This week was very wet. My house mates and I considered
building an ark but the materials here in Brazil are very expensive. Every day
we had hours and hours of rain. It makes the work a little bit harder. Not a
ton of people want to receive two sopping wet young men in their houses. But
what matters is that Saturday Gabriel da Silva Santos was baptized and I got to
get in the water with him and see him come up perfect. The baptism was marked
for 5:30 but happened at 6:30 because they tried to cancel because of the rain.
My bishop explained that Gabriel would get wet coming to the baptism. I
responded to him that yes, He would get wet. That is what a baptism is. He
laughed and said, well then let’s make it happen.
This week we were surprised to see a member who moved away came
back to spend a week here. She is one of my favorite people here. Worthy to be
called my Brazilian mom. We went out with her two nonmember friends to teach
and eat pizza. We ordered an 80 cm pizza bigger that any pizza id ever seen.
Nothing better than Pizza and new investigators at the same time.
Also we discovered that our church has a ping pong table so we
bought paddles and started a few p day tournaments... ha-ha it actually gets
pretty intense. The youth love it. It does gonna be a great way to bring their
friends to activities.
Other than that life as always. My companion Elder Paulo is
great! We are really getting results. And he is my first companion who loves to
clean and be neat so our house looks great. Mother would be proud ;)
I love you all. Hope you all have a great week! Keep being stellar
examples!
Love Elder LEE
