Serviço! 9 de Junho 2014

 This week has been full of meeting all the new members (Several of them know the other Elder Crapo who passed through this ward on his mission) and helping them out with service projects. We helped one member prune his hedges and clean up the yard, which was a nice dose of nostalgia knowing that the same thing was happening right about now back at home. We also helped another family move out of one house and into another.

     We're meeting all kinds of new investigators and are starting to work a lot with the many members here. This week, one lady told us she let us in because she saw us helping someone the other day when there was a small car accident, and we were signaling for the oncoming traffic to slow down and keep to the side. The day we showed up at her door, her husband who never wanted anything to do with religion called her from work, and told her he wanted to start going to church. She accepted our invitation to be baptized.

     Yesterday was our stake conference, and we received instruction from M. Russel Ballard and Richard G. Scott in a transmission from Salt Lake to the stakes in Espirito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo. That was pretty neat. I took some pictures of the area, and I'll be sending those to you!

      Have a great week, everyone! Love you, and I'll see you soon!

P.S. Yes. My companion is crazy.
