Whoo! it was great to hear from those who wrote this week! Dad my health is great! haha you'll never have to worry about me not eating! continue to have hope for Mike! Jon I am continually praying for you to get better! MINDY wrote me! WHOOO ha thank you for your testimony and know that the power of prayer is real! I feel you prayers daily! Heather it is great to hear that the bells of Iowa are ringing true, haha ringing,  in missionary work! Hailey is going to be NINE? what is this? haha ah oh well! Myara, not mayram, has received much comfort through the plan of salvation! Gil had some opposition this week! And so did Patrick! continue to pray for them as well as pray for Jennifer and her mother, and Andre that they can be baptized this coming sunday!

 I am still in the same area with my son Élder Periera! Oh and I am a district leader now! I guess the Lord wants me to repent just that much more! haha But I am grateful to be an instrument in the hands of the lord and to serve other missionaries! This week was about the Atonement. I well never forget the greatest gift that I have received in my life! Forgiveness. forgiveness for all that I have done wrong and that I get up and always continue forward! to be forgiven our savior paid with everything he had even his life! I truly stand all amazed at all he has done for me and continues to do! May we stand at all times for him. know that unlike him we will not have to stand completely and utterly alone. he will be on our right and on our left and he truly will go with us in all things as we stand with him! I love him! May we remember him this week and forever!
