IN THE YOREL EMAIL BAG

Here is an excerpt from Elder Yorel4 in Brazil. He's on the downward slope of his mission experience. 2008 will be the best part of his mission. He returns to the USA in August. His report:

This week was incredible. José was baptized!  I was transfered. [The mission president] called me up on Sunday night to tell me he wanted to release me as a district leader. He´s really really happy with what I did in Itapetininga (and I am too), but, he wants me to focus on the new area.... We´re currently in the city of Taboão da Serra; ward - Clementino, stake - Parque Pinheiros. This ward is great. The members love us, and are helping alot...   things are going well. My companion is Elder Hoover. He´s from Missouri, and he´s the first missionary from his branch to go on a mission. He´s pretty cool, and we´re going to have alot of success here.

I didn´t get the box you sent with the digital camera. I´m guessing that the box was stolen. You can´t really send digital cameras through the mail and the other box you sent to Itapetininga didn´t get there before I left, so I´ll end up getting it in a few weeks, but it´s all good. Things are going well.
