<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Guys. I had a super sweet experience.
I was sitting in my room, studying, and I listened to some talks I had missed
from the Conference. I listened to the smooth voice of our beloved prophet and
he shared an experience of a full-time missionary that although he may have
been speaking of someone else, I felt that he was speaking exactly and directly
to me. I Love How The Spirit Works! :) It was during his talk on Temples.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">There will be a lot for me to catch
up on. I thought of the song "Lead, Kindly Light" when it says,
"Those angel faces smile, whom I have Loved, long since and lost a
while."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Well, Elder Holbrook is probably
getting ready to go back to Utah State? I think it is. The Aggies. And Elder
Branco sent me some pictures of him and his fiançé. And Elder Chun will come
home just about one transfer after me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

work closer to the chapel to bring more people to church. I tried sending
pictures last week, but it didn't work! I'll try again, though.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

talks, but what we saw was awesome! We brought some kids from the orphanage,
and the YM President is thinking about adopting one of them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They talked so much about MARRIAGE!!!
Hahahahaha. I came to Conference with a few personal questions of things I want

Thanks for going through all of the trouble. I will decide all of this stuff
when I get home, but I will for sure be there to get Ashley. So, I'll be a freshman
taking junior classes?? Cool! I'll talk with student counselor to get this all
straightened out when I get home, haha.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">As for the looking tired, I will give
you the full scoop when I get home, To be honest I am very tired, but that is
only because I want there to be nothing left when I get home. I want to give it
all that I can muster. I want to finish the race with nothing undone. But there
is nothing to worry about. I promise everything will be all right. I am eating
well. The members are nice here. Today our Ward Mission Leader will show us
around town perhaps to look at the beach (but not to go in it) hahaha. We got
permission from President to leave our area. Should be cool!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I still have to listen to President
Monson's talk, but I downloaded it. I loved President Packer's talk on "A
kiss and a cookie!" It was nice to watch conference this time and
understand just about everything that was said in Portuguese. I cried when
Sister Burton showed the photos of the Prophets and their spouses.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Foi um milagre batizar Robson. Ele
tem esquizofrenia e outras problemas mentais, mas ele seguiu o exemplo de Jesus
Cristo. Ele tem dificuldades na vida dele mas o batismo vai continuar ajudar
ele bastante. A gente vai continuar trabalhar com novos pessoas para trazer
eles às águas do batismo.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">It was a miracle to baptize Robson.
He has schizophrenia and other mental problems, but he followed the example of
Jesus Christ. He has difficulties in his life but baptism will continue to help
him enough. We will continue to work with new people to bring them to the
waters of baptism.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">DUUDES! Yeah, chocolate here is half
off! Holla! Also, there is a brand called "Cacau Show" here it is
sooooooooo gooooood. I'll try and bring some home! It says there's alcohol in it,
which might be why it is so gooooood????????? But my ward mission leader says
it's not against the word of wisdom, I guess......??? Maybe it's just like the
alcohol that's in vanilla or something....??? Hahahahaha!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Thanks for all of that stuff! Maybe
Jury Duty will help me decide if I want to be a lawyer or not??<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also, thanks for doing that BYU-I
stuff. </span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13pt;">Also, could you do me a favor? A few
emails ago, I think you said I could also apply for summer term at BYU Provo.
Could you try and do that for me?? I don't know if it's still possible. But I
would like it if you could look into that option for me!! THANK YOU!!! :) !!!!!</span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Sure I'll send pictures. Ummm whitey
companion?? You mean Americans? Yes, the only time was with Elder Reinhardt,
but Elder Branco (as his name suggests) and Elder Couto are both pretty white,
but Brazilian. Guys I have to say...it's really weird. I like speaking
Portuguese and stuff now.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Yes this is exactly what I needed!!!
Thanks. The fan chart helps. But I mostly needed it updated on FamilySearch
because I have access to it here. I'll show you my "Minha Família"
pamphlet when I get home, it's pretty sweet!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Working taught me to Love other people. I loved my job at the hospital. At the
time I might have thought it was hard but looking back, it was wonderful. I am
glad Allison get's to do something she is really good at.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

