Hey family! Thanksgiving here was sooooooo awesome! We got the privilege to hear from Russel M. Nelson which was incredible the spirit was so strong. Then we had our Thanksgiving dinner at lunch. Then did a service project after noon then had this really really really stupid Thanksgiving skit thing which must have been directed by people from Utah. I was ashamed just to be in the audience ;) but then we watched Ephraim's Rescue which was so spiritual and inspiring. Lately I've still been a little worried what's going to happen with my future and after I watched that movie I felt a calming peace and I realized and decided that I'm going to forget about my future for now and when I get back I'm going to rely 100% on the lord and let him direct my life because he can shape my life a 1000x better then I would be able to shape mine and hopefully now I can have 100% focus.

The language is going awesome! I can already teach the first three lessons and have a 30 minute talk/lesson with investigators. It is so incredible. Once we get into the lessons my mind is cleared and its like I've been speaking Portuguese for years and everything just comes to me. Sometimes I kinda fumble to make a sentence but it always comes out fine. My two teachers irmao pinho and irmao belchoir are seriously the best teachers ever. I love them to death! Everything is still incredible. I've said it before and I'll say it again 100x over! I love this work and there is no where else I could see myself besides right here. I love you all! Now some business stuff, kels, I NEED you to send me some red bulls and REGULAR coke!!!!!!!! Please do it ASAP this no caffeine Utah thing is ridiculous! Help a brother out! Also I loved all the stuff you sent mom,I traded all the ties last night for some ridiculously better ties because my companion is a freakin wizard. Like its scary! So I have all these sick ties now. But anyway I'll talk to you next week. and Kelsey I'm trusting you no matter what mom says send at least a 4 pack of Redbulls.
