Michael: September 9, 2010

Hey fam, a day late, we had training yesterday and monday and tuesday on this new simplified curriculum for missionaries, its good it focuses a lot on the investigators and how we help them more as individuals and not just show up - teach a lesson and ask them to be baptized, but to help them with their problems, get to know them a little, and testify how the gospel can help their lives. Its great! kinda vague what I just said but its cool. I dunno if any of you read church news of if its mentioned anything about missionary or mtc curriculum but thats that... so far after one day its helped the work a lot, weve marked people for baptisms, now just gotta make sure they make it all the way, unlike the 2 ladies we interviewed for baptisms that never happened.

But uh, things are good here, I noticed that the shopping carts at the supermarket we go to have breaks! something the US could work on. it was funny though cause the next day I saw 2 guys going down a mountain of a hill - in a shopping cart. We taught a guy named Helder, silent H. I have to give a talk in church in 2 weeks! Scary. I dont have time but next week Ill talk more about a division we made and this crazy ladies prayer.

Gotta go love you all! Elder Michael
