We were directed by President to spend New Year's Eve at home to avoid the shenanigans of the immense amount of drinking that goes on in the streets. So we got some money together and bought some small “salgados.” Think of this basically as a miniature corn-dog but with chicken inside the bread part. That definitely wasn't the best way to describe them but I tried. And some Coke to drink because we needed it to feel like we were celebrating a little bit.
Most of our investigators are returning from their vacations so it has been a little easier to get into touch with people. We are continuing to work forward towards the baptisms of several people for the next couple of weeks. So the work is going well. It has also really been better meeting with our people in their homes instead of going out in the sun the whole day. It definitely keeps me from turning into a literal tomato.
It did rain once this week for basically the whole day, but then returned back to more sun. We dried very quickly to say the least. It feels like it is getting hotter every day.
That's really about it! Some really great work. I am really feeling an improvement in my Portuguese and I am very happy to be here serving the people of Fortaleza! Love you all.
