Hello family!
This week was much better when it comes to health and everything. So while we were all sick, we called Sister Tavares and the doctor of the mission. They told us that we had a virus or something we ate was bad, and they said we couldn´t leave the house for a few days...so Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday we stayed in the house all day! It SUCKED! But the Lord will always bless us through trials!
We worked a lot this last week and found some great families that moved to our area from another area here in Apucarana, so now we are working with them and some other of our investigators. This last week we baptized Edineia, who is Bruno´s (boy we baptized last week) mom. Also we confirmed Bruno. They are super strong and really awesome. Even though I am here in a different country with different types of people, I can really feel the love for them as brothers and sisters. This week now has made 3 weeks in a row baptizing for Elder Millett and I and we are now "baptizers" of the mission! So the work is going really good and I´m doing the best I can to do the things I´m here to do! And work for the Lord!
It looks like you guys had an awesome week. I can't believe you sat by Donny on the plane dad! I bet that killed you mom ha ha! And yeah, the Olympics are on at most places we go so that's pretty cool. Who is winning in the gold medal count??? How is the U.S. in basketball??? Keep continuing to have fun back home and before you know it I´ll be back because time is flying now!!!
Dad, keep the stories from the mission coming! Especially baptisms! Also, what other positions did you have, callings, all that good stuff. Keep the pictures coming too!
Well, that's about it this week, work, eat, sleep, and BAPTIZE! I hope you guys have an awesome week!! Tell Alec to stop using those red shorts! They´re my favorite article of clothing ha ha. Tell the boys and the pep hi for me. Also could you send more pictures for me to put on my camera and print out here to show people. Me with friends, all that good stuff. Well I love you guys tons and pray for you all the time. Just know I´m still learning A TON and it's great here. We were sick, Elder Carrell is feeling a little better, but things are good now so don´t worry!
Love you tons!
Elder Halpin