General Conference with some specific questions in mind, that I hope to receive

However, I probably won't remember how to drive when I get home...it's been so
long, haha. Dad will have to give me another crash course.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

my blue tie he gave me whenever I am missing him or home or Oregon. He taught
me a lot during our little time together. I am glad DAD and brother Kahn gets
to be part of the Creekside Ward.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Guys, I saw something really sweet
here in the Turf Ward the other day. They gave training on Home and Visiting
teaching, but they gave it in the form of a skit. It was so well done. They
showed members acting out what church is actually like sometimes and showed
ways we can improve. They showed a class being taught on how we need to make
our visits and it showed two people texting and taking selfies during the
lesson. Then afterward they showed how it should actually be. It was really
well-done and to the point. They also sang a few hymns. I'm not saying you guys
have to do this, but I think it would make for a great Ward Activity. I would
call it, "Have I Done Any Good In My Ward Today?" Someone in Kansas
told me that. She talked about that hymn and how in order to change the world
we have to do some good right at home first. It was really special! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I gave a talk this last Sunday. I
talked about who I was before the mission, and how I have completely changed. I
used to prefer to hang out with friends on Friday nights, but now, the only
people I think about other than my investigators and members here are the
members of my family. When I think about my life, I think about them. When I
think about the temple, and heaven, and eternity, I think about my family.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

not the city.) In a ward called Turf. The members are super cooool. The first
day we got here our Ward Mission Leader, Walter, gave us a ride around town,
and showed us the streets. It is suuuuuuuuper flat. Which is way different from
Espírito Santo. I feel like I am in Kansas again. It is so weird to not have
hills. My companion's name is Elder Couto. He is actually from Colatina.....the
same Colatina where I served. Crazy world, huh? What happened is he was serving
in São Paulo Sul when we got sick and had to come home. President Young talked
with the Area Seventy (Elder CRM Costa) and got him re-assigned to the Vitória
mission for now. I am sort of on a special assignment right now...I"ll
tell you about it at home (you guys must not like it when I say that, sorry,
haha!)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

is best. But I do not want to go to Mtn Lofts if the only reason you are
putting me there is Jake and Michael. As much as I Love them, I would like to
go wherever YOU think is best independent of who lives there or not. Also, I
prefer to room with returned missionaries, ones I don't know. But whatever
works. Yes, sure. Do the track thingy, please. Thanks so much.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

O Livro de Mórmon. Nós vamos visitar a família de Alex com mais membros para

and he received our visits. He liked the idea of modern prophets and the Book

with it. I've been thinking about it and maybe I could do 2 years at Idaho. Get
a bachelors degree and then after transfer to BYU for a Masters program, which
would take another 2 years...what do you think? I really am not concerned about
the track. If it is easier for you (and Dad, haha) I can go Winter/Spring at
the same time as Allison. Who knows maybe we would even have a class or two
together! :) Yeah, I'd kinda prefer off-campus. (I need my wings!) Also, I want
to know if they accept my Associate's Degree. I hope I really will be a
transfer student. I also thought about that in summer semester, but I want to
see Ashley and the trip and, yeah.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

to you everything that has happened within the last 2 years. The mission is a
great school. It's a trial and a test. It shows you the worst and yet, teaches
you the best. I have suffered, snapped, and sickened. And yet, it shall still
be called the best 2 years of my life up to this point.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

asked if I would have a homecoming? I don't even know what that is, but if I am

that's okay. Life is full of little disappointments. But at least I made it
into Idaho. Maybe the Lord has another plan for me there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Maybe they'll let me into Clown College
like DJ in Full House. Or maybe I'll apply somewhere else! I've thought about
Weber State or U of U and also, University of Oregon. Or maybe I'll just be a
beach bummm....?...do you think I could grow dreadlocks? Or maybe I'll be a
professional surfer for a living? It's a good thing you sent those mint Oreos.
I'll be relying on their comforting powers during this interesting time. Haha,

