Heather, I am so sorry that you have bullys, I wish I could be there to help you, Have you already asked him why he does that? A lot of people do foolish things because they are jelous, I think if you show him concern and love he will think twice about doing that. But, I am sure that if worse comes to worse Justin can talk to him.

Well, this conference was awesome, it started off with serious opposition and so my companion and I missed the first session, but we were still able to get a few investigators to watch, I was kind of nervous, but everyone loved it. Then sunday was a little more relaxed, our big family didn´t watch the saturday sessions, so we went over to their house on sunday and reminded them to come to conference, Alex, one of the teenagers, was still sleeping at 11 o´clock, and the sun rises here at like 5:30!!!! So I went over and literally pulled him out of bed, he thanked me later, I am convinced that a mission is the best dad training there is.kkk So, they all came to conference and boy was it a blast, I just sat there and talked with members and our recent converts in between sessions. While our new president of our branch, president Silveirio took them aside to do interviews. In the last session, Daniel, who is about 10, he is the youngest brother of the family of 8 kids. He is a very special kid, right now he is reading in 1 Nephi chapter 8 or 9 and he is understanding it very well. He let his seat half way through the last session to come sit by me, I put my arm around him and we sat there watching conference.

I gave him a piece of paper to write down what he thinks of while he is listening to the speakers. At one point he looked up and me and whispered "When you arrive home with your family it is going to be a joy right." I said, "I don´t know, I am sure it will be, but it is going to be tough without the friends I have here" He said " Yeah, it is hard to have my friends coming and going" When he talks he takes deep breaths and speaks with a little scratchy voice, but something about that kid reminds me of a little boy who dreams about pirate swords and purple dragon wings...Whatching him say these things touched my heart. I told him that as long as he is here in church with his family it is like I am with him because the same Spirit that speaks to me will speak to him. And one day we are going to be in Heaven, and there we can live in the same neighborhood. He gave a big smile, I am so happy that his special soul was placed in a family with strong adults and valiant brothers and sisters that all love God and were looking for His church.

I wish I could describe to you how it really felt, watching General Conference surrounded by my recent converts. At the end of the day, we are all just fighting dreamers, but we have moments in our lives that are like looking into a shard of perfection. To me, these moments are the molecules that make up eternity.

I want to thank my family, my extended family, my leaders, my seminary teachers, my friends, all of my heroes and gaurdians whose sacrafice brought me to these moments, I am eternally grateful for all of your sacrafices, and I promise to consacrate these sacrafices for the people of Brasil!!! This month I will dedicate to Uncle Travis, Aunt Emily and their family, I love you all!!!!
