This week it was really great to hear from all of you! Especially Spencer! Whoo Hooo Batismo! Don't you have that good feeling? To know that you helped someone enter into the path that the savior has given us. it is a happiness that really doesn't have words to describe! As well mom and dad that is awesome that Mike Briggs is coming to church! Whoo Hoo! You two are doing a huge thing with him! is he as being taught by the missionaries? And thank you for the money you put in my account!  I am also happy that you are studying preach my gospel throughly! Chap. 11 will help you focus more on the most effective way to call repentence! It is awesome! It is the MOST critical point of missionary work! Oh man Ryan is so right also! I only Have 10 MONTHS left! it has gone by so quickly! but, I am not done yet! Mothers day 3 o'clock your guys time sound good? Just send me the email I can connect with on skype!

So I am leaving My second Home ward, Pinhais! I am sad because it has been so marvoulous to see all the Recent Converts progress so well, but I know at the same time there are those that are waiting for me to come to the new area to help them come unto the savior! But this final week was a week full of happiness! we are reactivating a family and their son was baptized and as well Ana Paula was baptized! I felt at peace that I was able to stay long enough to see her baptized! Elder Flores and I found her in february! Elder Foster is improving his portuguese much faster than I did! And The TEMPLE was so GREAT! I have been able to understand much more about the Father's plan and it was great to remember my convenants that I have made with the Lord! Covenants are the power that drives us to follow our savior! I know God lives! His work and his love have never ceased! I have shared this scripture probably but It is how I feel: Alma 36:24   Yea, and from that time even until now, I have labored without ceasing, that I might bring souls unto arepentance; that I might bring them to btaste of the exceeding joy of which I did taste; that they might also be cborn of God, and be dfilled with the Holy Ghost
May we be filled with that joy and Share it so the Joy may not cease but continue on! I love you all!
