May 16, 2011 Letter

Dear Family,

All is well here in Brazil. Well life is good here. Me and Elder Paiva have both been a little sick this week. So that's been a little tough. But we´re both getting better.

I finally get to play soccer! President invited our zone to play with him today because last transfer our zone(and district..) had the most baptisms. So today we get to go have lunch at presidents house, and play soccer and stuff with him. It'll be great.

Well, this week has been a little rough in the teaching... The other elders asked president to transfer them because "nothing was happening". So now, me and Elder Paiva are covering both wards. It´s tough. Its like opening an area. We have no references, dont know any members.... Its just tough. But we're doing everything we can. We taught a cool lesson in Setubal I yesterday though. The consol? for the United States and Pernambuco lives there. So we went to his house, which is super amazing. It's really beautiful. Wow. The best building i've been in. But they had friends, the teacher of their daughter. Her and her fiance were both really interested. Im excited for the opportunity to teach and share the gospel with that cool couple. But one thing that bugged me was the family of the consol is going on vacation this week and wont be there on Sunday. So the wife told our investigators to not go to church this sunday, but wait till they get back.... Who tells someone not to go to church!?!?!?! Especially someone you're teaching the gospel?!?! UGH!! BUT, they said they'd come. I really hope they do.

Love you all super much,

Elder Tracy
