For today....

Yup, those are my Brothers! =) Great Line Josh! And Cookies do solve EVERY Problem! =] I should know, u just cant be upset when your eatting a cookie, its not possible. We made cookies twice this last week...Elder Bernards hurt his back (shhh dont tell his mom that) and our leaders got mad at him when he tried to keep working so we were out for a few days and one of them we went over to a members house and made cookies and then the second time we made them for Bia and her family. And Daniel would spend the whole day in the hospital...again! lol Glad ally's talk went well =) Well We had another Baptism this week, three total for my first Transfer. Marlon is his name and hes ligit, his mom tried a few times to talk him out of it, she wasnt prhibiting him, but wanted him to study more and attend church more first, but he presented the delema to her like this, "Mom can I be baptised...you need to give me an answer quick cause we're having the baptism on sunday and if you say yes then we're good and if you say no then we're still having the baptism on sunday and your welcome to come. =) " He's ligit! We're also teaching Marcela and her family she has two sons one is 10 and the other is 9, idk how to spell their names...=( and her husband as well. They're really cool, everyone has a book of mormon and the kids read it too and put stickers on theirs and then they love to goof around and I play with them kinda like they're my brothers. I Love thier family hopefully they'll be baptized soon! My Companion was DEAD this week he got on a bus to strat his journey home today and im not going to lie the last two weeks have been really difficult as he wanted to work less and less, but its all good I loved having him around. My new comp shows up today around three and so we'll have to go pick him up and take him back to the house, he's brazilian so I will not be speaking anymore english for a while...it'll be good for my português. Did learn a few good thigs lately, like condensed milk...did you know that it has milk in it...well I figured that out when I couldnt breath a few weeks ago, but it taste really good! =) No I havent gotten your letters yet, but they could be in Ribierão Preto, everything goes there and then they bring it to us. Yeah you could just mailem to me it's just that them I have to have them printed out here, but that should work just fine...and yeah pictures of EVERYONE like family and friends especially Richard and Edy and Rhys and Isa and Haley...if you have em lol =) Thanks Mom Love You all Elder Lund

Nifty experience yesterday, I was asked to speak at the baptism and when I got up there I started talking, and then after my companion said that He couldnt understand a word I said, but everyone understood what I meant thanks to the spirit. It was really ligit!
Some times I can speak Português really well, and other times I can't say a word for my life, but if I start a lesson with a prayer ask for the spirit to be there and then speak to keep him there with us everyone understands what I'm trying to say even though I cant say it. A very comforting thought =) Thought I'd add that to the letter too =)
