MISSION FIELD: Week 50

                                                                                   28 April 2014

     Eu acho que vou falar mais de essa idioma, porque eu gosto mais de inglês. mas, espero que todos de vocês são bom e vida esta mudando para melhor, aqui somos bem, nossa área vai ter muito para fazer dentro aquilo essa semana e vamos encontrar mais pessoas para ensinam.

  (I think I'll talk more about this in this language, because I like English.  But ,I hope all of you are good and life is changing for the better and we are here, our area will have much to do within this week and what we will find more people to teach.)

   So that's how we are doing, sounds like things are going pretty well at home.  By the way, I have forgot lots of English and can't remember anything about church, if it's not in this Portuguese language.  I'm really excited to see y'all and talk to you in 2 weeks.  It will be really fun and I have lots of stories to tell you, but that's about it for this week and I hope you all are doing great!!!  Love you all!!!

love

MISSION FIELD: Week 49

                                                                                    21 April 2014

Hi Family, 

   Well this last week has been great, started off with finding a group of people, in my area, that I taught on another island and we started teaching them again, so it's really fun!!  Then, I gave a talk in church about missionary work, so it was good and ya.  I love the new area, it has lots of people to teach and they all want something more in life.  Whelp, they found the right place!!  Whelp, that's my week.  I love you all and be safe.

   Invite someone to listen to the missionaries!!  It's easy!

love,

 Elder Stratton

MISSION FIELD: Week 48 Transfer

                                                                                     14 April 2014

   Well, familia esta semana foi muito boa,

voces sabem que eu posso falar esta idioma?

  (Well, family this week was very good, you guys know that I can speak this language?)

   Well now that you guys can't understand me, it's great!  This week was great!  We had lots of fun and helped lots of people.  I got transferred yesterday and now I'm serving in the area that was right next to my old one.  I'm super happy to be here, but other than that, things are going good and we are building up the branch right now, really good!!

Love, Elder Stratton

MISSION FIELD: Week 47

                                                                                 7 April 2014

  Well, this week was really good with conference and all.  We really learned a lot here and man, it will be fun to follow those words.  We spent most of the week getting people to get ready for conference and wanting to go, but it turned out good!  We are starting the prep for the new mission president.  Starting tomorrow, we are all doing the training over again, so we can be ready for Pres. Mathews.  I'm excited, the change will be good and we will all learn new stuff.  I'm really learning lots here and how if we just open up the door we can learn and receive so much more!!  I'm really thankful for the small miracles that we get everyday, we just need to look for them and we will realize it.  This is my last year and I plan on changing a lot before the end.  Well, this is the life right here and everyone needs a taste of it, so go out and share it!!  Everyone have a great week and I love you all!!

love, Elder Stratton
