Caucaia Week 16

Hey guys! Wow, what a great week it was. Seriously, one of the best.

Last P-day was awesome because Luan came out here to Caucaia and we had lunch together and spent the good part of the day with him. It was the 1 year anniversary of his baptism and we had a great time remembering it. He is so awesome and so ready to go on his mission!

We had some great visits that night and the rest of the week just got better.

On Wednesday we had Zone Conference which was AWESOME! It was so good to see so many of my friends throughout the mission that I hadn´t seen in so long, including Elder Zwick, who is doing really well. It was
fun to be with the rest of missionaries in my group who are ending the missions as well. We all bore our last testimonies and it was a great time to be there all together. I have been so blessed to have so many awesome people that have served with me throughout my time here.

The rest of the week was normal and we had some great success on Saturday finding many more people to teach. It was great! We were able to do a ton of contacts and found some good people that we are excited about. Sunday was also good at church and then in the afternoon and night we had a ton of success teaching with a recent convert in our ward, Felipe.

We have been teaching a 12 year-old boy named Lucas who is the son of a member. We are planning to baptize him this week! It has been awesome teaching him and helping his father return to church. We are pumped about his baptism and about the progress of his family! Miracle after miracle.

I am pumped for another great week on the mission. We are having a lot of fun working hard and preaching the Gospel. Dang, missionary work is fun!

Thank you all for everything and I hope you all have a great week.

Until next week.

Love,
Elder Helvey
