I thought id add a nice picture of macumba (voodoo) with this weeks email. Its a lovely dead goat head, legs and tail. They leave offerings at the crosses in roads. Its black magic its evil and I wont delve much further into it because brasil is 100% the safest country ever! (but really, I just wont go to there "candy for all children for free" open houses)
We had a few hot days this week. Hot then the next day cold with the nasty misty rain. But all in all it hasnt been too bad yet. I am still prepping myself for the worst. Im like my grandma, i dont like being hot!
There isnt much news to report today but today is my 6 month mark! I cant believe Ive been on a mission for 6 months, I cant believe I am 1/3 of the way through. I cant believe I can speak portuguese! All in ll its a pretty amazing life im living right now. Never ever easy and I often find myself just wanting to be exploring folsom lake or studying but what a great opportunity I have been given!
We had a lot of fun with our ward this weeend and of course lots of fun includes lots of references from ward members to visit.
There is a transfer next week and I am kind of crossing my fingers to be transferred. 4 months is a bit of a while to be in once place. But I know whatever happens is for the best.
and im out of time. sorry! i hope the photos make up for my lack of letter! the church is true!
I love you
kensie