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">It's interesting you shared that
experience with me. Something similar happened. President Young came to the
Cariacica Fast and Testimony meeting and he shared the experience he had of
interviewing Joaquim. He also said that he visited recently with a Seventy and
showed him a picture of the Legend Joaquim. He expressed his gratitude to me
and another missionary. It was really weird. I would have preferred he didn't
use my name. John 5:41 </span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 13.0pt;">"</span><span style="color: #262626; font-family: Palatino; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Palatino; mso-bidi-font-size: 18.0pt;">I receive not honor from men.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 13.0pt;">" </span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13pt;">This is one of my favorite

achamos uma família onde todos são membros menos um. A gente começou ensinar
ela, Lorraine, e ela quer saber que a Igreja é verdadeira. A gente está
ajudando ela para ser batizada e confirmada. Também uma outra família menas ativa
tem uma pessoa que nunca foi batizada, Vanessa. A gente está tentando trazer
todo mundo para a Igreja. Também nós recebemos bastante referências com muito
potencial. O Joaquim foi entrevistado para receber O Sacerdócio Aarônico
também! :)</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

family where all members accept one. We began teaching her, Lorraine, and she
wants to know that the Church is true. We are helping her to be baptized and confirmed.
Also another active Menas family has a person who has never been baptized,
Vanessa. We're trying to bring everyone to the Church. We also received some
references with great potential. Joaquim was interviewed to receive the Aaronic

I know, Mom, congratulations! Two 21 year olds...if you put that together that's
like one 42 year old :) Crazy, huh?! My birthday was awesome! I got to teach a
friend of Jackeline and Felipe's. He is atheist, but we will help him put faith
in God. Afterwards we played charades as part of a family night! Hahaha. This
was actually yesterday not my actual birthday. Also yesterday, my ward mission
leader, Acacio and his wife Adriana the president of the Relief Society told me
I had to come to their house. I thought it would just be a family night with
some of their friends or our recent converts, but when I showed up, Elder
Sewell said..."oh they left..." and I was like
"uh-huhhh....?" I walked up with Elder Barros and entered their house
and just around the corner they all burst out and shouted, "Parabéns para
você!" It was really nice they made me a cake and everything. Acacio used
three matches as candles and we all partook (: There is a tradition here in
Brazil that when it's your birthday you have to give the first slice of cake to
your favorite person. I gave it to Acacio but told him he had to share it with
Adriana. Hahaha! It was really nice. (:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Cariacica por mais uma transferência!!! Eu senti O Espírito Santo muito forte
ontem a noite no Batismo. Espero que eu possa ser útil para Deus ainda aqui.
Essa semana Lorraine (filha de um menos ativo) estava na Igreja e nós vamos
começar ensinar ela O Evangelho Restaurado! Ela mora num bairro longe, mas eu
acho que dá para marcar uma data para o batismo!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

for another transfer!!! I felt the Holy Spirit very strong last night at the
Baptism. I hope I can be useful to God still here. This week Lorraine (daughter
of a less active) was at Church and we'll start teaching her the Restored

President Packer holds a special place in my heart. Truly the feelings of

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">In one of the Ensigns you sent me I
read a story about fireflies. The author became disoriented one day in South
America. He saw a firefly and thought it was the North Star...(yeah the North
Star does not appear in South America, only the Southern Cross and others). He
compared that to obstacles and temptations how; we must not be deceived by what
is up close for those things, which matter most. Things far beyond, even
eternal things.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Yesterday was a special, landmark
day. Pedro received the Melchizedek Priesthood and shortly after he came to our
Chapel in Cariacica and baptized his brother in law. President and Sister Young
were there in time to make the ordinance. He gave me a big hug. It felt nice.
My joy was bursting over. Like Ammon, I felt my joy exhaust and exceed my
strength. Although Gisele and Pedro live in the Sister's area now, I know the
Lord will take care of them. Gisele is on the activities committee and Gabriel
has received the Aaronic Priesthood if I am not mistaken. The Lord knows the
end from the beginning! In one year they will go to the Temple and be sealed as
a family. And it all started by a simple, faith-filled street contact. Imagine
if fear would have gotten the best of us? You just have to open your mouth. I
do not say this to receive recognition, but rather to express my gratitude and
infinite Love for my Father in Heaven. He has been so good to me and to my
friends.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">After the baptism there was a sweet
multi-stake training meeting. I saw youth, adults, and friends I had served
with in Serra and Colatina! They surprised me. It was great to reunite in
Cariacica.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

