gripe, baptisms and soccer shirts!

Hello family!
It is winter here in Brazil and will be cool up through
august. I was sick last week, with what they call "gripe" (the flu). I am starting to feel a little better now. My area here is a lot harder to find families to teach. I am speaking almost fluently Portuguese now so things go smooth when talking with investagators. My knees are giving me some troubles every now and then but doing pretty good. This week (August 3rd) our mission baptized 65 people! My companion,(Elder Young) and I baptized two this past week, this week was a good week. Well that is all for me on this side of the world! Love and miss you all Elder Turner
