6.3.12


Hey mommy!!

I know it is June...it is crazy!! I had to bear my testimony for my last time in Portugal this week which was super weird! I couldn´t believe that really it was happening. My companion had to renew his visa so he was there for 2 days so i went with my old companion Elder Roundy and  funny kid, Elder Wolman. It was super great. Guimarães is a super awesome place! 

This week was pretty good not a lot of interesting things happened but yesterday we had a Zone Conference with Pres. Torgan and it was super awesome cause it was his last one as Pres. cause he will go home to Brazil 3 days after we leave. It was super awesome and he talked a lot about how the theory everyone knows but how we need to actually do it. Stop talking all pretty and just put it into action. It was good. When we got back to our area it was almost 8 at night and we ran to visit some of Thebers friends which was super awesome we taught the first lesson and it was amazing to see that really they did feel something different and Theber taught a lot of it with us. He is going to ask his mom today for her permission to be baptized on this Thursday! haha s

Sounds like you guys are having all sorts of fun adventures. That is super funny that ellie didn´t want to give her tooth to the toothfairy, but I also didn´t want to when i was younger. I think I threw one of mine away when I cleaned out my room when I was getting ready to come on the mission! ;) I think what we need to do is build a covering thing for where we have parked the wheelers...extend the roof of the shed or something as well!

Thanks for everything mommy!! I love you tons!

Hey daddio!!!

So in response to your last emial sorry i didn´t get it in time and we had to go quickly unexpectedly. 

Don´t be to worried about driving it will be fine it is the worst in Europe, but the accidents are normally people rear ending others so just make sure to keep the normal space and it will all be good. there are laws and cops that sorta enforce it. basically it is just small roads with a a lot of small cars. It will be fine just make sure you know how to drive a stick cause 99% of the cars are manual.

We had a fireside on Sunday that was super awesome..Pres. Torgan talked about how to find happiness today and the secret is repentance. It was super awesome! Also we found a cool family or two. One guy named Tino who we explained the first vision and invited him to pray and he said he did three times and each time he felt peace and a difference. He is coming this week to church and it will be awesome! His wife was super excited because she was an active Catholic but fell away because he fell away, but she said we have re-sparked the fire inside him and he even said we unlocked a little monster inside him by the way we talked to him about our message! It was awesome! He used to be a pro basketball player and is constantly giving us updates on the NBA and everything! It sounds like it is getting pretty crazy! I hope that it is Oklahoma vs Boston and it goes all the way to 7 to have Boston win. :)

I am still feeling really good! It was weird to have that last conference, it was the last I will have in the mission. It was the last night a lot of the missionaries will see the Torgans, so Sister Torgan gave us all hugs which was sad. But I will see her in 2 weeks. I am not to nervous...trying to figure out what I need to leave in the house and what I should take back, but other than that it is all good. Theber should be baptized Thursday and we should have Vera as well before I leave and I pray that Tino and some others can get rolling for my last Sunday! :)

Thanks daddio!! I love you!!