better than I left. I will make 21 the best year so far. Thank you for starting
this Journey with me.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Yes, I have. Everyone refers to it
this way. When you start your mission you are "born" in an area and
then you "die" when you go home. And when you train you refer to your
trainees as "son" or "daughter". Likewise your trainer is
"dad" or "mom". My Dad is Elder Holbrook and I have 2 sons,
Elder Johnson and Elder Barros. Also when I was in the MTC the president there
paraphrased The Book of Mormon saying, "And that same spirit which doth
possess your body here in the MTC will be in you when you go off into your
mission fields!"<o:p></o:p></span></div>

actually friend of our Stake Patriarch. Patriarch Samuel is his name. He lives
in our Ward, Cariacica. I almost have completed 6 months here. I truly love
this area.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

cannot wait for Wiliane to go on a mission, and Cleiton, and then to see Penha
and Manoel get married, and in one year Pedro, Gisele, Rafaela, Gabriel, and
Laura will be sealed as a family! :) Andreia will go to the temple in one year
and Rebeca will continue in the Primary! :) Bishop said that this Sunday he would
interview Joaquim to receive the Aaronic Priesthood! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

activity and the ward mission was in charge. It was hilarious. It was called
"Show do Mormão". We had trivia questions about the gospel and
secular knowledge. And in between there were games and tests of strength. Elder
Bean took a video of Bishop trying to pop a balloon blind-folded. I'll have to
get a copy. We all wore our hipster glasses it was hilarious.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

and it sounds like she treats him well. He is taking some classes online I
think but wants to enter the classroom pretty soon.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Thank you for those scriptures. I
think I am fine :) Anything I need I will let you know. I Love You! :) :) :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Remember, The Lord suffered beneath
all things. And most certainly, we are not greater than He. He is our big
brother and we shouted for joy when we knew HE would be our Savior.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

the last one. We are also visiting Andrea more because she is kind of lonely

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Joaquim was confirmed and he spoke as
he felt the Spirit of the Holy Ghost descending upon him. We will focus rather
on finding new researchers. And those that we have we will help them to fulfill
their commitments. This Sunday Everton and Ana should be in Sacrament Meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I ended up speaking on Genesis 22 and
the great sacrifice that Abraham made of his son Isaac. It didn't seek in
before, but I learned that Moriah, the land where that sacrifice was made, is
the same place where Jesus Christ was Crucified (Golgotha). The name only
changed because of the great difference in time. Each of us should make a
sacrifice to show our love for God this New Year!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

This is good. As Angels and Airwaves once put it, "...sometimes it comes
with a Shove..." :) Allison will thank you for all of your tender nudging
down the road, because that is your purpose as parents. To set your children on
a course that will lead them back to their Heavenly Father. Bishop Porter told
me that once.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And thank you for
your help on setting goals! I will certainly apply this to 2015! This year will

