This week was great we worked hard as always and we achieved the results we hoped for. W. was baptized this saturday and on the day of his birthday aswell. He was super prepared and confident in his decision and even studied outside of our lessons, one day we walked in on him reading the teachings of the church presidents book while waiting for us to arrive at our appt. After his baptism, his girlfriend brought out a cake with blue frosting that turned the mouths of everyone who ate it blue. It went really well. We had a "Mission Tour" this week which Élder Joaquin E. Costa of the seventy visited and had a conference with him. It was pretty cool, we got to talk/converse with him and to shake his hand. It was basically a conference with the whole mission with the exception of 2 zones that had their own conference. I forgot to take pictures until the end which was the selfie that I attatched. This week we had a zone T-shirt made with our names and the symbols of baptism and confirmation on the sleeves, they turned out cool but the sizes of brazil are really small, its a good thing I'm slim or it wouldn't have worked out, but for the rest of the zone....good luck. We keep getting urged to read the technology safety booklet and the online course that the church has by the mission, so I've started to wonder if we will be getting tablets or something soon, but I doubt it because theft of anything over the value of $50 is common. I'm pretty good though with my plastic watch and normal looking stuff, if I had any kind of bling or a really nice item it would make me a target for sure. But weel will see. Not much more to say/mention.
Love you, until next week!
