Answer to MOM:

We have been having really hot and really rainy weather. One or the other, nothing in between. Roasting hot or POURING rain. It's good though. The rain does make it a little harder to work. 

So I stayed in the same area, I'm training Elder _______. He is from Goais, it's close to the capital Brasilia. He is 24 years old and has been a member 5 years. His mom and sister are also members. He has a fiancee waiting for him back home. 

Also I was called as a District Leader. Elder Perrell was transferred to the Baixada and is a Zone leader there, so I took over the District here. It's going fine, nothing different yet, but this week I think I will get to do some baptismal interviews which sounds fun.

Oh and as a trainer I basically just carry more of the load. And when we study together we have to study a program called 12 weeks. So I just teach him and do a little more of the teaching in the lessons. But he is good. Since he is Brazilian there isn't a language issue and he does really well already.

Well that's all for this week, Thanks folks. Tchau

Com amor,

Elder Cameron Bruce

Answer to DAD:

I'm grateful that you think and pray for me all the time.........

Well 2013 has been real busy for you guys. It's been pretty much the same thing here. I am training a greenie now. It's cool, I like to talk a lot in the lessons anyway. And now I make pretty much all the decisions since he is completely lost haha. It makes me think about when I was being trained. At least he speaks Portuguese.

And I'll probably stay here another transfer since I'm training. The training last two transfers and normally President leaves the two together until the training is finished.
