Week 5 in Rio das Ostras

Braden writes that there are two people very interested in the church;

It is a little tough having people keep their commitments here, but we have been praying this week so we will be blessed from the Lord.

It was way funny yesterday too on our way back from church, because the chapel (which is in an old house) is right on the beach, so when we were leaving, my trainer was like: Alright Elder, get ready to close your eyes. It was pretty funny. Not only are there women with basically no clothes on on the beaches, but men....very fat men with speedos. It isn´t pretty.

We have a Zone Conference this Thursday so we have to travel to Rio again for that at like three in the morning again. Yippee! It will be pretty awesome. Then we have General Conference on Saturday at one to three and then five to seven. I´m way excited for it, but I can´t believe it´s already time for conference again! Seems like it was just like two months ago. We have to try and bring all of our investigators to that as well so it is going to be very exciting.

Braden writes about visiting a home to eat,
Usually we dish up our own food because we know how much we can handle, but she did it for us last night and it was kind of depressing looking at all of this food that we had to find a way to get inside of us. It was really, really good though. Don´t worry, I´m not fat.

He writes about some experiences;
We had some good lessons this week for sure. We taught a lady who is having problems with going to church and it was a really Spiritual lesson for all of us. The Spirit was really strong there and I hope that we helped her out with her problems and that she finds her way back into the church again.

Hope everything is going great for you all and I will talk to you next week and make sure that you watched conference. :)

Love, Elder McDonald
