Austin' letter August 7, 2011

Família como vai!?

Everything sounds good back in the US. It was a good week. We led the mission in new investigators and lessons taught. My new comanion is Elder Biaggio. He is a brazilian but he looks like an american. haha He speaks english too which has helped me a ton with portuguese. I generaly understand almost everything now, but there is alot of things I just can´t say yet. For example, I asked one member what his work was and he said something about making ~./;.][lç~lfjasdhlds. I later learned that he said he makes lamp shades, there are just a ton of words to memorize.Thats awesome about Ben, tell him congrats for me. I still expect a invitation haha.


This week I have been thinking alot about baptism. Preach my gospel says that baptism is CENTRAL to our purpose, and for good cause to. It is really the door to  progression. When we do missionary work we need to be working to the waters of baptism. This next week I want you guys to make a family goal to baptize. Think of a family or friends we have and make a goal to have them baptized on a certain date. After make a action list with things that each member of the family could do to work to this goal.


Im thankful for my chance to serve here in Brasil. Im learning and progressing everyday. Please keep my invesigatores in your prayers that they will accept the batismal challenge.


Com Amor,
Elder Rollins
