Hey all tudo bem? Sounds like you guys have had a great week Elder Wheeler and I were stoked about that article that talked about Dallan that was sick. Well we're in Cacém right now (we had a huge BBQ at the chapel here) and we have to catch a train soon so this will be quick. We already had zone conference it was cool and we had a good week with some awesome lessons. One lesson in particular with our investigator Vanesa she said near the beginning of the lesson "since you guys have started teaching us these things and since I've started reading the Book of Mormon we have felt a big difference in our home" she explained that she feels better and feels more peace and she also said she was talking with her mom (who attends the lessons about half the time) and her mom recognized it too it was cool. Because she just brought it up we didn't say anything. They would be baptized soon if they would just come to church! Oh and there's a lady that we've been teaching who said the Book of Mormon is worth more than all the riches in the world. That was pretty cool; we plan on marking her soon. So anyway things are going good, a few missionaries came in this transfer that I know through other people. A DRUMMER from Lindon that is in a band called shake and Echo who is good friends with the band the highwire act who we played many shows with. So that was sick to talk to him at zone conference and he was at the BBQ today. Also a guy from Elk Ridge (Elder Thaught) I've been to his house a few times that was weird. But yeah this transfer is going really good We stayed in cacém the other day before zone conference and I got to teach with my home boy Elder Nair, and today at the BBQ there was like half of our district so that was cool. I really like Torres Vedras the work is going good and I love the people there we have a lot of fun Elder Wheeler reminds me of a mix of Dallan and Jake it's crazy. I hope you all have a good week, next p-day we're going golfing at a professional course that is about 5 minutes from our house we already went there to do the driving range but now we're playing the real deal, (my first time playing golf is going to be in Portugal how funny is that?) so take it easy every one I've got to go catch a train. -Elder Lindquist
