Another Week of the Holy Work

Dearest Dear Ones,
Time is a cruel master that likes to pass by too quickly, and this last week has been no exception. It seems like yesterday that I was in Goiânia renewing my visa, but now we´re on the fourth week of the transfer.
Some of the exciting stuff that has happened this week:
We have been working with a high set of goals for about the last eight months or so, but now we have reached several, which means that its time to set new goals. President also shared some of the rewards for meeting those goals. All companionships that baptize six in the month of June get to go to Goiânia for a festa Junina, which is a basically a corn festival in June. Since Elder De Abreu and I baptized six last week, we´ll be going to Goiânia next week for P-day.
President Prieto came to Uberaba to talk about some of these goals. President also came to talk about the strength of our teaching. We reviewed the lessons and practiced some of the principles. We quickly saw that we had a lot of techniques, but we lacked on teaching the heart of the doctrine. We were all dry rub and no steak. Now we´ve made some plans and now we´re going to be better. We Shall Baptize the World! or at least Uberaba.
Thursday we started up our English class again. This time I´m a little more confident in the success we´ll have. The majority of our class is recent converts, but we´ve had a lot of investigators that have said they´d come.
As we have a bunch of recent converts that are seminary age, we have they the responsibility to take them to seminary for the first time. So Saturday we watched seminary and had the privilege to eat the snack with the rest of the kids.
Sunday was ward conference and the stake brought the stake choir with them. Since we meet in a rented house, it was a little tough to fit everyone in together. After church, we had planned to go on splits with the members , but lunch was late and things didn´t work out. Our young man recent convert said he wanted to make visits with us, so he grabbed a tie and he spent the whole day teaching with us. He´s going to be such a great missionary in a year and a half.
That´s about all I have for this week.
Read Jacob 5!
Love,
Elder David Short
