Famous Elder Hildebrandt

Ok...ill start off with the bad news and then get to the better:
we didnt quite make our goal of new investigators.....we only got half....but weºre keeping on trying...its harder said then done haha, but weºre working hard, and i think here soon weºll get some good investigators. We went by a university the other day and talked to some people. Weºre gonna try to get a conference or presentation going there. Thatd be really cool. The assistants did really well with new investigators... they blew the goal out of the water and got 14! not i have a new thing going that if anyone in my district beats the APs Iºll buy them lunch. Hopefully it inspires them haha.
But we do have some good news, we have an investigator thats gonna be baptised on the 28th of feb! :D hes this brazilian (a roommate of a member) that is a new investigator of last week. hes been reading the book of mormon, and i asked him about it and he said that hes really mad and i asked why and he was like "cuz laman and lemuel are so stupid! they wont listen to anyone!" haha. hes awesome. We taught about the plan of salvation and about how everyone has a mission on earth and he said " well i think Franciels (his roommate) mission was to introduce me to the church and my mission is to bring it back to my family!" So even though we didnt make our goal of 10 investigators, 1 golden one makes up for it :D
Weve also been working with Fabio (i think i mentioned him in my last letter) hes doing really good. improving every day. we were going to go to a family night in the institute and we decided to swing by his house unanounced and see if he wanted to come. We got there and he was really excited to go so we went and he had a good time! So things are going good with him.
Then with Milton...hes still having troubles deciding if he wants to be baptised. he likes church and has a testimony of hte book of mormon, but we found out yesterday that he is having troubles believing Joseph Smith. So we had a good lesson with him, cuz I dont know if you guys even knew this, but i had doubts about Joseph Smith before the mission...but i knew the book of mormon was true...so i forced myself to beleive in him....but it wasnt untill the MTC that i really got a STRONG testimony of JS...instead of a forced one. So i shared that with him and i think it helped.
OH! guess what! this week, i was in the newspaper! Its this news paper called the Metro, and its daily for free in all the Metros here in Lisbon, so its a pretty widespread newspaper and me and few other elders were in it! they did an article on this Aquarium (almost as good as that aquarium we went to befoer my mission....almost :P) here in lisbon...and we were there last PDAY and we got our picture taken looking at otters and it was put in the paper! One other elder called us up and was like have you seen the metro today? and i was like...noo... and he was like...go get one right now! so we went and got one and we were in it! it was awesome!
I dont have any funny expericences this week...at least none that i can remember.....but it was a really good week. I really like this area, i know how to work it really well...so it makes work alot more enjoyable. Today weºre gonna have a fun Pday, its rainy so weºre gonna have a rainy day pday, play board games, watch best 2 years, etc with a bunch of elders. it should be fun.
And thats about it!
Untill next week!
