A Quiet Week

So not much happened this week, Elder Erickson turned 21, I went to one of the areas of one of our district leaders to do some interviews, and then we taught an AWESOME lesson to a lady that never committed to be baptized, but we managed to do it. It was a response to my prayers in more way than one... I´ll tell you when I get home.

Our baptisms fell through this last week, but we remanded with them for this week, and it´s pretty firm, so it´ll probably go down.... hopefully, haha. One of our investigators is wanting to commit suicide cuz of some girl, another is anorexic, and another (31 year old guy) is dating a 15 year old girl.... oh what a messed up world we live in. So we´re working with these people.

The other day I found a Portuguese Manual for the Old Testament, and oh what gems I am finding in it, it´s the second manual, so I want to find the first one cuz I think it´d be more interesting. I should be focusing more on the lessons, but we´ll see how that goes.

Ah, we´re teaching a guy named Francisco, he a cool dude, but he lives in a hostel-type place. (the kind of place where you enter in a small broken door and enter a building made of plywood, and scrap metal and there´s tons of single-person rooms, and it´s set up like a maze). So it´s always fun to go and teach him, and when it rains it starts to flood inside. It´s a neat experience. He invited us to eat lunch with him too, so we´ll be passing by there to eat some day soon.

I have to say though, I prefer the muslims MUCH more than the catholics, though they are the easiest to teach (cuz half the catholics here don´t even go to church) but they have TONS of strange rituals, parties, traditions....yeah, I´ve seen them pray to a flag.

Anyways, that´s about it for this week, it´s still hot and humid cuz it´s raining every day, and still trying to straighten out some problems in the zone, but all´s well.

*wow... that´s sweet, who said that? was it 50-cent?
* I believe it was God, the biggest mac of all*

Love you all!
