January 16, 2012
Family!  Sorry it took so long to write (ya mom apologizes for taking so long to blog again!), but I'll be better again, but these last two weeks were good.  The work is unending w/very small signs of progress.   Except for our dates we have marked were not having any more success.  Knock knock knock but nothing...but were still going strong!  So exciting experiences my rain jacket got stolen Sunday in church!  So that was awesome!  I hope it turns up this Sunday but my hopes are slim!  Things with my comp are going really good.  We have worked out all the bumps and now its just work!  So last Sunday I had the opportunity-challenge to translate for a german millionaire from a mix of english/spanish to portugues.  He is trying to get the member to work with him.  It was super confusing because I didn't know anything that was going on.  I told them I don't want anything to do, I will just translate but it was a neat experience.  But really there hasn't been anything new that happened, nothing exciting just alot of no's.  But oh, I started a new study its using "the history of the church in the fullest of times".  This manual is really cool!  It's full of crazy things that happened in the first of the church!  Like one is the very first time Brigham Young met Pres. Joseph Smith.  Young gave the prayer in the meeting and Young started to talk in another language.  Joseph prophesied that Brigham will be Prophet!  Crazy!  But nothing more for this week.  Take Care.  I Love You!  Tchau!  Elder Deakin
