Well let’s start off with what happened this week! So Monday and Tuesday of this last week we just went and visited people to say good bye for Elder L Oliviera! It was really good and people were crying to see him leave! Well then Wednesday came and I would receive my new companion Named Elder R. Smith! Well it was hard to see Elder Oliviera leave not going to lie because it felt like we were just starting to work together and finally starting to really get down and work and make miracles here! It was weird I got home sick when he left I started really thinking about home a lot more and wanting to come back! Well I meet elder R Smith at this bus terminal with a member and well it was weird! HE IS A RED HEAD! You know red hair is my favorite! He is from Black Foot Idaho he is a little bit taller than me he wears glass is a little chubby around the center! But he is good I guess he is really strict! As I was trying to get to know him I was asking him all these questions trying to be a good host you know! Well he didn’t ask anything about me anything at all! So that was really weird and all! He is here to work that is what is good! He has been on his mission for 10 months so he has some time in the mission field! He is a band nerd! He plays the trombone I think that is how you spell it! And likes to listen to band music my favorite! hahahaha well some things that I have noticed that he does a little bit weird is that he looks at my stuff! That makes me a little bit worried so I have been really keeping tabs on what stuff looks like when I am not there! Um so one more thing he ate my food Thursday! I got in the shower and he took my last two eggs and pieces of bread and he ate them! I was pretty frustrated about that! Another thing he doesn’t like how I teach, he wants me to teach like him and his style is totally not my style of teaching but I will learn his style and put my style in with it I guess! like today we were practicing and he was basically having me say word for word what he says about the pre mortal life and ya it is good what he says but it is just not me so that is making it a little hard! But we worked really hard I destroyed him in contacts and the personal goals so that is good! I will just have to learn to love him right and his red hair! I wonder if I have been cursed to be stuck with people with red hair I don’t know we will have to see!! I watched general conference with all the American missionaries in a different room in our zone! It was really good it was fast! I really liked the priesthood session and the Sunday session so the times for us was 1 to 3 5 to 7 and then priesthood was 9 to 11 at night and we had to wake up the next morning at 6:30 so that was a little bit tough! But was really good! Well that is good to hear that all of you guys are doing well! I am doing fine just pray for me that I can have more patients with my companion and that I will be able to carry on! That is about it for Brazil nothing is really new here!" Did Elder Jackson pass by the house yet or no? He has stuff for you guys! Love you guys I can’t wait to talk to you guys on mother’s day! Take care love you guys!
I hope that all is well there! Thanks for everything please pray for me maybe visit the temple and put my name in the box that would really help I think! For other people that want letters back from me tell them sorry I have been really busy these past couple p days and not have had to write! Love you guys take care!
Love
Elder Gray
