I'm on!

Yes, Im being transferred with Elder Do Carmo to Jardim das Rosas in the stake of Campo Limpo.

No, I'm not angry with you. I guess I just took it wrong, but I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who is changing and growing. Hahaha...

Elder Do Carmo and I baptized our dear investigator Eline, who is well integrated in the ward now.

The mission baptized 33 investigators, 6 of whom are from the stake of Raposo. With certainty I will hear some "infeliz" point out the fact that the mission goal was 70. But on that night, as we were returning hime, and at home, there seemed to be a feeling of celebration in the air over São Paulo. It was well...Amazing. There are no other words to describe the feeling. Maybe the heavens were celebrating with us as well.

Well, the photo with Elder Campos being stabbed was taken at the last district meeting of this transfer, which was the last transfer for Elder Campos. It is a missionary tradition to do something crazy for your last district meeting. I guess he wanted to look dead. Today we took him to the mission office. Well we're not pros. We got a little lost while trying to find the route for the second bus returning home the 7458-10 Jd. Boa Vista. I didn't see this problem until we were in it. It happened because of some one-way streets.

I used my new "Bilhete Único" for the first time today. This bus card allows you to pay R$3.80 and take up to four busses in 3 hours, meaning the laziness just got real.

After the mission I will visit Dad's side of the family, and also use that time to try to get some family history work done, while I'm at it.

I still have 11 months until I return home. So, I'm not going to worry about that quite yet.

I LOVE YOU!!!!

Ian Do Carmo and his mom Sandra Lavigne Loureiro created these fun photos! I wished they could always remain companions.











I finally got myself a SPTrans card.
