Whats up everyone!

Just finished up a really good week!  We didn’t end up having the baptism for Kaio and Kawan because their Mom didn’t end up signing the form because she feels they aren’t ready to be baptized yet which was a little frustrating because we felt they were but the Mom likes us and the stuff we teach so were going to continue passing by there and talking with them.  But its all good.  We marked a baptism for this week Saturday for this girl named Arieli who is the sister of Adalberto who we baptized a few months ago so were excited about that and hope that will all go fine. 

We had a full week and got lots of stuff done.  We taught a lot and found some new people to teach which is always awesome.  We did a lot more contacts started doing this thing where you give your comp a random word that he somehow has to use in the contact which makes it pretty interesting and funny.  This lady who we have been teaching for about 5 weeks now finally came to church yesterday!  We were surprised but super happy.  Her name is Francisca and she’s 73 and we were talking to her last week and we visit her a lot and she likes talking with us but we found out that when she was younger she went through some crazy stuff which surprised us both but i hope we can baptize here.  She’s really scared that the people from her other church will stop talking to her and be mean to her if she decides to be baptize but we will continue working with her.

My comps thumb is still hurting from his pull up accident so we might have to go get it checked out.  Its been a super good week though!  I’m getting excited for the end of this month because we have a zone conference and then general conference is coming up soon also.  Were going to the city today to get some stuff which will be fun.  Its super hot outside.  I hope it starts raining a little more soon.  Sorry this email is pretty short this week.  Talk to you guys soon. Hope you all have a good week! i love you guys.

Tchau! love Elder Erickson
