Well I´m running out of time this week to write a group message but i just wanted to send some quick pics and do a quick update on what´s going on out here in brasil.

As far as today we had transfers and i left my old area that is Intercap to agronomia now, where everybody calls it the Céu, so i´m pummped to be working out here, I´ll be working with my new comp, Elder Johnson, who´s from Vegas, my first american comp so i guess we will see how this goes with two americans working hard in Brasil. 

As far as these photos, the ones with the car is a group of teens that we are teachingt and wanted to take a photo with us so we had to go with the abanden car, and then we bought some pizza because I´ve been out here for one year on the mission now!!!!!! 

We baptized JESUS!!!!

First of all i have to give a shout out for my man Jesus.

Right now I´m talking about Jesus who we got to baptize this week who is also one of my favorite people in this world now. He´s one of my favorite people because of what he has helped me learn in this short time with him here in this area. 

One of the greatest lessones i have learned from him is the meaning of true repentance, Jesus had a very different life when he was younger, he didn´t always make the right decisions and it ended up making a big change in his life, I won´t tell you all exactly what happened but what i can tell you is how we can all change for the better. 

After a while of having some serious problems in his life he decied to make a change, and man what kind of change did he make in his life. When you talk to him and everything you would never think that he had the life that he had, and about all the things that happened. 

 

This is honeslty one of the best parts about serving the mission is getting to know people and learing with the people, I always thought that when you serve a mission you just teach the people and have them do the things to get ready to be baptized one day, but it´s a lot more then that, you are always learning how to change how to be better, you are learing when you just listen to the people and what they need and you learn how you can be better during all the moments in your life. If i learned one thing out here it is that everybody has a story, everybody has a past. When we look to serve others we are going to have a better life. 

One other fun fact about Jesus is that he´s a rapper so when he´s famous i can say that i taught him and know him!!!
