Tuesday May 1, 2012

Dear family and friends,

Yesterday was interviews so I will be writing a short email today of 2 cool things that happened.
Carina was baptized on Saturday and was confirmed on Sunday, she asked me to baptize her. It is cool to see how the lord prepares her heart. She said no to baptism that first day we met her, and then called us back and said she wants to be baptized, so we obliged.
Setubal really has turned out to be a place of miracles, since I have gotten here, the lord has prepared Sandro, Rosa, Viviana, Adriano, and Carina and we are working on 2 more this upcoming week for baptism.
José and Olga are supposed to get baptized this saturday coming up, if they will go and get married. They were supposed to go yesterday, but showed up late, so we are going to go with them tomorrow to see if they can still get married since today is a holiday in Portugal. Yesterday they fed us a very interesting sandwinch with Chick Peas, Spicy Sardines, Canned Hot Dog things (worse than SPAM), LOTS of Mayonaise on a little bread roll thing . . .YUM!!, they are so ready for baptism, it is hard to tell them they had to wait since they didn't keep the commandments of god. Viviana is their daughter (a recent convert)
we didn't have a lot of time, so have a good week.
Elder Hope
