Nobody went. The Zone Leaders baptism went well. We had 3 investigators there (OUr neighbor (carmen) Vinicius and Alessandra).

 Sunday. Church, meetings. We were supposed to sing during sacrament meeting but luckily there wasn´t time. :D Then at the meeting I saw a bunch of people from my first ward. Then we had FHE with the bishop and a family that he wants to help.

So, this week was realy really really hot. They´re saying that this is the hottest the Rio Grande do Sul has been in over 60 years.

Bag change, now I am a real missionary

Picture from the Christmas party. 

My collection so far

We made french toast

On Tuesday we had district meeting then Distrito amigo in our area, it didn´t end up helping that much but, oh well.

Wednesday We had lunch with a super nice lady with an inactive son (about 24) that wants to come back to church. This week we´re gonna go with him to buy church clothes. After lunch we spent the whole day trying to get to know the people and find new investigators. The members are helping a lot. we´re getting a lot of references to help us out

Thursday  was pretty much the exact same thing.... It´s kinda the same every day.

Friday was the same thing.... with rain.

Saturday we had our english class and weekly activity, then went to try and find an address that doesn´t exist. So, I went to the doctor to finally get my neck looked at after a month of pain. It´s nothing, just a sprained neck, I´m taking medicine and already feeling way better.

Sunday was a good sunday. Lunch with the stake president, visits with some members. and we went to a house where there´s a possible baptism.!!!!

this morning we got our best lead. We tauht a man (vinicios) and his wife (Alessandra) And were able to mark their baptisms for the 22nd. They went to church once a couple of weeks ago with his cousin. I think they´re gonna be good. Thursday morning we´re going back!!! :D

Bowling on my last PDay in POA

Last time seeing Elder Viana, he goes home on the 10th

We are in a very wealthy area so we are given a lot of money for lunch.  We have more money to buy good food at home, I am slowly learning to cook!

Road rash!

On Monday I went bowling


Tuesday I took a bus the whole day,though it was nice, with air conditioner and water...

Wednesday we had our district meeting My district is me, elder campbell and 4 sisters. then we got money for lunch... we didn´t end up eating though until about 3:30. We then spent the whole day inside organizing... it´s kinda like ``The other side of Heaven`` 2 new missionaries get to an area without any paper work or anything to help them... That´s about where we´re at. Oh well.

Thursday-sunday we got to know the area and the people knocking on a lot of doors and doing contacts... Gotta start somewhere, right????

I´m going home, going home, tell the world that I´m going home.

Transfer news is in, and I´ll be returning to Pelotas!!! The neighbor ward, 3 Vendes. For the first time I´ll have an American campanion (elder Cambell) Let's see what´ll happen right.

Well, the week was good. On Tuesday we had district meeting,

Thursday I went to the foot doctor (Now I don´t know what´ll happen since I´m so far away

If ya´ll google ``Pelotas igreja mormon`` Ya´ll will see my chapell, it´s huge! I already sent one photo home from in front of it.

Friday we had a service project all day, and I got fried. It was our whole zone we painted a school and boy was it hot.

Well, we had LAN House problems... Ours got shut down and now we have just a couple of minutes to write an email! So the best thing, today was pday, we played football then ate mcdonalds!!! A little expensive but it was a different, and doing things different is worth it here.

On tuesdday we had New Years eVE!!!!!! That was fun, we stayed home ha. Cool right, though during the day I was able to cut my hair. :D Finally it was getting super long. During the day we just did a normal day of work and got our food ready for the night. Oh ya, and we had district meeting during the morning... One more training out of the way... Good thing that next week is the ZL´s training.

WEdnesday our lunch fell through, we visited some people, knocked on some doors, tried to atleast everyone was hung over and sleeping. Oh well. After a bit of that we went to Paulos (not Andreas because she went to the beach to work)

Thursday We taught Erika, we visted MA´s and stuff... I don´t know if ya´ll remember last year at this time but... Everyone is going to the beach now. It´s getting kinda hard to find people home.

Friday I went to the doctors after lunc... Little by little maybe my toe will get better. then there was a terrible rain and we did distrito amigo.

Saturday after lunch everyone had to go the the ``Ipanema`` ward to get invitations for the rededications of the church and we stayed around there inviting everyone for about 5 hours. Though it was cool because finally my district made some contacts. :D

Sunday we had church, an interesting lunch (don´t even ask why please) and then we left with a member for a couple of hours before going to the Elders of Cavalhada to sleep there so that we could leave early to go hiking!!!
