Hello Everyone! Things are going great here in Rondonopolis. Still working hard. We are teaching a Boy called Gustavo. He is 16. He would be baptised, but we have to see if his parents will allow him. His family is very Catholic. Another boy we are teaching is Isreal. He´s really excited, but every weekend he has to go out to his families farm, so going to church is difficult. We have a couple families we are teaching a well. Mauro and his family. Also Márcia and Marcos, a couple with two children. Daniel passed the sacrament this week. That was really cool to see. All the members went to the temple this week, so working with the members to do missionary work will be slightly difficult. Thats great that Janai is planning on going on a mission. The church changed the age to make it easier for women to serve missions. Ana Alice liked the Idea a lot. It will make it a lot easier for her to serve a mission and still go to college. Anyway. Glad to hear things are going well at home. Send a hug to Mac for me Caleb. I love you all. I hope you all have a great week. By the way. Christmas music starts this week for me. hahaha. I love you all. See yah in a couple years!
Marc
