Halloween in Portugal
Zach's Branch Celebrates!
Hey momma!!(:
ill definitely have to check out that talk, i love Pres. Uchtdorf haha. and holy crud, i know i say this about every week, but i cant believe how big the boys are getting!! and man, i feel like its been FOREVER since ive seen that backyard haha.
well this week has been pretty uneventful for me and elder Roberts, mostly cuz we spent a ton of time down in a different city called Faro. we had a zone meeting on wednesday, which means we have to go town tuesday and spend the night cuz we live so far away. so at 6:00pm tuesday we took a 3 hour bus ride down to faro, then the next day at 4:30 a 3 hour bus ride back to Beja to arrive at almost 8pm wednesday night. and wednesday elder Roberts stayed in faro with another elder, and i came back with an Elder Andrade from Cape Verde for divisions. then thursday morning at 10:00am andrade and i caught another 3 hour bus ride back to faro to pick up Elder roberts... then finally elder roberts and i caught one last bus ride back to beja at 4:30 again, to get back to beja around 8:00pm thursday night haha... it was just so much fun.....
but then on friday we had our sweet halloween party, and im gonna have Sheila (our branch pres's wife) accept you guys on facebook for me so that you can see all the stuff that she tags me in, cuz i forgot to take pictures at the party haha sorry. its gonna be hard to eventually leave this place. speaking of which, this coming up sunday is transfers, so this is the last pday of this transfer, so next monday im not positive if im staying here or not, so i guess you'll find out next monday!! but im getting pretty anxious cuz im most likely to be leaving this area and i have no idea whats happening!! haha
And earlier this week i had kind of a cool expirience. i dont remember what i was doing at the time, but i just remember getting distracting by something and my mind starting to wander off, then i swear i heard a voice saying "I need you today" and right away i got back to what i should have been doing. and it was just really cool to have a little help like that, cuz i definitley need it haha!(; its just so cool to be able to be in an enviroment where i can truly get just even a glimpse at how much Heavenly Father does for all of us. theres also a little thing i was thinking of today talking about Heavenly Father, it goes like this. "Of all the titles of respect, honor, praise, and worship associated with Diety, He chose to have us call Him Father." tell me that's not the coolest thing you've every heard! haha, I just am so grateful for the apportunity to serve a mission, and gosh dang i love my Heavenly Father so much(:
and dont worry, i love you guys so much too(; haha, but now i gotta run, so ill write you guys again next week!! love you all!!