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">This Sunday the Elders Quorum President
asked what Christmas traditions we had to remember the Savior, and I talked
about how my mother always put Nativities throughout the house and Dad would
read the passage in Luke about The Birth.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">What a wonderful opportunity you had
to juxtapose two very different Christmas events. How bright is the contrast
between a work Christmas party and a Christmas Activity of the Church! We also
had a Zone Christmas Party, which was awesome. I got sunburned! hahaha playing
volleyball. We watched an adorable video of these Brazilian children
re-enacting the nativity story. I'll have to send you the link.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Also, Pedro and Gisele held their
Wedding Reception at the Church. There was a huge turnout. People from out of
state came including her parents. And I even got to speak English with some
dude from England. We took pictures, which are on her camera so; I'll forward
them as soon as I can. Everything was perfect! I didn't get to sing like they
wanted because the microphone wasn't working...saved by the bell! Haha. But
seriously it was awesome! Gisele told me in 1 year they will go to the temple
to be sealed as a family. They invited me to attend if at all possible. I Love
fading into the background to notice how the gospel transforms people's lives.
We really did nothing. We just invited. They were the ones who made the changes
and it was The Savior who atoned for them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

a visit from a Seventy! Yeah, Sundays offer a different sort of work than the
rest of the week.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">As for now the plan is to spend
Christmas at Acassio's. We will probably Skype from there after lunch about 2 a
clock our time, but I am not sure. Is it possible for Ashley and I to speak
with each other? If you know her schedule please let me know! :)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I am not sure what will happen, but I
hope you know that whatever happens, my only desire in all of these things I've
done has been to bring honor to My Heavenly Father, second to my family, and
then to the Stake which I represent which is the Salem, Oregon Stake.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Obrigado por suas respostas! Essa
semana foi ótima! Joacim estava na Igreja e ele tem um data por batismo dia 14!
Vamos tentar marcar uma data com Iago também que estava esse Domingo. A maioria
dos outros que estavam na Igreja infelizmente não são casados legalmente. Vamos
trabalhar para a caramba! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Thanks for your answers. This week
was great! Joacim was in church and he has a date for baptism on the 14th! We will
try to arrange a date with Iago also this Sunday. Most others who were in the
Church unfortunately are not legally married. We will work to hard!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

converts are a precious priority. President Hinckley once spoke of how they
need 3 things: 1. A Friend, 2. A Responsibility, and 3. Nourished in The Good
Word of God. We truly need to take care of all of them. That they might
"go no more out" (Alma 7:25).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

should focus more on the Savior.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Yesterday, after teaching 3 lessons
in a row with our awesome Ward Mission Leader, Acássio, we were talking about
how wonderful the teachings of The Savior are. How He taught simply, and
firmly, yet many did not or would not understand. But He kept His course. For
instance, when speaking to the Jews He said, "Destroy this temple, and in
three days I will raise it up" (John 2:19) They thought He was talking
about the temple structure, but in reality He was referring to His Body as a
Temple, and how after 3 days He would be Resurrected. Or when the Jews claimed superiority
to other people due to their direct lineage to Abraham and their
"rights" to the Covenant established with him. Jesus replied,
"Before Abraham was, I am." (John 8:58) The Hebrew name Jehovah means
"I am" or "The self-existent one", or in other words, here
Jesus The Christ taught that He was "the great I am" who conversed
with Moses. Or when He was tried before a corrupt nation and when questioned He
kept His peace. Like the centurion present at the Crucifixion we know that,
"Truly this man is The Son of God" (Mark 15:39).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Christmas. I Love that movie. Also, the church website has "A Christmas
Carol" by Charles Dickens available for download. I may listen to it to
invite the season; Allison might like to know this as well. I am dreaming of a
White Christmas. Not in snow...that would be a little unrealistic here, but in
white in Baptisms. Gisele and Pedro were finally married and baptized...the
same day. I will send pictures as soon as I get them!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Marvin J. Ashton!!! I actually received that quote one year in seminary! It
helps a lot to know of <u>all</u> the gifts of God!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I, too, have a quote from Elder Marvin J. Ashton to share,
"A True Friend is one who is willing to take us the way we are but is
still able to leave us BETTER than he found us."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">No matter what happens, I just want
all of you to know that all I intended from my service as a missionary was to
bring honor to first My Heavenly Father, then to my Family, and thirdly to the
Stake in which I represent (which in my case is the magnificent Salem Oregon
Stake in Zion).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Essa semana a gente foi protegido
muito do mão do senhor. Membros e missionários na aula Cariacica trabalhavam
juntos para ensinar nossa pesquisadora Brenda. Temos a meta de batizar ela
depois a Igreja no Domingo que vem. Eu estou muito feliz pelo batismo de Pedro
e Gisele dia 4 de Dezembro! Eu nunca tinha um pesquisador que marcou o próprio reunião
batismal deles! Eles são bem especiais. E eu estou feliz a ver Élder Ferreira
de novo. Washington e Damiana foram na Igreja também e vamos marcar uma data
por eles essa semana!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">This week we were protected much of
the Lord's hand. Members and missionaries in Cariacica class worked together to
teach our researcher Brenda. We have the goal of baptizing her after church on
Sunday next. I'm very happy for the baptism of Peter and Gisele December 4! I
never had a researcher who scored the own baptismal theme! They are very
special. And I'm happy to see Elder Ferreira again. Washington and Damiana were
also in the Church and we set a date for them this week!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Acassio! He is
stellar! We had a good meeting with him and Bishop yesterday. He knows what
it's like to serve a mission and so he knows how to meet our needs in
coordination with the ward. He's like me; he talks like an old man sometimes.
His wife is really nice too. She calls herself my "black mom" hahaha.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

