Week 52 - One year down in Marambaia

Lunch appointment in Marambaia - where they treat the missionaries like royalty

Hello!

This week was good. I didn't have time this morning to look over my journal and the cool stuff that happened so I am trying to remember some things here at the cyber. But it was a good week.

On August 5th I will have one year in the mission!! That seems pretty crazy. Time really goes by fast. Seems like yesterday that I was leaving home! But I've had lots of adventures and I've got so many good memories from this past year. And this next year will be even better!

So finally the month of July is over and everyone is returning back to their normal lives. Here everyone is out of school during July so literally everyone travels. But now it will be better for missionary work.

We were able to find a lot of new people to teach this week. We got some help from the members and now we have 14 new investigators! So we are working really hard to bring these people to church this next week.

Transfers are this Sunday. When I went to the mission office a few weeks ago the President told me that one of us will be transferred because we have 6 months together!! I don't know who it will be but I am liking it here in the area!!

I didn't take any pictures this week, but I'll do better next week. A lady in the ward said she was posting pictures from a lunch appointment last week - so at least you should have a few. I haven't picked up my package yet but I'm planning to get it this week. 

Thats about it for this week. Love yall!!

Excerpt from Elder Steindorf's email for this week:

We had a quiet week, just teaching people, nothing different. We have a lot of good people now that we're teaching, and now things will get better for that over the month of vacation then they are going to have people who were already teaching coming from out of town and the members are also coming from out of town. This next Sunday is the Sunday of the transfer and comes changes ahead so let's close this week on top, full steam ahead.
