Hey Família, so how is everyone doing in the wonderful weather up there? hahaha 100 freakin degrees!!!! I'm doing ok, it is raining alot here! In cabadelo they don't have a good drainage system, so if it starts to rain really hard the roads start to flood!! on saturday it started to rain about 4 in the morning and when we woke up at 6:30 the road in front of our house had more than a foot of water!!! and when it came time to leave at 10:30 it was still raining! so we rolled up our pants, carried our shoes and left wading through the water! in some places the water was almost over my knees!!! but about 2 blocks later we were able to put on our shoes again. our house sits in a bowl basically, so we get a ton of water. so this week i found out that cabedelo is surrounded by beach on three sides!!! and it is all pretty close to our house! in the early morning (when it's not raining) i can here the waves crashing on the beach! its pretty cool! So we already Baptized Tamara's little brother Bruno. he was my first baptize in this area. and on wednesday we will Baptize her Mom, Darçi! we are way excited! so you will receive a letter telling you a little bit more about Tamara and her dad. Basically he just likes to drink and spend time with his friends. but on saturday we had a family home evening at there house and we got the oppurtunity to teach him the first lesson!! it was a miracle!!! and he accepted to read and to pray!!!! Miracles are really happening in that house! in the past he chased the missionaries away, but now he is slowly accepting us! One day this guy will be baptized!!! I know it!! It would be so cool if I am here, but all in the lords time!! so we let the person getting baptized chose who will baptize them, and until now i haven't baptized anyone so we don't have a problem with the pants, but if i get the oppurtunity then i will use a jumpsuit from the church. and as for my other clothes, all is good. everything is holding up so don't worry about it. so i will send fotos of Bruno, tamara and the rain. and some of me and my comp with a caracater(?) that Tamara drew of us. its pretty funny! For the most part everything is going good. I am just waiting for this transfer to end because my comp is me. He doesn't really want to work (mainly because he is going home in a month and a half), so i am just doing what i can and putting up with him. it is really stressful and annoying and depressing because i want to work. i am happiest when we are working, but when my comp doesnt want to it makes everything so much harder. we could be baptize everyweek, but you have to work hard to do that in this area, and just one working doesn't get the job done. but all will work out. My biggest problem now is just staying focused and not let his lazyiness rub off on me. But i know the Lord will help me if i do my part. Send my love to the peterson family. tell them i am praying for them. I love you all so much and am so gratefull for all your love and support! Thanks for being an awesome family!! The church is True!!! Jesus Cristo is our Savior and this is his Church!! The Book of Mormon is the word of God!!! and Thomas S. Monson is the Profet of God!!! I love You all so much!!!! Your Son, Bro and Elder, Elder Wilson
