Hello family! It was wonderful to hear from you all. Everryone wrote me a letter. hahaha It was great to hear from you all.
Everything here is going great. So we went to Mark Marcos´wedding last week. Everyone was all worried about his documents being right that no one took the time to look at his wife, Vanessa´s documents. They were not up to date and we could not mark the wedding. :( but the Branch President said that the branch will still help with everything. Which is just fantastic. So we are working on getting both of their documents here. Wedding in February. :)
Nicanor. He is awesome. He wasn´t able to go to church on Sunday because he had to go to Curitiba. His date to be baptized also fell because we found out that he lives with his ex-wife and they are not legally married. He is planning on moving out, in fact the government already has a place for him, he´s just waiting for them to give him the keys. He is smoking and drinking coffee but he is stopping with the smoking. Which is good and everyday drinking less and less coffee. Which is great.
Yesterday, we were able to teach this girl that we have been wanting to teach for a long time. Her brother is a returned missionary and lives in Curitiba. We taught her the first lesson and she really enjoyed it. Our only problem is that we never can find her. She is always out and about. So our next goal is getting her to church.
Aparacida and Valéria ALMOST came to church but in the last second, sent a message saying they weren´t able to go. Oh, but they will. We taught their family the Plan of Salvation yesterday and it was great. They loved it and asked some great questions.
We are getting a new ward mission leader or new branch mission leader. He is awesome. It´s not official so I can't say it, but let´s just say he is awesome and he already has a family for us to teach! I am just so excited I can't stand it.
Things are really picking up here in 4 Barras. We are getting a good group of people. Now we just need to baptize.
It was wonderful to hear that my old friends are getting ready to go on missions now. It´ll help them so much. I love you all so much and I am so thankful for the prayers and support. I can feel them! I have to go because the Branch President´s wife is gonna cut our hair! yay!!! I love you all so much and don´t stop believing!!!
com amor,
Elder Nathan Palmer Askins