We have new pass-along cards that say, "He is the Present" with a
picture of The Savior. And Elder Bessa goes up to people and says, "Hey
have you received a present yet today? No, well here's one just for
you..."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

nice to get to partake of the Sacrament this week.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Oh, Mother. Thank you for your kind
words. I too, am touched by the story of the Brother of Jared. The Lord could
have made any way for them to get to the Promised Land, He could have invented
an airplane, He could have parted the ocean, but He chose to send them through
a stormy sea with light in their barges and all this to test their faith. </span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13pt;">"Off to the rescue </span><i style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13pt;">we'll</i><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13pt;">

much! The Mint Oreos are already gone ;) The gummy bears and cinnamon bears are
still there, but not for long. I LOVE the CD from Vocal Point. They added
another verse to "Danny Boy" that is not included in the original. It
is way good. I appreciate all you do to support the Lord’s work and me.
Sometimes I wish I knew just how to show my gratitude.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

you this week, and forever.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Muito Obrigado por sua ajuda e
confiança em mim! Élder Barros é um ótimo missionário e ele está ajustando bem
para a vida missionária. Ele ensina bem e com O Espírito Santo. Ele aplica
muitos dos princípios que ele aprendeu no CTM.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Nós estamos ensinando Brenda e espero

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Thank you very much for your help and
trust in me! Elder Barros is a great missionary and he is adjusting well to the
missionary life. He teaches well and with the Holy Spirit. He applies many of
the principles he learned at the MTC.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We're teaching Brenda and hopefully mark the date of her baptism on 29
November. We'll find and teach many young people these days.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">My new companion is great! He is from
Recife. And he's brand new. I'm training again. We'll see if I get to stick
with this one for the full 2 transfers or not! Hahaha. Elder Johnson taught me
a lot, even if it was just one transfer that I trained him. Elder Ferreira went
to Colatina, my last area and I know he'll like it there. Don't forget to let
me tell you about Colatina.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

was good yesterday, many new leadership callings were extended and Bishop is
way animated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I'm glad you guys got to reunite in
the 'Zona! Aunt Sandi always sends me the funniest cards and pictures! I Love her.
She needs to meet my old investigator, Sister Harris. They are a lot alike! She
calls herself "a nut".<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I hope you get the work you are
looking for. It's funny you should use that word, because I was reading in Alma

