October 17, 2011- Kids Day

Hey Everyone!!
This last week went really really well and we are pretty physically spent but ready for this next week!! This last Wednesday was ´Kids´ Day´ in Brasil, like everybody gets work and school off to just play for a day. Everybody asked us if we have Kids´ Day in the states and they were super shocked when we said we didn´t, but honestly, it´s just another day for the people here to be lazy...they are great people but incredibly lazy haha. We had an activity at the church tho and we had a Family of 6 (not members) who went and they really really liked it. We had a bunch of people totally lined up to come to church this Sunday too so my comp and I showed up at church 30 minutes early so we could greet everyone. We walk into church and everybody is already there and we are super confused and checking our watches. So finally we ask somebody what´s going on and they said that it was daylights saving time...not good. It thru off everything for our investigatrs and most of them didn´t even know the time changed so we were only able to bring 2 to church. Rosa, who I told you about last time, and her husband Eduardo were there tho and they really loved it so that was good. They came up to me right before Sacrament meeting and said that one of the speakers didn´t show up and they needed me to give a talk on Exaltation...in Portuguese...fun stuff haha but it went well and I enjoyed getting a few mintues to talk. Everything is going well here tho and things should just keep getting better!!! Love you all and give the kids some loves!!!!!
Love,
Elder Michael J. Neilson
