I love to read!

Well hello there everyone, How is everyone doing? Well, I can officially say it gets really hot here in Brazil. In Petropolis, we haven't had rain for the past week, a blessing and a curse. Well, I finished the Book of Mormon again, I love these scriptures: Moroni 9:6, Alma 29:9, Alma 26:12,16, Mosiah 3:16. I still like my missionary scripture 2 Nephi 22:2. I think I am going to start Jesus the Christ again or maybe the Book of Mormon! I haven't decided yet, they are both such great books. Yeah, Mom, do you remember before I left on my mission how I hated to read...now I can't stop! Still learning the language more and more each day. Here is a story for you, my companion Elder Dantas is native to Brazil, he was showing me some pictures and in one of them was Jeremy Clark! I couldn't believe it, so if you can call the Clarks and let them know or maybe get a hold of Jeremy, small world. Elder Dantas is really funny, we are always smiling in the street and really having a blast together. Thanks for all of your support, you don't know how much it means to me. Thanks again for everything. Love Elder Turner

BAPTISMS, BAPTISMS, BAPTISMS!!!!

I had two baptisms here in Petropolis, Rafaela Baitelli Sales Da Costa and Leonardo Guimaraes de Carvalho. I was so happy, I didn't baptize them but I did my part in helping them be prepared for this sunday the 15th. My companion, Elder Dantas ( he is from Bahia, Brazil) baptized Leonardo and a member/boyfriend baptized Rafaela. It was so great! We are trying to teach new people but carnival is starting this week so it will be really hard:) D&C 88 is a great section, read up! Para Bems!!! (Woot Woot!!!) Love you all and miss you always
