Hello
Everyone!
Ok,
well, in the mail, I received two big envelopes. Inside the envelopes there was
the candy poster thing, pictures, a pair of insoles, floss, Listerine paper
thing, the anti-itch (triple anitbiotic cream, moleskin, and I think that is about it. I never received
the recipes, but that is ok. I will receive more in July. Anyways, I am very
happy I received that much!! Thank you so much for doing this. I appreciate it a
lot. Not a big problem and the chocolate was still good, just had to stick it
in the fridge for a little bit. The
other Missionaries said they have a candy that tastes just like big hunks down
here. I don’t remember what it is called though. I know that I didn’t receive a
couple of things, but all is well in the end. I know I will eventually get it. Oh
but with the SD card, you'll have to send it before the 14th if you want it to get
here on the 1st of July, and express mail. Mail takes so long, but I am
happy every beginning of the month. Mail just brightens everything up. Oh and
since the SD card doesn’t fit your camera, I think it will fit mine because my SD
card is a little smaller than the normal one. Oh and something random....the
words you wrote on the envelopes should read “eu amo jesus cristo" or
"jesus cristo é meu redentor." I know you worked really hard, to get
them here on time and I thank you so much for that, but it’s just the mail
system. It’s all good in the end because I will eventually receive it. I did
only receive one pair of insoles, they are amazing, and seem to be lasting
longer than the last ones already lol. (except my feet stink more with insoles.) Oh well not my problem lol. It’s summer, and
there is nothing really bad happening. I am good. Everyone else is doing good. All
of us are being so blessed, everything is good, and it becomes a lot easier to
focus on the good.
Well,
the families that we have are in the opposite sides of our area, so we have to
really choose which day we go and see each one. So far, the new families are
two. there is one I think I already mentioned that is a good family, and the
father is receptive, so that means that rest of the family will be. Kind of odd
how it works here, but that’s how it is. If the dad goes, then the rest of the
family goes as well. anyways, they are very good. The other new family is an
older woman who is named Maria, and her husband whom I cannot remember his name,
his name is hard to spell and say. Oh well, they are good and they seem to be
very welcoming to us. Maria has a very good testimony of prayer and told us she
wants to read the Book of Mormon. Oh but Iamandas dad, I don’t know what he
does. maybe construction, but it is still very hard to get him when he is home.
This
weekend was the dedication of the Minause Temple. I don’t know how to spell the
city in Minaus, close enough. On Saturday we watched the celebration at the
chapel from Minnaus. Saturday was for everyone to watch, so we had some of our
investigators there, and on Sunday was the dedication. I enjoyed the dedication
a lot because no one under 12 could watch, so that meant no kids running around
the Chapel during the session. It was in English with translation after
President Uchtdorf spoke. It was pretty cool. I never realized it was such a
big celebration for temple dedications, but when a country is bigger than the United
States and only has 6 temples, it’s a very big deal!! That is basically all
that happened this week. the celebration, inviting people to it, and then the
dedication.
Every
day I bear my testimony, and it becomes stronger and easier to say. I actually
enjoy it a lot to say my testimony, it is helping more than I think. Maybe more
than the investigators! Anyways, I love you a lot and I can’t wait until July
to receive more mail :)
Hey
well, I have to go now. I love you a lot and I am happy you are doing so much
for me. I am sorry you miss me. I miss you too and I know it will be a happy
day when I return. I love you again and I will talk to you next Monday
love
