Afonso: He is a kid that is 10 years old. He is really cool. He wants to follow Jesus Christ and be baptized. We are working with him and his mom so that that happens.
American names are hard here: My last name is probably the easiest name to say in English. Consisting of 4 letters it's a small name and easy to say. For Portugal my name is death. Few achieve saying my name the right way within the first 5 attempts. And usually as they continue to correct themselves it worsens. The way they say my name here is very close to a swear word in English. It's really hard not to laugh when people just drop the ''f'' bomb in church and other sacred locations trying to communicate with you. But it's even worse when it's your mission president that's dropping the ''f'' bomb.
The missions are combining: Exciting news is that the missions Portugal Lisbon and Portugal Porto are combining to become the new Lisbon Portugal mission! That's going to be real interesting. President Filmore is going to be the new president of the new Portugal Lisbon Mission.
Transfer Transformations: After Elder Martel has gone to the Açores that means that we got a new member to our squad here in Amadora. His name is Elder Abott. He is also from Canada but is much lower key than Martel was on that issue. We are all working hard helping people come unto Christ is this transfer.
