September 24, 2018 -- Morada dos Passaros (Vitoria da Conquista)

thought i would try to get a nice weekly update to you. i think it might be pretty weak. 

so monday we had a chill day and got ready to travel to salvador. i got my hair cut and broke off part of the capsule thing for my bottom retainer. but everything is still strong and hasnt broken fully. dont worry i talked to president about it. 

monday night we had a nice long bus ride and the mission council all day tuesday! a bunch of training and we talked about how we can find more investigaors and more quality investigators! it was a nice meeting and inspired me to change and try to get better.

Mission Leadership Council

Wednesday we got back from salvador and had to organize some materials and get different things to different people. also elder espirito santo got transferred so we spent most of the afternoon getting his stuff ready, then once we got to the bus station elder sorocaba had only bought his bus for later that night. so essentially we wasted time getting his stuff ready to early. but then we had a way sick FHE with some members and their family who was visiting from out of town. it is such a privilege to teach people about the Restoration and the effect it has on all of us! 

Thursday morning we got an urgent call from the Thompsons saying that the sisters needed fans for their apartment because it was too hot. so we spent the morning chasing down fans and delivering them to the sisters on the other side of the city. meanwhile im sleeping at night witha  blanket and a sweatshirt. how in the world they are too hot at night is beyond me. then we had some normal proselyting to finish out the day as well as a thrilling discussion about the book of mormon with Junior and Marcos. lots of talk about open scripture canon and how the bible is enough. who knows i think having more scripture is always helpful! the Book of Mormon is truly God´s blessing to all of us. 

the rest of the week was fairly normal except they cut our water! our whole apartment building has been without water since friday so we have been taking showers out of 2 liter coke bottles we carry home from the church! count your blessings! 

have a good week
