Week 87 (June 30)

Once again, a really fast week! But this time it was a week that ended in success!

We baptized a woman named Magda this Saturday night!

Our mission broke our previous record and baptized 192 people this month!

This week we´re going to have zone conference and we´ll probably get to watch the movie ´´Ephraim's Rescue´´. We also got 1 other bonus that can't tell you guys about! But it was really cool!

Elder Jacson and I are just talking to lots of people on the streets and we´ve got a teaching pool of like 7 GREAT people and then like 5-6 others that accept or visits but aren't nearly as interested.

We need to rry and talk to more people each week. It's kind of hard in this area that we are working in. There is nobody on the streets ever. But when we do get find people they are usually pretty good investigators.

I love you all and thank you for our support and love and prayers.

Package Mailing Instructions:

DO NOT send anything by: FedEx, DHL, UPS, etc. The mission cannot accept them and your missionary will have to pay, sometimes hundreds of dollars, to get them out of the customs office, often more than the total cost of the items sent.

The best way to send packages to your missionary is to use a PRIORITY MAIL INTERNATIONAL envelope obtained at any U.S. Post Office. The flat rate envelope is about $12.00 for up to 4 obs. Packages arrive in Brazil fairly quickly and safely in about 3-4 weeks. Priority boxes also work well but are more expensive to send.

Please use padded envelopes when sending CDs, thumb drives, or other small items. These items, when placed in a flat envelope, damage postal equipment and can be damaged during transit.

Merchandise: Clothing, food products, and merchandise should be sent direct to the mission office address. However, clothing or other dutiable merchandise often does not reach its intended destination or, if it does arrive, may be subject to customs duties that the missionary will not be prepared to pay. Small packages of nominal value may be sent through the United States Postal Service. Photographs and tapes may be included in these packages. Merchandise sent through a commercial mail carrier is extremely expensive and may be subject to customs duties, but this is the best way to send credit or debit cards.
