OI,
Hi everyone!
So this week was good. Nothing really new happened, it rained for 6 days straight never stopping that was really annoying because no one lets you in when its raining or hears you when you call them! (because no has door bells)
We played soccer today and it was it got a little rough but not too bad.
The weather here is pretty awesome. It's in the 20’s here so that’s awesome! Not hot or cold!
Yeah so I’m all peachy here, hahaha so funny story well not really funny story something that just made me feel really good about my portuguese. So the first new group of Americas showed up here in our mission since me, and they are lost!!!! lol, It was the same when I first arrived. I know I had at zone conference it was really awesome because I got to see how far I’ve come with my portuguese!
Well other then that I mailed home some pictures, if you didn’t get them sorry ask mom for them.
Love steven

HI Family,
So how’s it going for everyone up there in America?
So today we went to the aquarium, and I must say after going to the aquarium in Atlanta(the largest in the world or so I’ve been told) this one really sucked lol…..
My New comp. is pretty good I like him. All is well for us here in Humaitá São Vicente.
Its gotten pretty nice outside lately, like its about 90 during the day, and 60 at night so that’s good to sleep….
Oh so yeah I’m feeling left out here Carrie and Laurie I mean I know I’m in Brazil but I have had a birthday too, I mean Chris got a shout out and I didn’t lol, actually I don’t even care I thought I would just give you a hard time.
I Found so some scriptures I would like to share with yall
ALMA 10:4- If Ron Bergandy had a Scripture it would be this one, just read it
ALMA 10:6- its kind of Strech but I read it on the 4th of july and so yeah that’s way

Ola!
This week was pretty much wet, it didn't stop raining, (and it hasn't) so that is a lot of fun. The good news is my shoes are done. I can go pick them up tomorrow (i had to replace the sole on them as to the fact it had holes everywhere) So I'm pretty excited about that.
Apparently there is some kind of soccer cup right now and Brazil and the US will play and everyone keeps asking me if the US will win, and what I think is it's really annoying, so it sounds like next summer its going to be really hard.
Other then that all things are great here!

Oi!
Hello so this week has been a pretty good one, busy and lots of things happen!
So I got to have a funny Saturday morning. A member of our ward, well we were at his house and he asked randomly “hey elder do you know anything about cars? I said a little why? He said my car won't start.” It was just really funny the way he said it, so I looked at the car, and it looked like the starter was dead, so we tested it and it was. So I said. "hey your starter is dead". (random note they call it the small motor starter lol) then he asks do you know how to replace it? I said well I’ve done it before but not on your car, I can help you if you would like. Well long story short I got to replace a Starter Saturday morning and a plastic radiator house that he broke “trying to help” it was actually a lot of fun. (on a side note a “Alan Linford tool box” is better equipped then what I got to work with”)
It also rained a lot which was well... “wet” We found this really great family, all but their 12 year old son are baptized, but they are inactive, sealed in the temple, he was in the branch presidency 4 years ago, and she was Relief society pres. Its so crazy to think about it they all have testimony’s just lack the want or motivation to return to church (aka get up Sunday morning) and so Saturday when we talked to them I told them if they didn’t answer us when we came Sunday morning I was coming into the house, they said that was okay. So Sunday morning when they did not wake up to us knocking at their gate I jumped the gate and knocked on everyone’s window and woke them up, and they all went to church, and they weren’t even mad but thought I was joking however. It was really funny my companion was mad at me... because well he is as stubborn as me and he just lets stuff like that go, but they promised they would be up and if they weren’t I could do anything to wake them up. So it was really fun to wake them up and bring them to church just a few more weeks.
I really love the area I’m in but there is just a couple of things I don’t like about it.
1. Just about every house has an inactive member. Our ward list is 20 pages long with like 140 active people……
That’s about it well I have to go now were going to go to this weird thing in down town (my companion wants to go so whatever!)
