Monte Sossego week 15

This morning we went hiking over to the other side of São Vicente and got some great views. We walked through a secluded town called Salamansa and hitched a ride back to Mindelo. With Carnival being tomorrow this week was slow. Nobody was home, but on Saturday we fasted and 6 people showed up to church. A couple named Sidnei and Jennifer showed up and we were about to give up on them. Bernardo went and he is definitely getting baptised this month. He has been great but not getting a lot of sleep because he has been making costumes for Canival. Vagner and Vanelson showed up to church and they are excited for baptism which I think for them will be the 16th of this month. THis week we were able to bring Suéli and Ruth to the Family History Center in the city and we sent four names to the temple. It really was not that hard. Our President now wants us to send a name to the temple for every baptism we get this year. I did another great division with Elder Edu this week and we had a blast. He is a crazy guy but I love him. He is from Nigeria. Thankfully tomorrow we are going to be in Praia for Mission Council so we will miss Carnival. We had some nice family nights and a lunch with some members which helped us get through this week because when I say there was nobody in our area that is just about true. Everyone left to see the parades of Carnival. I hope you all have a great week.
