As always, another great week in Itu. One of the families in
our ward invited us over for a Thanksgiving Dinner which was really funny
because nobody here celebrates Thanksgiving. It was the first thanksgiving I've
been to where rice was a main dish, 'farofa' instead of stuffing, in 80 degree
weather without football but it was still awesome. 
We had a fun family home evening this week with a family of
recent-converts in a Member's home. They had already been to other family home
evenings before their baptism and there has always been a different game with
some sort of trick that you have to catch on to. We played one game where you
have to tap a pen on a book three times and say "Sou burro, sou burro, sou
burro" and if you don't do it just right everyone that knows the
game calls you a burro. Until you can get it right. It took several
people a while to catch on but it turned into a great time for everyone. We
also got them excited during the message to start searching out their Family
History as we told some stories from our own family history.
Primary Program
So this week was the primary program and it was really cool
because there were a lot of non-members there to attend, both broght by members
as well as our investigators. As always it was a special performance as it is
in the whole world but the coolest part was when one of our investigator's
daughters participated. The investigator had said that she would only be able
to stay for the first part of church but when her daughter went and practiced
with the other children she ended up staying for Sacrament Meeting as well. Her
daughter even got to say a few lines :)
I sure love being a missionary, it's a pleasure to serve all
the time. When you all get a chance you should go to christmas.mormon.org and watch the
Video "He is the Gift" and share it with everyone else. It's a great
chance to keep Christ in the picture this Christmas season.
Tenham uma boa semana!!
