Dear Everyone!!!

Wasssup? This keyboard is terrible so sorry for all the mistakes I Will make. Anwyays how are you all doing? Things are good here in Paranaguá. Me and Elder Wardell are going crrrazy and working hard, i Love it! I think yesterday was one of our Best days. We came home and my brain Said, “ok, I have been working like crazy all Day, time to GO into hibernation.” Haha but I had a good feeling of peace like i really worked hard ad did a good job, it was awesome.

We have been going to english schools here in our área (there are a ton here in the Center) and it is starting to pay off. We are getting tons of refrences and people all around the city are loving us, so awesome. Its a cool way we can show we are normal people and aren´t freaks. So one cool thing I have been thinking up is an America party!! It would be a tour chapel and all the americans of the zone would do a little presentation on their city and what life is like in the us. I think there would be so many people there!! So keep your ears open to hear about that, should GO down in Novemberish.

We have been finding a loto f cool new poeple and taking some different angles on investigators that weren´t progressing and its really paying off. There is one (Her name is Patrícia) and she is the momo f a recent convert from our ward. Her son actually hás never been confirmed yet so we are working more with her so the whole family Will start to GO. She REALLY beleives in the bible but she doesn´t even want to ask God to know IF the book of Mormon is true, kind of weird. So w are taking a different approach. A few days ago we left a bunch of scriptures for her to study from the bible. So yesterday we wnt over them and mainly focused on receiving the gift of the holy ghost by the laying on of hands. NOT ONE other church does that, and it was something ALL THE apostles did (See acts chapter 8) so we showed her a bunch of things like that and it was AWESOME! It went very well. So we left a TON of scriptures for her to study about apostasy, it Will be so cool.

I AM happy to say all of our 4 recent baptisms are FIRME!! They are all so cool. Especially the two boys Nei and Flores. I am happy to see their progress.

I listened to a talk the other Day by Jeffrey R. Holland about byu/education and it was fantastic! He talked about the sacrifice o four ancesters especailly in founding BYU. I really didn´t appriciate the opportunity I have to study at BYU until now. I didn´t do so well my first time, but i learned a lesson. Education is so important and we should make it one o four top priorities. My priorities were a little mixed up before the mission, but I would say I have gotten them straightened out.

Thank you all for your prayers and support. I Love you! Have a good week
