Having a companionship s weird and way more difficult cause i used to speak a little portuguese in the lessons and let my spanish companion take over the rest but now i speak portuguese for most of the lesson while and try to teach my comp during study time. Im teaching him the language and the gospel which is exciting.
OOH THE DEVOTIONAL LAST WEEK WAS AMAZING! IT WAS ELDER NEIL L ANDERSON. AND I GOT TO SHAKE HIS HAND. I probably wasnt supposed to be able to but i sorta ran into him after the devotional. so its all good. choir is a lot of fun and it is massive. the choir director is Brother Ryan Eggert (eggett?) and he directs the choir by telling funny stories and teaching the gospel to a group of missionaries twice the size of motab.
We have two new sisters in our zone and as zone leader i get to give them an orientation which went about as well as can be expected when i'm giving the tour. they're really nice but there both visa waiters. We also lost another elder this morning to sao paulo. and we expect to lose three more elders or sisters next week.
my comp went to the doctor and has something weird wrong with his chest and it might be muscle deterioration or it might be pneumonia. who knows. i got my malaria pills but the were originally prescriber to robert lorimer who was at the mtc about a year ago which is weird because i have yet to find a lorimer that isn't directly related to me.
My engineering skills are coming in handy because i'm fixing all sorts of stuff. unfortunately i have to tools or resources which make it a bit harder to fix stuff.
we did trc for the first time and it is super fun. taught lts of people all my lessons are going really well im doing great at portuguese.
ALSO JOSH you better put up the christmas light cause they already have them up at the mtc and this is the lords ground so in our efforts to live after the manner of righteousness we need to emulate as much as possible which means putting up christmas lights the day before halloween. Its so cool!
halloween was fun i ate a lot of other peoples candy and dressed up as a certain christmas tie wearing danish missionary
during early morning service this week i discovered that for some reason the women's restrooms have urinals in them. weird.
I have also been on the big screen at devotional something like 6 times now which is pretty good. im gonna do a solo if i can and itll be great.
also i painted my name badge pink.....
love "yall"
Elder Lorimer
