Olá!

I forgot that it was even the week of Halloween, that means that Dan should be home already. I loved the stuff that was in the package, but I haven't opened nearly anything yet. I ate those macadamia nuts which were heavenly. And we haven't opened the syrups yet. Everything is still waiting for Christmas, don't worry.
Is Sara sending the rubber CTR rings? Every one here is wanting them.

I don't think every mission has the same problems that we have. Our mission has a reputation as one of the least obedient in the world hahaha. So... president is starting to crack down. At the transfer he spoke very seriously and very calmly about the problems that are happening and that if people didn't want to keep the rules they could ask to leave. (makes it easier for him)

You can choose to delete the story or send it to everyone it doesn't matter. But, there was an elder that met a girl and started to teach her. She was 25 or something like that, and turns out that she was married. The elder wasn't just teaching her though, but always talking to her on the phone, sending emails to her and the husband found out. He went looking for this elder with a gun wanting to kill him. He had to run away and was placed in the middle of nowhere until president could get permission to send him home. He says that he wasn't doing anything, but the guy had to have a reason to want to find him and kill him. It was a big confusion, and it was his last transfer....

Did the sharks season really get cancelled!!!!!??? hahahahaha that is hilarious. Sad for you guys but funny. That's called Karma. You wait for me to leave the country to buy season tickets.

The office is good, and we help the entire mission instead of all the people that we would usually help on the street. I said to Steve that we will baptize a man this week, next week we will baptize the receptionist to the office, the week after the receptionsist's sister and after that a young man that has being going to church for a year. It is a miracle, but we are being able to teach all of this people. One is super easy because we see her every day and she decided to go to church with us and loved it. Anyway, the work is going well in the office and as a missionary. Hopefully we can keep it up!

Also, this last week all of the new missionaries got here. Strange to think back to my first week. I called some of them today to see how they were doing, the only one that had a few problems was the American sister. She was culture shocked and feels like she cant contribute to anything. She is better now though. It is only the first week.

Anyway, love you all and hope you have a good week!
