Well sounds like you guys are having lots of fun at home =]
So things are moving right along here. Transfers was pretty crazy. The four visa waiters left, as did Elder Sieverts and Elder Collette (the zone leaders). I've got two new companions, Elder Bodily (from Boise) and Elder Gneiting (pronounced Knighting, from Aberdeen Idaho). They're both going to the Victoria mission (which is for the state of Espirito Santo, just north of Rio).
So we've got exciting news. Tania and Edilberto, who have been investigators for a LONG time (since before I got here), and they both accepted baptism last week. We also went and taught Isabella for the first time (because she lives so far away), and she's going to be baptized Sunday the 26 =] So we're REALLY excited! Fatima's son got sick so she wasn't able to go to church on Sunday, but we went and taught a really good lesson with her before Sunday. So things are still going really well with her =]
During transfers, Elder Nickel (from South Jordan) also came to the area, and Elder Mundt and Elder Vitorio stayed. Elder Blum is training Elder Herzog (from Sandy). So we've got a grand total of 8 elders, which is much better than the 11 we had before. Super great.
Let's see, other stuff that's happened... Since the zone leaders are gone, our miles were cut. With the van we drive, we're only allowed to drive a certain number of miles per month, and we've got only a little over 2/3 what we had before. So boy, we might have a bit of a tough time until the end of December staying under on miles. But we'll make it work.
Hope everything's great at home! Sorry I don't have too much to write... we're going to be pressed for time this p-day. Love you guys so much! I'll be on for another half an hour, so shoot me back an email with any questions!
Love you all!
