Letter # 81 - New President!

I'm waiting any minute now to hear about a new president in the US especially after that law was passed about same sex marriage but , there is a new president in town in Bahia and he was called of God and his name is G. Paulo Bangerter! He came with his wife and 17 year old son Steven! He speaks well already because he served in portugal about 30 years ago and so its rusty but he's getting the hang of it. His wife and son on the other hand don't speak portuguese at all! It was kinda funny when we had the special conference this week to have their welcoming because Sister Bangerter wanted to talk so much and she was mixing up the few words that she know with a lot of spanish and so it was good to hear from her even after having been translated by President. They are great and I love them already! They have some big shoes to fill but, it will all work out! He has a lot of excitement and has a great new vision to bring to the mission for sure. We were all a little sad to say by to President and Sister Andrezzo but, it didn't leave much time for us to be renewed with fire in our bones for the next couple months. I can't wait to see how much the mission is going to grow it these next couple of months! I'm still excited to work and ready as ever to help more people get to know the true gospel where we cite the scripture for what they really are and where its taught with power and authority! I love the plan of salvation and I know that it will all work out!
