First off thanks for the packages. I have started the decorating of our house and also the Thanksgiving Dinner was AWESOME. We did it at a members house with a bunch of investigators and less actives, and everyone loved it. We left just a simple message about gratefulness and everyone shared a little about what they are grateful for. It was awesome and delicious. I made the pumpkin pie alone and it was quite a hit. We had to improvise a few things but in the end it was all good and tasty. The members where we had the dinner added you on facebook. They wanted to say thanks personally.
All the Skype stuff will be easy. Tons of members have it. What time do you think would be best to call?
The work is really picking up. Amanda and Fabio have their date marked for this weekend and they will be interviewed on Saturday. Amanda is 100 percent ready, and hopefully Fabio will feel the same way. And there are a few other people that are progressing but won't be baptized for at least a few weeks.
Vila Humaita is the Ward. I live in Vila Guarani.
I haven't gotten the glasses repaired. I don't think they are repairable. A few people in stores have told me so. So I don't know what to do. I don't know if I can buy new ones?
Black Friday hit Brazil for the first time this year. The US has a big influence on this country.
Oh about mailing chocolate. Unfortunately, Junior Mints can't handle the trip anymore. They came all melty. I still ate them but it was a little messy. so I guess they will need to be taken off the mailing list. bummer.
Amelia got baptized WHAT? Isn't she like 3 still? That's crazy.
The Mission does one special meeting for Christmas, where we will sing a few hymns and hear some messages. Always great. While there I will talk to President about the whole school thing. I might ask him to come home half a transfer early to get back in time for school. But I'll see what he thinks about that too. And yes we get to watch the devotional. But I think it is rebroadcast a week later here. So don't spoil the ending for me.
Oh and we are going to go caroling for sure. I made the suggestion and am basically forcing everyone to go. Haha. It was so awesome last year that we have to do it again. And on Christmas we are told that we can spend the day visiting members but the curfew is the same. So yeah.
Oh and two Brazilian Sisters were wondering if you would be willing to send them two little English hymnals. I said I would see what I could do.
Well sorry for being so late, we went to the temple at a later session today and caught HEAVY traffic on the way back. It was nuts. SOOOO many people here in Sao Paulo.
Até mais. Tchau tchau
