Food

"Pictures of food, because who doesn't love food?" - Elder Iverson

And we learned that the cat a dog poster is a gift from Helena Pinheros, their friendly neighbor so they hung it in her honor.

Halloween Costumes

Halloween was great, we took some killer photos. For my costume I was Elder Jacobson and he was me. Good times. I love my comp and we joke a lot, but not when we need to be serious. :) 

Work on the Streets of São Paulo

This week we ran into a atheist.  I bore testimony to him (he said he loved his family) about how he could have a forever family, and if nothing more than wanting to live with your family forever, could you not believe in God? and still he was persistent. Got to love him.

We did find a family that lives in a house, in a gated community, that had a motorcycle escort us to the door of the house, which the house had personal security also. It was kind of nuts. But we are teaching them now, and it is good to find new people to teach. This family lives South East of the temple, and is a long old walk to their house.

Our best neighbor moved yesterday, and it is sad. She would always give us food, and shampoo, and more food, and bags, and cake, and ice cream. Oh, I will miss her. But all is well. 

Also speaking about cake, we had lunch and the member yesterday gave us cake.  Later we past a homeless person, so I thought, I need to give this to him. And so, there is a homeless man with some great tasting bolo. :) 

I started the book Jesus the Christ, and it is life changing. Everyone needs to read this book. You learn more about our Savior and the things he does for us and the incredible love he has for us.  

So, everyone read the Jesus the Christ, it is difficult to start, but after you will be grateful for the knowledge you learned.

Betty Crocker made it to Brazil!

Also, E Davies, other new missionary. We were comps for one day. That was scary. But we did well. 

Yes Betty Crocker arrived in Brazil :) haha, those brownies you could put those on a billboard. Those suckers are fine !!!!:)

Missionary Barbers!

Also, we cut our own hair!! Do you like it?  :) haha it was a fun experiecne to do. I have never cut anyone's hair before.

  And his hair looks pretty darn good if I say so :) 

Pday Fun!

We went last Pday to a street called 25 de Março. Yes the whole name is strange, I know. But there we bought ties and a lot, 10 for 50 reais. That was a steal and I also learned to tie a new tie. Hope you all like it. Me and comp bought one tie the same and wore it to District Meeting. It was funny. But maybe that’s just me. :)

Time for Lunch! Chicken Nuggets anyone!  I think these two have way too much fun together. And the cat and dog poster definitely needs some explaining.....

Friends in the Gospel

It's a beautiful thing, when people you don't even know think of you and show their love for you.  This photo came moments after an unknown contact from São Paulo messaged me on Facebook.  Jace had been in their home for a "snack" as she stated and they thought I would love to see a photo of him on this Sunday evening.  They were right and I am ever amazed and grateful for the love our Heavenly Father has for each of us and how the promptings of the spirit to do simple acts of kindness testify that he is real and that he loves his children where ever they are.

Thank you to my sister and brother in São Paulo for their thoughtfulness and for listening to the spirit.  You made my day!
