This week was cool because even though I sweated abunch we worked with lots of members and Alberto blessed the sacrament in sacrament meeting. Also Alberto´s Sister Deise is preparing for her baptism and when all goes well o Alberto will be able to baptize her!
We had a family home evening that nearly did not happen.It was scheduled and everything, but everything was happening so that it would not happen.But even though it rained and the family home evening was in a different house than planned it turned out being really cool. We watched a short Mormon message about how in our relationships we need to let people know that we love them. Jesus Christ never stops loving us.
One thing liked during my studies this week read Mormon 9:11-14 which I liked because it gives a good summary of lots of the plan of salvation and how the Atonement frees us if we will only accept what Christ has done for us.
When Elder Farias bid farewell to Bishop Claudio it was cool because Bishop talked about how with the social media today that we will always be able to have contact with the people that we meet and help during the mission and that the gospel blesses families and that when a missionary serves a mission pretty soon (20 years or so) that same missionary will be sending children into the mission field to help even more people find out how to have the most happiness in life that is possible.
Also there was transfers and I will be staying in Uruguaiana in Ala Porto and will be training a new missionary, Elder Farias will be going to Ijuí.I am taking a bus to Santa Maria today to pick up my new companion and think that I will only return tomorrow or Wednesday afternoon.
Com muitos sorrisos! :) :) :) :) :)

I asked Cory some specific questions and I thought you would like to hear some of this kind of things too.
When I go shopping I normally buy a loaf of bread and some fruit to eat.which lasts for about 2 weeks. Sometimes I buy eggs or stuff to make pancakes. Sometimes I buy Sonhos form a bakery that we walk buy. We walk everywhere, my area in Uruguaiana is really small so we do not walk very much. it normally takes 15 minutes to 30 minutes to get from one place to another. we see smell and hear dogs cats, birds and horses. We live in an apartment with 2 other missionaries (another companionship) and unlike the other areas my room in the apartment has air conditioning! :) We normally eat at the members houses but sometimes I make Ramen, Fetticinni, rice and beans, Polenta, etc, for lunch in our apartment.
