Spencer's email - 6/6/11

Hey Family!!

Phew another week already past!!! and I am sorry i didnt tell you guys that transfers were today, i forgot... But i do have something very very important to say...

Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Dad! Happy Birthday to you!!! Woooo!!! I love you! How exciting!! You are how old?? whoosh, much be getting up there... Do you feel older?? haha!!

Well this week was good, we worked hard! paranoá was tough. but it was really good i learned a lot! But like i said we had transfers today and i got transfered, so now i am in Planaltina do DF because there is also a Planaltina in goias so i am still in the DF. But it seems like it´ll be good! But the sad part is Elder Denby isnt my comp anymore. He stayed there and is training a newbee! woah! so i am here with my new companion Elder Morris. Yes an american, and the crazy thing is he is taller than me!! he is giant! he said he is 6´4" but i think taller. So that´ll be funny. i already stuck out enough with one tall american now 2?!? woah! anyway he only has 2 more transfers left but i think it´ll be good. so yeah i had to say goodbye to Paranoá but i took some pictures mom, so ill send them next week, i still havent unpacked my bags so i gotta do that. Um but i learned a good lesson this week. something that i will apply for the rest of my mission. Elder denby and i decided that we wanted to do 100 contacts in one day for our dupla (i do not know the word for that... duple?... companionship) for us both. wow i suck at english... anyway. and we did and we had alto of success! so what i learned, is the minimum for the mission is 10 a day. not very much. so that is a normal missionary. buut when we make an effort, a conscious effort to do the most you can, that is when God will bless you more than normal. so i plan to do that everyday. and that was super good. so yeah. Buuut other news, remember that man that we found last week that like had alot of problems and went to church by himself? well he got in a fight with his girlfriend and went and drank and was gone for like 3 days. so the baptism fell. but he definitely wants to continue and he is not going to do that again. so that is really good! he should be baptized this sunday! crazy huh?? i wasnt happy. But other than that we found some really good people, and it was going good haha!! but now i am here! we will see how it goes!! com certeza ótimo! well i love you guys!! thats basically the news for the week!! have a great week and the church is true!! So never stop going! Invite people. Give references to the missionaries (they love that, trust me) and do all you can to be an example!
