Man, sounds like you guys all had an awesome
week! I wish I could have been there but I´ve got work to do!! So transfers
happened and, as has been the trend for me during my mission, I didn´t get a
call. Elder Hill and I are staying together for at least another 6 weeks. But
that´s good because we have a lot of work to do. I feel like I learned a lot
this last transfer but we didn´t baptize like we should have and we need to fix
that. Bunch of slackers!! Seriously... but not really. This transfer is gonna
be way better and we´re gonna throw some marriages in there for good measure.
We´ve got two couples who we are trying to prepare for marriage. We´ve still
got some work to do but they are pretty awesome!
Also, the new missionaries come in tomorrow
which means the Canadian comes!!! He´s from Lethbridge and we have arranged for
him to stay in our house on his first night. Just imagine, you go half way
across the world to serve your mission in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, and
you spend the first night with two guys from Medicine Hat. SWEET!! I´m super
pumped. He´s gonna be an awesome missionary because he´s from Canada!!
As for buying
stuff, there is a place calles Sucupira that has a bunch of stuff from America
and China. There was a razor in Calu and Angela´s, the grocery store we go to,
but it was about 33$000 (or $400). So I figured that was just a tad bit
ridiculous. It would almost be cheaper for dad to fly here and give me one in
person. But you can find all sorts of random stuff here.
Our week was pretty good. No baptism though...
G, our gangster friend, has gone two weeks without using drugs and is
psyched out of his mind to be baptized next week! We´ve been working a lot with
these families and are kind of in the process of finding new investigators. Not
too much really happened. We´re pretty pumped for this new transfer and a
chance to redeem ourselves. It´s gonna be pure awesome!!! Anyways, have a good
week and enjoy the rest of summer!
Love, Elder Dola
