Happy Birthday Trevor! Do the Best That You Can!

Bom dia!

Thank you all for all the birthday wishes! Man I´m getting old! I´m almost 20! I guess my teen years are over. 

We had a meeting with President Genaro on Wednesday in Londrina. It was super freakin awesome! The missionaries that are serving in my last area gave me a package. It was from Tiago and his family! They sent me a package for my b-day! Thank you sooooo much! It was super awesome and totally made my day. I was super glad to hear that his family is doing well. The missionaries are still teaching Vitoria, so please pray for her and her family. 

I was sick this entire week! I´m finally started to get better in the last couple of days. I woke up the morning of the meeting with President and I had last my voice almost completely. Man it was terrible. I went to the doctor´s on Thursday and they gave me some medicine and stuff that helped a lot. 

The Lord Hears and Answers Prayers.... A Night of Miracles!

Bom dia!

I´m sick! I´ve got a cold or something, which is crazy cuz the weather´s like in the  60s and 70s here. Pretty much everyone in our zone is getting sick. I think that more that half of the missionaries in the city have already caught it. It´s not too bad, just a sore throat in the morning and night. But other than that, I´m doing great! Transfers are today! I´m staying here in Apucarana for one more transfer! I was already expecting that but I'm happy with the transfer. 

This week was pretty good. It had its ups and downs. We found a few new investigators this week that we´re excited to start teaching a bit more. We had some really great people to bring to church on Sunday. João and Maria were coming as well as a Mom and here kids, but the both canceled on us on Saturday night, so that was a bit of a bummer. Maria had to work and João didn´t want to come without his wife,and the family went to visit their relatives. We have good investigators, but our biggest problem lately is getting them to church. Pray that they´ll come to church next week.

We started exploring some new parts of our area that we haven´t been to yet, and we´ll see if we find some success there.

Loving Every Minute of My Mission!! Grateful For Wonderful Members....

Bom Dia! 

What´s up my peeps! man this week was SO STINKIN COLD! Haha cold being under 60 degrees. Man I'm totally gonna die when I go back to BYU. But it rained a ton and was really windy. I actually had to use a jacket, which I´ve only used a couple times on my mission. 

Search for Spiritual Experiences....

Bom dia com muita alegria!

Hope everyone´s doing well over in the states.

This week went pretty well. We didn´t work too much in our area this week.

ON Wednesday we went on splits with the Elders in a nearby city called Arapongas. Elder Manz is there right now! He was one of my companions like 8 months ago. My comp went with Elder Manz, and I went with Elder Krewer. He´s a super new missionary. He´s like a month in on the mission but he totally loves to work. We were in his area knocking on a few doors when we asked for water from this lady that was sitting outside of her house. She let us in and we started talking to her a bit. She told us that a minute or two before we knocked on her door, she said a prayer asking for someone to come into her life to help her out. WOW! She had just moved here, and she felt alone and confused. We invited her to church and she said yes full heartedly. crazy awesome spiritual experience. There are just tons of small experiences like that on your mission that help your testimony grow a lot stronger. She went to church yesterday and the Elders are teaching her now. We´ll see what happens. 

Pray for Miracles...They Happen!

Bom dia!

Happy Anniversary mom and dad! Thank you guys for being the amazing parents that you are! Hope you guys had a great anniversary.

We had a baptism! Igor was baptized yesterday. He´s a recent convert´s son. Super aweome kid! His mom, was baptized in January. She wasn´t too active but she´s starting to come back to church.We helped Igor to be baptized yesterday! He´s a super funny guy! 

Mothers Have the Most Important Calling in the World

What´s up guys!

Man is was so great talking to you guys yesterday. I just realized yesterday that I´m never going to speak english again the way I used to, haha! jk! We´ll see after the mish. Actually a few weeks ago Tiago looked up the video of my mission call opening, and I heard my voice when I read my call! MAN I spoke so stinking WELL! I don´t know what happened but I was like fluent in English. haha!

I´m in Apucarana! It´s super awesome here! The members are really great and they treat the missionaries really well! My companion is Elder Fagundes. He´s a super cool guy. He´s a super good missionary and has had a lot of success on his mission! We´re really excited to work hard this transfer. 

New Adventures.... A Transfer to Apucarana!

Brother Paixo (Just got his mission call to Sao Paulo North Mission)

Bom dia!

I´m getting transferred! I´m going to Apucarana! It´s a city close to Maringá. I´ve heard it´s full of steep hills and stuff, so I guess I´ll get a pretty good workout! I´m pretty excited to work in my new area but also a bit sad to leave my area. It´s been for sure a great experience here and I´m really gonna miss a lot of people. 

Mother´s Day is next week! I´m stoked to talk to you guys! Haha, it´s kind of hard to believe that it´s gonna  be my 3rd skype on the mission. Time´s going by fast.

Elder Nascimento caught the bus to go to Londrina last night. He should be getting home on Wednesday afternoon. Man he is a really great guy. I´m sure gonna miss him. Lots of laughs.

This week was pretty good. But I´ll be honest. With this week being Elder Nascimento´s last week, we didn´t get as much work done as we wanted. There were a lot of dinner appointments with members and stuff. But it was pretty good! We sure ate a lot! Haha!
