day 271 JW are the enemy

Hey guys so this week was a fun one we had some fun encounters with the Jehovah's witness's this week and we just said hi and they asked us if we wanted any of their little book thingys and we looked and they had a question on a little board thingy and it said "Where did we come from?" Elder N. Pearce then asked if they had an answere for it and they pull out a little magazine and they give it to us and they ask a question and it all started from there!!! We then went home to eat lunch cuz we had money for lunch and we told the other Elders that were at home what had happened and they thought it was pretty cool so they wanted to do it too and so on friday they went out and it was some other people but it was pretty fun to hear what they have to say even though its wrong. But whatever!! 

Now we got multi-zone and that should be fun but thats most about what i did this week so yea!!

day 264

Hey so this week was a lot of ups and downs...not the mental sense but in the literal sense (pic) (no pic was attached) I miss all the soccer things and stuff and going to the tournaments of the such!  we went to a new reference from the ward and they are super cool from the Bahia and we might mark a date for them  for the next week if they go to church!! This week was alright my comp is pretty cool cuz we just get along really well!! I love the work and all the people but we all move forward!! Love you guys

Questions:
Do you ever feel like a meeting or talk is just for you?
Yea, almost every missionary meeting!!

Getting more familiar with your big city?
Yea kinda but still don't like the big hills.

Any new investigators?
Yea like all of them cuz the old ones are slacking with the church thing.

day 257 I will never use public transportation again!

I hate freaking busses!! I will never ever in my life will i ever again ride busses after the mission!! Why? you ask cuz this week i spent more time on flippin busses then i did in the houses of my investigators. Why did you spend lots of time on busses Elder Smith you ask?? Ohh well cuz im the companion of the District Leader and we had to go do baptismal interviews everyday of the week!! Thats a bad thing?? You ask. No its not but it just sucks cuz all the Baptisms that we were supposed to have they all fell and didnt get baptised!!!  And the worst thing of all is that i spent all my money on the busses so now i dont have any money left for this week!! But other then that we had a pretty chill week so thats okay. Still here with Elder N. Pearce and we have a new american with us in the house his name is Elder Murray and the funny thing is is that he was companions to Elder N. Pearce in the MTC in Provo haha and now hes Zone Leader. 
Well thats about all this week so Peace out!!

So this week is Transfer week and i didnt get transfered woohhooo i get to stay in Botucatu with Elder N. Pearce. I was kinda hopeing that i would go up to be DL but the lord has other plans for me and i know that. But im glad that i could stay with N.
