Me and Elder Galvão (my companion)


Looking at the street from outside the Lan House right now! (Its worse than it appears in the picture)

Hey!

This week was a lot better! We were able to find some new people to teach! Its about time!!! So we started teaching 3 guys that are all 20 years old. They hang out in the gym all day, have tattoos, and are super rich. They are friends of a less active family that started coming back to church. So two of them went to church this week, and they are all super excited!... The only problem is that they don't live in our area :( ... But thats ok, some other missionaries are going to get some sweet gift baptisms!!! haha

So this week was transfers... Me and my companion are going to stay at least one more transfer together!!! Whoo!

So yesterday after church, something awesome happened. A member brought a super nice cell phone to us. She said she had found it on the ground. So we were like "Give it to us and we will find the owner" So we called and arranged to meet up with the owner at a super nice bakery by his house. And he was soo grateful, and he wanted to buy us a beer to thank us. We graciously declined, but instead suggested that we could go to his house and give a message of Christmas for his family. And he got super excited and gave us his address and phone number. So the apartment building that he lives in is one of the nicest in our area. The starting price of one apartment is like about 1 million reais. So he has got to be loaded! I hope that everything works out and we end up baptizing him! But I'll keep you posted!

Other than that, nothing really new is happening.

Love you!
Elder Schoen
