what up USA......so i arrived to check my emails today and i saw that none of my flippin´ emails from last week got sent! wow, myldsmail.net is just the greatest excuse for an email system, i´m glad it always works really well. :) i was pretty upset but luckily they were saved in my inbox. so i will re-send all of them, including the big one here below: (post under this)

Just to give a quick update from this week, things are going really well with elder gimenez, we are working really hard and had some investigators in church and i am almost sure we are gonna baptize johnathus this week, a 19 year old guy who likes to party, (at least he used to) and Iolanda, the mom of a girl who is coming back to church we have been working with. i am really excited for Iolanda. we have been helping her receive an answer to prayer about the livro de mórmon and she finally did so it will be a great baptism. we are starting to cut out camilla, usually we would to it a lot sooner but she is still going to church and so is her mom so we´ll see. also we finally got to teach paulo again this week and lets just say it was a 3 hour deep-doctrinal dispute, quite interesting but he is a very sinere man. but he is really wealthy, and it was really awkward cuz as we were leaving his big house the other night i went to shake his wife´s hand and she went in and tried to kiss me. i turned my head and she barely brisked my face, then i pulled away and said that i wasnt allowed and it was very very awkward, cuz she is really young and really pretty. my comp was just laughing and i thought paulo was gonna murder me for almost kissing his wife cuz he is a very big man but he was just laughing as well. we have lots of funny things like this happen that i wish i always had more time to tell but i gotta run.
até mais!
