"Wherefore, my beloved brethren, I know that if ye shall follow the Son, with full purpose of heart, acting no hypocrisy and no deception before God, but with real intent, repenting of your sins, witnessing unto the Father that you are willing to take upon you the name of Christ, by baptism--yea, by following your Lord and your Savior down into the water, according to his word, behold, then shall ye receive the Holy Ghost; yea, then cometh the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost; and then can ye speak with the tongue of angels, and shout praises unto the Holy One of Israel." 2 Nephi 31:13

Week 7

Hello! To say Hi/Hello in portuguese we usually say "oi" or "olá" but we also say "tudo bem?" and the proper response is "tudo bem!" and then you ask it back by saying "tudo bem?" and they reply "tude bem!" It's really repetitivie and doesn't translate back into english because it means 'all good' but oh well!
I went proselyting yesterday! It was super hot (almost 100) and sunny with absolutly no wind! and I just cut my hair again so I was afraid I would get completely fried, but I didn't!! The best part about the day was that I could actually understand what all the people were saying to me! Elder Gregory and I gave out five Livros de Mórmon, and made sure they knew how to contact the missionaries that are actually teaching in this area of São Paulo. Its crazy to see how I am adjusting to the heat, now when we go into our class room that is like 75 degrees feels so nice and cool! Next Tuesday (12/18) I leave for Londrina and I don't know exactly when I get to email again, so I'd like to wish you all a very heppy holiday season! Feliz natal! Enjoy the snow and hot chocolate and I'll catch some sun for each of you.
Tchau!
Elder Haws
