Meus amados,
Unfortunately the baptism of Fábio and Samara didnt happen this past week but we are gonna do it tomorrow night or the night after. But thankfully everything went really well with the wedding. The first picture is of me and the happy couple the day of the wedding. It was funny.... we went over there early to get them Friday morning and Samara was still gone getting her hair done so we were talking to all the inlaws over there and they were like ´´you guys are ALL they ever talk about these days´´ and then one of them looked at my name tag and said ´´SHERWOOD... what a coincidence, that is the cat´s name´´ haha so yes, fábio and samara named their cat after me. things turned out great that day, the other 2 pictures are of me and them signing the documents at the wedding place. i love these guys they are like my best friends.
saturday we baptized a girl named camila that we have been working with, at first her mom wasnt letting her but we made good friends with them and her mom finally signed the form this week. camila is a 12 year old girl and she is hilarious, if you talked to her you would think she was 17. she has been coming to church for a while so she was very well prepared.
hopefully this week we will baptize a 16 year old guy named Leandro that we´ve been teaching, he is a super intelligent guy that has been really fun to teach cuz he is very interested. he came to church yesterday and loved it so if he comes this sunday again we will be able to baptize him. we did a strong commitment with him to read and pray about the book of mormon and he did and received a powerful answer, he explained that he heard and saw things that testified to him of the divinity of it. he didnt wanna explain exactly what it was which i understand cuz its sacred. but little miracles like this always happen especially with a lot of faith. i like this area a lot cuz its not a super poor one but there are SO MANY humble, good people waiting to be taught.

congratulations on the wedding. perhaps a career a la martin short is in order post mission.
I just love that Brad is so happy and smiley all the time. Swedish fish, my favorite too!!!
There is just some things that will never change about Bradley and you gotta love it!
