Cacapava do Sul, So Doidos Morem La (5-18-15)

Boa tarde guris!

Well this week was really good even though hardly anyone went to church this week.  It was good.  We had divisions with Elder's Soares and Parada in Cacapava, which is 2.5 hours from Cachoeira.  It was sweet.  The city is full of crazies.  I went with Elder Parada, who has a grand total of 4 months on the mission, and we contacted a guy and the conversation went like this:

Us - Do you know where you come from?
Gaucho - Yeah, Adao e Eva.  Why did God use a rib make Eva?
Us - Uhhh trying to think of an answer.
Gaucho - I know.
Us - Why?
Gaucho - Because if he used filet minon it would have been too expensive and Adao wouldn't have wanted her.  Bye (walks away).
Us - COMO ASSIM!?!?!?!? and dying of laughter

So yeah, just crazies in Cacapava.  But in our own area we found some sweet new investigators and some of them accepted to be baptized!!!  So that is always great, and we think that one of these couples are married legally!!!!!  I SURE HOPE SO!!!  If so it brings me hope that not all Brazilians don't like commitment. haha.

Well this may be my last email.  Next week (my last few days) will be super busy, so if I can't email ya'll know why.  But I just want all of ya'll to know that I have truly enjoyed my mission and that I have had countless spiritual experiences even if I haven't told all of them to ya'll.  And I have truly learned a lot from Louisiana and Brasil.  And I will come home changed.  I hope for the better haha.  But yeah, I love the mission.  Too bad it flew by so fast.

Well that's all from me.  I love ya'll!!!!  Stay classy!!!
