NEW PRESIDENT

So this last week we got a new president! President Duarte! He is brazilian abut he has live all around the world for work! he lived in the USA(by the way, happy 4th everyone) so he and his family speak english which is pretty cool! So i met President this week at zone confrence and he came in and shook everyones hands and then proceeded to tell everyone all of the "new" rules. theyre actually the same rules just now they are going to be pressured more! which i am all for it! but this mission has some elders who arent so excited!  but im excited to work with this president, hes all about, if you not here to work and be a focused strong missionary he will send you home! and i think that is awesome! And this friday we have our first interviews with President and im excited to get to talk to him and see how i can better myself as a missionary! 

So the work is going really slow right now and its looking like we arent going to baptize this transfer which is okay! But something REALLY FUNNY that happened this week was we were teaching our investigator Fernando and we finished the lesson and he went to the bathroom and i asked his mother who is pretty ancient, about her knitting and what she does with all the stuff she knits and she got super excited and got up and went to get the rest of her stuff to show us! so she left the room and came back in with a ton of knitted stuff and as she entered the room she let out this WET STINKY FART! me and elder França were trying not to start crying laughing while she was showing her knitted stuff off to us hahah! lets just say when we were walking away we were crying laughing!
