So where do we start?? Let’s start off from last Monday I had to go to Curitiba to get my son! Well he was going to come on Tuesday. But it was super hard to say goodbye to elder Morris we had so much fun together. Well that Monday afternoon I had to go to a training thing at the president’s house about the new trainers and how to train it was actually really good I liked it a lot. He really made you feel like you were called from Heavenly Father to teach these new missionaries how to work I really liked it! So Tuesday they got here like after lunch time and we were waiting for them and we made like a tunnel for them to walk through and all that special stuff! SO they named off who would be with who, I got to me and my stomach just dropped I was like alright who is it going to be?? And I got put together with Elder Monteiro he is from Minias Grerais it’s up there above Sao Paulo! He is super cool we actually get a long very well together well we got back Tuesday night at 9. So we stayed in our house. But it was super cool because the rest of the week we really went at it! you know when you have worked hard when you both come home hurry and plan for the next day and go to bed cuz you are so tired! This week really found some really good people to teach and only thing that is holding these people back from being baptized is that no one is married here and it cost a ton to marry people down here! I was thinking about how my trainer trained me and I was like well I can’t do anything like that because if I do then my companion will just talk bad about me for the rest of my mission! It is really good he has had told me a lot of things, Like the other day it was super hot and he was like Elder Gray I am missing my house and my family and my girlfriend! And I was like seriously! And he was like yah! SO I was like let’s go get some ice cream and talk it over. He really seemed to like that. It is super good because he looks at how I am doing things then he goes and does it the same way it’s really funny but I kind of like it! I had to teach him how to wash his clothes this morning and how to use an iron! I felt such like a mom in that moment! Hahahaha oh funny things of the mission! So we could be having a crappy day and it could be raining and he looks at me like he is tired and things aren’t fun and I just tell him that today is a good day something good will happen and he changes him self around and gets all excited again so that is good! So he told me that he is a professional cello player and that he plays like 5 other instruments fluently! So he is like a master at the arts we can say. It was funny he was like Elder Gray I played American football and I bet I can tackle you to the ground.... I was like thinking you got to be kidding me he looks like he is about 145 pounds and he wants to hit me. So I told him when we get home you can try, and when we got home I looked at his pictures and what do you know he has pictures of him playing American football I was like oh my gosh that is super cool and he was like (LETS GO) in English and I told him look if you get hurt its not my fault he was like I wont get hurt I am a man and saying a lot of other stuff. so we went he comes barreling down at me and I was thinking if we hit heads its going to hurt so I got lower than him and he hit me and then just fell over, hahahaha everyone in the house was just laughing it was really funny I wish that we would have got in on video but we didn’t! Hahaha he hasn’t challenged me to anything lately so I think he has learned his lesson! Hahaha this week has been really good! Well I love you guys its good to hear that you guys are doing good. LOVE you guys take care.
Love, Elder Gray
