Hello Family,
My companions name is Elder Impa. I forgot to tell you his name last time. It's been going great. We have some possibilities for baptism next week as well. The weather is hot during the day and a little cool at night. Our zone leader (Elder Balieiro) is in our same ward. He started a program called the heaven chain that integrates members with investigators and recent converts using family home evenings with a different member every night. I think it will be great. Elder Balieiro really knows a lot about missionary work.
This week we got to go to Primavera do Leste. They are going to open a branch there and we went to visit the families and knock doors to see how receptive they are. Just knocking a couple streets we found lots of non-members who had already been to church in other places, but were never baptized because they move to the city which doesn't have a branch yet. One went to church near New York City. Another old lady we found went to church a lot in Portugal. She wants to become a member of the church. Already read most of the Book of Mormon. It was a great experience.
I love you all. See yah in a couple years.
