Um grande abraco (a big hug)

May 17, 2010

Hello, well my head is still hurting, but it is doing a lot better now. I have headaches every now and then but the doctor said that is normal for the next couple days. The funny thing is that I don't remember anything, just waking up in the hospital. I went in to the hospital on Tuesday and left on Saturday. This week was good my companion was able to baptize our investigator without me. I also have two black eyes from my fall, I look pretty funny. Hey Stephen, I saw the pictures of you Eagle Project, nice work bro. I am proud of you for going to church. Love you and miss you

Hey there Mom, I am writing this email on the asking of my Mission President. On Tuesday I was playing soccer and slipped and hit my head. I had to go to the hospital, but don't worry mom everything ok, I already did all the exams and did all the medication necessary...everything is A OK Don't worry I'm having a blast here on the mission like always. You know your son, always trying to be the "bright" one in the group. Love you Mom

April letters

Hello, well transfers were last week, I was transferred to a place called Niteroi. It is actually the place that got most damaged by the rain here in Rio, so everything is dirty and muddy still. I was also called as the Zone Leader, more responsibilities, but many blessings. This week went well, my new companion Elder Gardasz and I baptized her name is Vanessa. Well maybe one day we will have sun here again in Rio
Love, Elder Turner

Hello, My week went well in the beautiful city of Niteroi. I was able to baptize a man named Marcos and a kid named Jao Gabriel. The city is beautiful, I can see the statue of Jesus Christ from my house, the only problem is the road was completely washed out, so we can't drive up there, bummer... a picture from my bedroom window will have to do. Love and miss you all Elder Turner

Well this week didn't go as well as i would have liked, no baptisms, it is full serving as the Zone Leader, I never have had to talk to the Mission President on the phone so much. Last week we had a mission counsel in which all the Zone Leaders met together at the Presidents house. We had breakfast, talked about the next Zone Conference, about each Zone and their progress and had lunch there too. It was a pretty cool experience, I love you and miss all of you, thanks for all your support
