WEIRD where did they come from? haha i want to see pics from the herp trip, tell devin to send some to me. 11 am there is 3 here. works out perfect. (for our Mother's Day phone call) president said that we can use skype but without the image. he said if i find out you used the image ill send you home to see the image of your mom for the rest of your life. hahaha i dont know if skype would be better or if it would be better to just call... i dont really know how skype works that well. you have to have a login but you guys could call the irma and derek can talk to her to set it up. it will for sure be way cheaper... aka free, hahaha, but i think thats it. i will talk more about it with mom but if you guys could respond to make sure its under control for sunday or work it out with irma jurema.

Are all of the elders you are living with natives? no. there was 3 and 3 but 2 of them moved out today to a house in their area, Elder Wensel and Elder Fernandes. now its my dupla and elder Wieniesky (Brasileiro) and elder Casper from Washington, he went to byu too and elder wensel is a ute. we always walk around the house in our byu shirts, haha, good stuff!

How many investigators did you have at church? um, 4 i think. tinha mais (was more) but we divided the other dupla.
When did you feel the Spirit the strongest this past week? with Val and that whole family. we had a family night and a couple of other families. we watched the restoration and bore testimony and then everybody started sharing testimonies and basically it turned into a testimony meeting. the spirit was super strong and we went back the next day and Val accepted a date to be baptized and the whole family wants to come back! they all bore testimony and felt the spirit and now they have a reason to go to church. Val is too and will be baptized. they have to be there ne. haha
