It's raining, it's pouring!

Torrential rains. Well, we are feeling the effects of what once was hurricane Gordon that moved between the Açores and now is a tropical storm that is losing all of its moisture over the north of Portugal. Luckily today is p-day and we get to stay in our apartment during the afternoon and write letters with a good pot of hot soup. (Well, it would be a wonderful pot if there was a way of reproducing Mom's magical tomato soup)

Oi Missionário meu! Eu estava a ler uma boa citação de Presidente Hinckley e ele disse: Estás feliz? Diga a tua cara! Eu gostei emenso e escrevi no planeamento para fazer-me lembrar sempre de sorrir. Ainda quando eu não me sinto como sorrir, eu lembro-me que todas as pessoas estão a me ver e estão a pensar sobre mim como representante de Jesus Cristo e então faço um esforço maior pensar em coisas mais positivas e ajuda-me sorrir. Também as vezes eu sorro só porque eu não estava e agora e tipo um jogo para mim. Faz muito bem e faz-me mais feliz. Já recebeste a minha cara que mandei para lá? Tem algumas boas ideas em trabalhar com o ramo.

Well, yep, not much to report. The work is going well and we are going to have a fun activity this Friday to help our investigators feel comfortable with the members and it is also a great opportunity to bring friends. Anyhow, we're really excited and it should be great. We have been having some great experiences with our teaching and things are really going well. It is hard to believe that fall is already here. the kids are already back in school, the hot days are over, the rain has arrived, and September is almost gone. Our lives passed as it were a dream....(a good one in this case) Yep, and that's it besides saying that I love you all so much and hope all is going well.
