We are teaching lots of people

Hello everybody,

We are teaching some people, thay are Debora(24), Arlindo(about40), Jadson(33),and Manoel(about37). Debora is a lady that we taught one time, we talked about how GOD´S church was restored on the earth by a prophet, Joseph Smith and invited her to be baptized on the 19th of november, but sence that day we haven´t been able to talk to her because she wasn´t home.
Arlindo is live with a member(Andrea), they live as husband and wife but they aren´t married. He goes to church and I believe that he wants to get baptized but he´s not married. Arlindo and Andrea are going to get married on the 10th of Dezember so we are going to help him get baptized on the 11th. He´s a cool guy but sometimes he is really shy, we are going to teach him everything again and help him understand because sometimes he has a hard time understanding.
Jadson has a girlfriend(Cristiane) who is a member and he has been going to church for 6 months. We started teaching him 2 weeks ago, we taught about the restoration but we can only teach him on saterday or sunday because he gets home late durring the week. Jadson started reading the Book Of Mormon yesterday and he hasen´t prayed to ask if it is ture yet, but I am sure that when he asks he´ll get a response. Cristiane is also helping him so it should be easyer for him.
Manoel, we taught him the restoration and he´s reading the BoM but he don´t want to got baptized yet, but we´ll work with him.
Just to let you all know I´m doing fine, my health is also good. This week was a prity good one. On thursday we had a meeting with Elder Claudio R. M. Costa(who was or is in the 1st presidency of the 70 and now Area president of Brazil), he is brasilan and very funny he told us a lot of storys and miricals that he has seen in his life, really cool!
I know that the lord loves us and wants us to be happy. Elder Costa said "The perpose to the Criation, The FALL, Atonment, and The Restoration is to make it possiable so that our Familys can be together forever"!
Have a good week.


Elder Stephen Larson
