Baptism of Hercules

meus amados...


transfers were last night/this morning and elder amarante was transferred to Natal, where i have been wanting to go, and i am staying here in Tibirí. and who would have guessed it: i am training AGAIN. not too sure on all the details and i don't even know yet if he´s american or brazilian but he is coming fresh from the CTM and it is a funny coincidence cuz i told my comp the other day that it was weird that i had trained twice and would never have the patience to do it again. i guess this will be an adventure...

not much else, we baptized 12 year old HERCULES this week... he actually goes by Cleitone but his real first name is Hercules and i thought it was funny so that's what i call him. this kid is an elect. he has a real desire to serve the lord and i couldn't believe he was only 12- i thought he was like 15. he is the cousin of a member we met a started teaching a few weeks ago and baptized him sunday.

everything else i will write about next monday when we finally have p-day normal and will be a lot less crazy than today. much love

oh, brad . . . "the fresh prince".
he cracks me up.
and the reason he keeps training is because he is obviously so fabulous at it.
keep up the good work, elder sherwood.
