So much unknowing...will he be transferred? I just got back one of the packages that I mailed to him on March 29th. It took until June 13th to be returned to me. I will use the different address that he has given me to re-mail it. I feel so sad that he hasn't gotten any of the packages and he isn't getting a lot of hand written letters. I am in repentance mode! I love this young man!
Still nothing with the packages and I havent gotten any letters from
anybody
except Karch. I dont know if you guys have sent anything yet
or not but if
you have nothing is getting through. But life goes on. I
dont know if I got
transfered yet. Elder Azevedo just got the call
that transfers are in so now
we wait until the Zone Leaders call. Im
practically wetting myself in
anticipation. I think Im going. But I
want to stay. Weve met some incredible
people here in such a short
time already. One of them last night, Dr Rogério,
bought us pizza and
gave me sunscreen and when we were leaving he gave us
each 100 reais
and was like in case you guys get transfered here and when we
refused
he said if we didnt take it the missionaries cant talk to his
family
anymore. So we took it, I guess theres rules that we cant accept
money
from people but we didnt really have a choice. oh well, money
for
soccer jerseys :D but hes awesome and everybody feeds us. We ate
so
much food yesterday it was ridiculous. We had lunch with the bishop
and
then had a BBQ with Paulo Thiago then another investogator made us
grilled
cheese and then we had pizza. it was awesome. Unfortuanetly
tho our
missionary work is rough. 2 weeks ago we had 10 baptisms that
I thought for
sure were going to happen and now we will be lucky to
get one. Paulo Thiago
needs to get married cuz he lives with his
girlfriend, Valdacir decided to
return to his old church, Vinicio I
have no idea what happened with him,
Evelin decided that she wants to
get baptized on her birthday in July (which
I think is a scape goat),
and one girl passed her interview and just straight
up said I dont
want to be baptized. So we will see how it goes. I love Elder
Azevedo
and im gonna miss him but its definately time for one of us to
move
on. And the odds point to him which in the mission means Im gonna
get
moved. I love my area, the members are awesome and everybody loves
me.
I have no idea why. I dont say a whole lot ever but people give
me
stuff all the time. Ive gotten a portugese to English dictionary and
a
Portuguese dictionary, some weird tea thing, a keychain, 100 reais,
and
a bunch of little knick knack things. Elder Azevedo said hes never
seen a
missionary get so many things in such a short time. Its
awesome. Oh and the
dedication of the Manaus Temple was yesterday.
That was super cool. We got to
watch it live. One thing I never knew
was that President Uchtdorf is
hilarious. The things he says are so
funny. I was laughing so hard and I was
the only one cuz the
translator didnt translate like the nonsense jokes that
he made so I
was the only one in the room that understood it was awkward. But
ive
only heard him talk in conference so it was way different seeing
like
the normal person side of him. Super cool hes still the man. But
thats
it from Imperatriz, Ill try to email you guys later if I
get
transfered and let you guys know where im going. Love you guys!
