HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you all are doing good! This isn´t going to be very long, but i hope you all have a good time at the parade and all!!!
Well, President Batt left last tuesday and our new president got here as well. HIs name is President Souza and he is from Curatiba. It´s funny because each week we have to email a letter to the president and now that our new pres is here we have to write in portuguese and my companion sister black is all worried about having to write in portuguese. She wrote it all out this past week and had us other sisters correct it. Then we get here to the lanhouse and she forgot her letter at home haha we all laughed. BUt anyways, this week was really busy. ANd it passed by so fast! We were running all over the place this week. We had a baptism for Bernardo. It was really good, although we had almost zero support from the members. I felt so embarrased, but we made it special for him. He has changed a lot. When I first met him he was very reserveded and didn´t talk much, but now he´s open he talks a lot more with us and he´s so happy. I can really see the change in him.
We actually had lunch at his and his wife´s house. IT was super good, it was way too good....it made me a little trunky. We get there (it´s an apartment complex) and they have a pool and a patio where you can eat and visit and all that. Anyways, they had family there, kids were swimming, it was sunny, breezy, a big lunch, fruits, ice cream....i think you can get the picture.....and i think you can understand why it made me trunky ;) Brought back lots of summer time memories! It was really great!
ALright, well not much else that happened this week, it was just super busy. HOpe you all are having a good time and i love you all!!!!! HAve a good week, and get lots of candy at the parade!!!! :) Tchau!!!!
Love, sister salisbury
