6.4.12 Last email...probably

Hey guys,

This is probably the last email... crazy.

This week was alright. We got some new investigators that seem really
interested. A couple of our recent converts are surprising me. Juliene
invited 5 of her friends over to her house last monday to meet us. 3
of them went to Seminary with her every day, and 2 have accepted to be
baptized! And yesterday Jacqueline showed up to church with her friend
from school. It is so great to see recent converts helping others come
to know what we know. It shows me that they really have strong
testimonies. I love seeing little miracles like that. I am going to
miss that the most from my mission I think.

Everything is going well. We aren't sure about Jaoa and Pedrina. I
feel like we are losing them. Joao said that he will get baptized...
he just keeps putting it off for the next saturday. It is very
annoying. It is hard to be mad though cause i like him so much. I just
get a little frustrated. I just hope someday he will get baptized.

This coming sunday all congregations in Brazil will watch the
dedication of the Manaus Temple. I am excited for that. It will be an
awesome way to end my mission. I can't wait for the day that a temple
is built here. Someday it will happen.

I know that this is the true church. I know that Jesus Christ lives,
and that through His atonement, and His gospel, we can all be happy.
really happy. I can't think of a better way to have used my last two
years than here in this mission. I love this work and I am going to be
very sad to leave. I am nervous to get back to normal life. I like
being a full time missionary.

Don't worry, I will make this week the best week of my mission. I am
not quite done.

I love you guys so much and THANK YOU for all of the support you gave
me. It means a lot.

Love Isaac
