This week was awesome, we started working in a neighboorhood I had never worked in before and we started teaching a guy named Lucas, he´s a friend of a member named Renato.  Renato is aweome he always buys a 2 liter coke when we go and teach lessons. We started teaching his friend Lucas and he accepted to be baptized for this next Sunday he´s super excited. He went to two activities in the church and then on Sunday he came with his friend Renato and liked it alot he already knows alot of people. Were going to visit him again on Tuesday. Also Gostavo one of my best friends in this area told me he wants to get baptized as well! He gone to church 8 times, we just never had the opportunity to teach him because he´s always working, we were able to teach him the first lesson last week and he like it alot because now he wants to get baptized!
