Missionaries, Movies, Moroni, & More

So many things to report on this week. Let's start first with the...

Missionaries

As temple missionaries, we don't get to interact with the young missionaries very much. We do get to see them when they come to the temple. And we do get to see them when we need official work done. 

It is necessary to register with the government of Brazil so they can keep track of you while you're living in their country and the Office Elders know how, when, and where to do it. 

Thanks to Elder White and Elder Nemec, we and Sister Wilson are now Legal.

Movies

This Cinépolis is probably the nicest theater we've been to - anywhere. There are little guys just waiting to take your order any time throughout the movie. You don't miss a thing.

The leather seats recline. No one's head is in the way. It's just like being at home in Emily and Geoff's media room. 

The movie was great, too. Hidden Figures (if you're English speaking) 

Stars Beyond Time (if you're in Brazil)

We just happen to love this mall, as well.

Patio Batel

Moroni

Yesterday we got to see Moroni up close and personal. Our temple engineer took us up, up, up, and up the escadas until we got as far as we could go - and there he was!

We got a bird's eye view of our apartments, the Catholic church behind the temple and the ever popular red bus.

& More

Yep. Someone had a birthday this month. Thanks for all the love and good wishes sent my way. Our little group of missionaries also celebrated all the February birthdays with hamburgers, fruit, and a big delicious chocolate cake.

Once a month we all get together for Family Home Evening. Lesson, Games, and Food - all in Portuguese. One day I am going to know what I've been missing!

 Another example of what you are missing in the way of shopping experiences. This is the Municipal Market of Curitiba.

The weather remains hot and humid, but we haven't had rain for 2 days. Saturday night we turned our clocks back an hour. Does that mean it's now Fall?! 

The time difference is now 4 hours from Utah and 3 hours from Texas.

Wahoo!
