Please forgive me if I repeat myself as I have answered some of you and don't remember what I have told ;you. We tried to google hangout with some of you yesterday night but realized that you were still in church. If you don't have google hangouts please add it to your computers and we will find a time that works for us all and we can talk.
Today is P day and we are taking some of the sisters on a little sightseeing tour. The Crossmans are here and they know everywhere and so we are taking two cars. This is our first trip to actually see anything. The air conditioner/heater we got worked great last night and so we had a COOL nights rest. Dad has become a great Portuguese driver and can handle any roundabout. Driving in the US will be easy after this believe me. Our challenge every day is to get people to smile back at us. We celebrate when we do get a smile. The people in the ward here are very friendly and have accepted us well. We are happy here and though we miss you we know that you are all capable and wonderful people and don't really need us for much except love and we still love you all; just from Portugal. We will soon be visiting less active people here to try to get them to come back to church. We are hoping they will feel the spirit they felt when they were baptized and desire to return and serve and be happy. I know going to church doesn't take away problems but it is great to have the Lord there to help you deal with the problems that life brings. I love you all and actually pray for you every day. Thank you Mellonee for all your help with our finances, it takes a great burden from us to have you doing this. Thanks to Mitchell and Caleb for taking care of our cars and our house (only if needed) we couldn't be in better hands. Thanks to Minon for watching over our sweet mother, that's easy for you because you love her so much, but thanks anyway. Thanks to the rest of you for your mighty prayers on our behalf. I feel the Lord with me every day and know it is because of the prayers of my sweet grandchildren, children, mother, and friends. We love you, MOM and DAD
