tudo bem neh?

hello hello hello hello! so how is the family? so time is flying to fast, i
am way excited to talk to you but its already mothers day and man this whole
mission thing is going by way to fast. but i would like you all to know that
i am doing GREAT. these past few weeks have been lots of fun being
companions with elder buck again, but also really demanding. the whole
office thing is alot different, you have a lot to do during the day at the
office, and then you got to go out and are expected to do all the stuff that
the normal missionaries do with 10 hrs in their day. its really been a new
challenge. its like a completly different mission, you work with normal
business people all day resovling problems or doing this or that for the
president and then you got to turn around and go out in to your area and
work like the other missionaries. its been a good experince so far though.
but the president talked to me and elder buck this week and elder buck will
be training me to be the new financial sect. so i will have to deal with all
the spending and finanices  of the mission pretty much. its good though cuz
you learn alot of stuff! you pretty much have to me completly organized with
the money or its your head.....so ya, you get really organzied pretty fast.
there are 4 missionaries in the office right now. usually its just us here
unless the assitentes deciede to come by or the presidente or something. but
normally its just us. but things have be great, there has just been alot to
learn. but last night me and my companion went out to work and when we were
out we made a contact with this family infront of their house and got inside
to teach the whole family, it was really cool, they all seemed to be really
touched by the message and are all excited to go to church tomorrow. so we
are pretty excited here!!! we had a recent convert here that has been
awesome. somtimes the recent converts are scared to tell there friends about
you or they tell you that there friends dont want to hearyou, but this last
recent convert, was this lady and her 2 boys. but the lady is awesome, she
has been telling everyone about the church, and we have been teaching alot
of her friends, and its great cuz she always comes to teach with us and
wants to bear her testimony...she is awesome!!! but ya everything here has
been going great. man i am so excited for you jake!!! this is going to be
the best 2 years of your life man! you are giong to love BRASIL!!! its the
best country ever man! the people here are really friendly, you can make
friends with anyone! your going to love your mission man, i have heard alot
about fortaleza man, its hot.....:) but its awesome! there are some
missionaries here in my mission that are from there. my last companion was
from there. ELDER ALVES. its the bomb man, your going to love serving in
brasil! you will here this phrase all the time, espeically in the CTM ( MTC)
`their are 2 kinds of missionaries, the ones who go to brasil on their
mission, and the ones that wish they could go to brasil on their mission`
hahaa its true i wont lie! :)

well hope everyone is doing great, i love you guys tons! i want to thank all
