Week 79- Get to go to the dentist this week

Well first off Happy late Fathers Day!
As far as me, I am doing pretty good! Transfers were this week and I am staying with my companion for another transfer. So we will be going to the dentist together and we will have some fun with that! I broke a tooth when I was on Sal about a year ago. And it has broke some more, so Sister Mathews said I needed to go to the dentist and get a crown on it.
Also with transfers ending guess what? The sisters that came in with me.... are at home now!
Other things... Well our investigator was not able to be baptized... Some personal problems came up with her and her boyfriend and he came over super mad at us. I may have bible bashed more than I should have but he deserved it and I will tell you the whole story when I get home. I promise that is one story I will not forget. Any ways she is still progressing and wanting to do everything to follow Christ she is just having some troubles leaving her boyfriend but we will continue helping her.
Sorry I think that is it for this week! I love you all!

Week 78-

Well this week was a fun one! No change of companions or anything of the sort. As for other stuff..... I don´t know!! The investigator I guess has´nt been able to fully break up with her boyfriend yet I guess but she is working on it. A bit more confusion came up with her and that situation but it should all be good and she should actually be getting baptized here this week!
Oh well I guess this is something I forgot to mention. My companion has his wisdom teeth growing in haha. So we have to go to the dentist this week and he will probably get them ripped out here in a week or two. So if you could give me some ideas on how to mother him and what to feed him that would be good. He is a happy little camper with my cooking so that makes things a lot easier. Speaking of which Mother I want to make the tiny spicy chicken... I have not eaten that in so long! Can you send me a recipe for it please?
Hmmm one more fun story. Some drunk dude was super mad at us for being in his house teaching his family because he thought we were from a different church and he kept shouting swears in another room it was pretty funny. But it was actually a really good lesson but from now on we will take that person to the house of a member haha.
Well thats it for this week! I love you all!!!

Week 77- Elder Gervais transfered



Hmmmm where to start? Well I guess with the random changes. So some unexpected transfers happened this week. I..... lost Elder Gervais.... :( :( :( I was super upset when I lost him. He was transfered to Boa Vista. I was only with him for 3 weeks! So now I am with my thirteenth companion. His name is Elder Ferreira and he is from Fogo. I didn´t know him there but we know a lot of the same people. He is on his third transfer and is waiting for a visa to go serve in Brasil.
Besides that we had a zone conference and they told us they don´t want us using the names of anyone here so I will be going back to being nameless here so stories will be confusing!!
Well we had a baptism for this week but something very interesting happened. Well we taught her about the law of chastity on saturday. Well some other intersting things happened in the lesson it was quite interesting but she accepted it. But she has a boyfriend. Well after the lesson he drove over because he drives a taxi. She said "uh oh that´s my boyfriend" She went over to talk to him and the conversation didn´t seem so happy. He started to drive away while she was still in the window more or less, and he drove away. She ran inside crying and we were like.... okay.... She came out a couple minutes later and we asked if everything was alright and if her boyfriend was okay. She said she just wanted to forget about him and never talk about him again. So that took care of the law of chastity i guess! She didn´t go to church though but we passed yesterday and she said it wouldn´t happen again and she is really excited to be baptized next week. She should be really strong though she has a lot of desire to follow the gospel and we always have a lot of male members with us when we teach her. Hahaha they all kind of fight over her It´s really funny actually.
There was a transmission of a meeting in the US for church this week. There were a ton of people and one of our families that we are teaching sent just the 11 year old kid to go to church with us. He couldn´t sit still and kept trying to take the phone out of my pocket to see the time and asked if we had games on it (we don´t). So in the middle of the meeting he decided he was bored and left to go home. Haha
I think that is about it for this week! I love you all!
