The fancy track right by my apartment.

It got back to the right Brazil weather this week.

The most interesting things of the week happen when we are walking home at night.

One time this very nice older man walked right by our side and started talking with us. Really friendly like. He talked with me for nearly the whole walk! It was just what I needed that day because it was a tough day of not being understood and this nice man was patient, understood, and had a real interest in just talking! It was a real blessing. 



Another time I saw a drunk being drug across the sidewalk by his wrist.



Zone conference was good. Playing the guitar for the prelude music was better, and lunch might have been the best!

This bunk is a tight fit.

Anytime I get in a car, I'm out. Cars are a blessing my friends.

We went on an afternoon run after Zone conference and wow that might've been the best idea of the week.
 
Congratulations to all the graduates this past week 🥳



t's weird to think about time, that's probably why God doesn't think about it.
 
There is too much to STUDYYYYYYYY.

The calling grind continues on 🧘‍♂️

We had quite an eventful Sunday that resulted in an hour long walk, one way, for lunch. The way took us through a city, many hills, opening views, slums, dense forests, and many crazy people.

Side note- we found matching hats on top of a trash pile near the end of the walk. That's a blessing.


My zone, zoom in on me.


I felt impressed when we first left on this journey to bring a Book of Mormon with me. Well, this Book of Mormon traveled the hour walk to find lunch and then the same hour walk back. When we got to the square where we lived, tired and ready to eat our lunch, a sorta' crazy lady called after us. She had maybe 4 teeth and very bright purple hair. She started talking with us and then asked if we had a Book of Mormon, well at that exact moment I knew that the Book of Mormon I carried through that whole journey was meant for her. She already knew of its power and wanted that Spirit again. It was pure. We prayed with her and her friend at the end. God is good.


There was a freak hailstorm that earned us 2 showers in our apartment! What a blessing. I didn't know Brazil could get hail so I was shocked. The spontaneous 2nd shower in the front entryway took me by less surprise. Good thing towels and bowls exist.



My whole Zone agrees that I look like Jeremy from Phineas and Ferb.

This might be my most interesting weekly email yet.
 
Welp send me an email if you think so!
