So, I was transfered to beautiful Paulínia, São Paulo. I am opening a new area with Elder Jesus (hence the subject line, neh). He's from São Paulo capitol and arrived in the mission last week.
Well, other than that, we've been hitting the grind harder than ever. The hardest part about opening an area is that youhave nothing, know no one, and that means you pretty much stay in the street all day, just trying to talk to one person.
Saturday night, I was feeling a little rough, we had only been able to teach one time the whole week and I was like, hey Jesus (talking to my companion) what we gonna do, we're not gonna have anyone at church, how can we get at least one?
And Jesus, in his infinitely wise words, was like, let's leave it to the big guy, we've done our part this week.
So I was like, chill
And on Sunday, we had a record seven people at church, just random people or people that listened to us for 30 seconds on the street.
So, I feel like I like working with Jesus (and I like working with my companion as well) and it's always good to know that He's here walking by my side (and now both sides right) and that He participates in His work on the Earth.
Love you guys, I'll try to take a picture of Elder Jesus, he's a good looking guy.
Love,
Elder Peter
I’m caught up on all the blog posting and this week’s letter to Porter. This will be a transfer he has waited for, but been valiant in for some time. His Mission President has placed great trust in Elder Schenewark, and knew the situation prior to asking him to fulfill this exact assignment. I told him in a note last week his next Ward would likely contain the Mission President, Temple President and Stake President and be an overactive Ward. All will be well, he is a faithful Elder in Israel. Bro. Bach