Winter with all of you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I am so
glad we have a temple so close to us. The people here have to travel about 12
hours or more to São Paulo in order to reach the Temple in Campina. It's a
beautiful structure. I'll go inside someday.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">If you ever get a chance to watch the
Church video "Between Heaven And Earth" you should! Sister Romney
talks about how the temple is like our light in the neighborhood! My planner
has the Kansas City Missouri Temple as a cover!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">We had a chance to hear from a
Seventy, Elder Mazzagardi. He shared his conversion story with us. He also told
us how the Lord doesn't just forgive our sins, but He actually has the power to
take the sin from us and He puts its weight upon Himself because of His
marvelous forgiveness and Love for us.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Beloved President Uchtdorf who onetime said he was afraid to speak English, but
is now blessing the lives of millions the world over in his effort to share his
testimony. He is a good example of not being afraid to share light.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

chance to baptize unto repentance. Once they have developed faith and repented,
nothing impedes them to enter in by the gate. That was a neat baptism because
the daughter asked to go first and then she waited on the steps and watched as
her mom was baptized as well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Yeah, it's easy to feel lonely
sometimes. I just remember that I have thousands of other missionaries around
me serving our tiny world. And there are perhaps even more Missionary Moms who
lend support to each other and those around them. I hope this experience will
bring us closer to our Father in Heaven.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

with President Wilder. But of those few, I could see that he is a man of God. I

how sometimes it doesn't always matter <i>what</i> we study just <i>that</i> we

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">So, I had a neat experience this
week. I was teaching a lady who did not believe that Jesus Christ was
resurrected, or at least not in the traditional sense. She had been taught that
His Spirit went through a "change" but not that he re-entered His
mortal body to a glorified, perfected state. Imagine trying to teach this in
Portuguese. I was not there in the tomb. I have not thrusted my hands into His
side or over His hands and feet as Thomas did, but I know that He was
Resurrected. I gained a stronger testimony through teaching this woman. I KNOW.
"For a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have" (Luke
24:39) were His own words. But I know simply because The Spirit made it known
unto me. As was told to Peter, Flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto me but
my Father who is in Heaven. (See Matthew 16:16-17) I Love each of you, and I
just felt I needed to bear testimony of this particular doctrine.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">As you may have read, we had a
baptism!!! Andréia and Rebeca! I took pictures this time and I'll send them in.
They are really special. Andréia is the mom and Rebeca is her 8-year-old
daughter. She is so great! When she learned about the Word of Wisdom she
stopped drinking coffee immediately and started drinking Cervada (it's this
substitute made of corn or wheat or something that many members drink here).
She came to Church twice. We invited her to be baptized on Saturday during the
first visit and she accepted! She loved the story of a boy with sincere
questions who received answers and identified much with him. She has gone
through hard times like all of us, but she has always sought Jesus Christ. She
had always seen missionaries passing by her home (because it lies on the way to
church) and she wanted to know what they do, but never asked. Elder Branco (my
buddy from Colatina, last companion, and current Zone Leader) did an exchange
with us one day and he decided to talk to her and Rebecca when we passed by
their house. Her Facebook page is filled with posts from the church website and
she watches conference talks after work. She also tells everyone at her work
about her baptism and the church. She read parts of The Book of Mormon that we
didn't even assign to her. She wants to be a Visiting Teacher soon. And she
thinks it would be neat if Rebeca decides to serve a mission one day.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

two friends who will marry soon in order to be baptized) moved to Marcilho. We
helped with the move. It was a sad day for me, but I think it will be for the
best. The ward there has more youth which will be a good support for my 3
recent converts Rafaela, Gabriel, and Laura.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

activity! For Young Women in excellence, we did something similar with our
District in the MTC. We found out much about one another, and grew to trust
each other from this activity.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
like it when Dad shares that testimony. I am always reminded of the song
"I Fall Asleep Counting My Blessings (Instead of Sheep)" from White
Christmas. In Kansas, Sister Bell gave each of us a gratitude tablet (a
notebook) and each day we write 3 things we are grateful for. I still use it,
and reflect on it from time to time.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

been touched by that story. We watched it in the MTC. A video where President
Hinkley recounts the tale, I would like a picture of that crossing in my home,
one day, when I have a home of my own.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

anxiously awaiting the work we will do together for those on this side of the
veil and on the other. This side of The Sweetwater Crossing and on the other.
We will save ourselves with all our dead. And we cannot stop, until the work is
