February 1'st

Hey yall! So this week was pretty awesome. I had some awesome dreams not gonna lie! I had a dream that I was companions with Michael Jordon and he gave me a bunch of air jordon clothes! Also had a dream that I was duck hunting and it blew my mind because I was amazing!! 

So not too much exciting happened this week. We just ate some good brazilian BBQ and it was wonderful. Watched a car accident as we were leaving and I am pretty sure that somebody died... So thats too bad.

We marked three baptismal dates this week and they are all super strong so that is awesome! I am super tired always but that is a good thing because we are working our butts off. Its been like 90 or 95 degrees down here with 100% humidity.... I am so sweaty haha. I feel like I am in a steam room all the time.

We have been playing a lot of rock soccer! You gotta kick a rock between your companions legs... I win every day and the other elders are not liking that because I am american hahah USA USA USA!!

Taught a guy who is antiamercan and he did not like that I was american haha He kept asking me why my country kills everyone who is a threat.... I was pretty chill until he told me it was stupid that we killed Sadam Husan because he was inocent.... Then I lost it. I love my country. I love my freedom. And I MISS MISS MISS My guns. 

Love me. elder Wright

 

 

Greeny

Hey yall! So this week we knocked a lot of doors. A lot of doors..... A lot of doors. We had a serivce project and we had to do demolition on the foundation of a brick house. I cut my fingers very many times and I was covered in blood and it looked like I had been a victim of a drive by shooting haha. Turned out it was like super deep paper cuts on the fingers haha. 

We had this really weird guy invite us in and say that he had been waiting for the mormons to come to his door. He told us that he was excited because he knew that the Catholics and the Mormons are basically the same hahaha. When we got into his house his wife was sitting on the coach. she had one of the most nasty looking legs I have seen in my life!! EWWWWWW!! She was bit by a brown spider three weeks ago and her leg is really swollen and black, and had a huge open hole that was basically eating itself... She said she went to the doctors but they just told her to deal with it.. So we offered a blessing and she started crying after the blessing and said she couldnt feel the pain anymore. We went back the next day and her leg was normal with a little scar where the hole was.. Priesthood is real peeps.

We are teaching this one family that is really awesome! The kids are already baptized and the mom is going to get married in a couple weeks and get baptized too! Her husband likes the missionaries a lot but he doesnt really pay attention to the lessons. So I started joking with him and we started making challenges of magic tricks.... I kicked his but and now he is listening more to the lessons haha! He demonstarted how to stack 16 nails on top of the other and then told me to do it.. I did it and showed him up.. Then I challenged him to do the Randy Wright Knife trick in the hand.. the one were you start with the knife under your thumbs and then twist your hands and it comes out on the bottom.... Yup He still hasnt gotten it and it has been 4 days hahahaha!! (Soooo thanks dad for the wonderful teachings you taught me as a kid) 

Well that was my week... Oh and in our house we have an Elder called Elder Salazar and He is from another land that speaks spanish and I give him a lot of crap and call him greeny and I make him count how many more months he has in the mission every 10 minutes hahahahaa I am such a jerk!

Love me.

Transfered!!

Hello my dealy beloved freaks.

So it finally happened! I got transfered! Now I am in Bordo do Camp São Jose dos Pinhais. I am really excited to change areas! I was so tired of knocking the same doors in my last area. I already miss my companion and the ward. I made some good friends the six months that I was there. 

My new companion is Elder C. Santos. He has 1 year and 9 months in the mission. I have yet to have a companion younger than me haha! I dont think he likes that I am the senior comp but oh well! He is super trunky and I have only two hours with him and all he talks about is home!! Gonna have to change that!!!

So My last week in São Marcos was pretty freaking sucky. Our investigator Patricia smoked... Our other investigator was really bad on crack and his wife went and found him... She is pregnant and round house kicked his car and then took a giant rock and smashed the windows haha.. Dont worry I will send some picks of it hahaha!

Our family we reactivated got drunk and ended up leaving their dads house to live in the road with their three year old son. They told us that they lied when they said they stopped smoking. It was pretty sad to see because we spent two months ever day in their house and it did nothing. They made it a whole day in the sun and then they realized that they had no money and no food and no work so they went back to live with their dad. Then yesterday they made me chicken feet with chicken neck and chicken liver. It was just a chicken fest. 

Well that is me my wonderful little dumplins.

Love Elder Wright

 

 

 

Subway and Baby Birds

Hello freaks!

So this was a nice week here in the jungle! Last P day I got to go to Subway and power my way threw a footlong and I won a poster of chooobacka!!! It was one of the best days of my life.

We wont have any baptizms this transer which is pretty sad. our investigators wont stop smoking, using crack, or get married. We did find a couple that was really good though and they had already studied about the church and were excited to recieve us in their home. The should be  baptized here in a couple weeks but I wil probably be transfered this next week. I will miss this area a lot! I already have 6 months here though. Thats a lot of time!

My companion found a baby bird and tried to rescue it. He braught inside and it got away and pooped on his pillow. That was pretty awesome.

I also took a sweet pick of the jungle like area around our area! I will send it in a another email. 

Well that is Elder Wright! Fat and happy. and "still" drug free!!

Feliz Ano Novo

Christmas and Fatness

Hello all This was a wonderful week full of some good adventures! Got to talk with my wonderfully weird family! 

I have to tell yall about one of the best things that has happened in my mission. So our investigator had an interview to be baptized and we had a member go out with us to do the interview. unfortunatly she didnt pass the interview but she is going good! I was talking with the member though who has been inactive for a while and he told me some pretty sad stuff. He was baptized three years ago. He is married and has a little boy. They are living with his wifes dad who was also inactive and another son who we are preparing to send on a mission. So there are 5 people in their house and only one person is working. He told me that they didnt eat the day before because they just didnt have anything. this was on the 22nd of december. I told the Elder I was with about what he said and we both felt sick eating lunch like pigs thinking about that family. So we put some money together... (Pa and Grandmas christmas money) and we went to the grocery store and spent the money on food, toys, soap, cleaning supplies, tooth brushes and just about everything you could think of! It was the happiest I have ever been while shopping! We got to their house with like 60 sacks of stuff and their faces were in shock. They started crying and asking who gave it to them we just told them it was papai noel #Santa! They still dont know who It was. (Sneaky little Zachy hehe) Now the three of them that were smoking have stopped smoking and they are practicing to share their testimony for this week! I am super happy with this Christmas. It was truly wonderful.

Love yall send ya some pics of me and the comp after the party!!
