Happy New Years!

Happy 2015, everyone!  While the holidays were great, São Paulo gets a little deserted during this part of the year and the only people left on the streets are the drunks, haha.  The whole mission is excited for things to get a little bit back to normal, haha.

We contacted an address that we had picked up earlier this week in an apartment complex.  We got buzzed in just fine but when we got to the apartment we found out it was the wrong guy!  I guess there was some sort of confusion with addresses, but this new guy, Osmar, was super cool and we were able to teach him about the Restoration.  He was super interested and it was a great lesson, but his work schedule is pretty crazy so it´ll be a longer road with him.

We´re trying hard to work with the members of the ward down here, particularly the Priests.  We´re starting to do a lot of exchanges with them so they can get a feel of missionary work.  I wish I had done things like that before my mission.

As a mission we have permission to watch the Disney movie Malificent today.  I´m super excited!  I bought a copy from a vendor on the street for a buck today!  It´s probably totally illegal, but I love Brazil!

That´s about it for this week!  New Years is a great time to look towards the future and think about how we can move forward in our lives with the Savior.  The Church made a great video about this which I´ve included at the bottom.  It´s based off a much larger Elder Holland BYU devotional, which everyone should read if they have the time.
