So i am in the office already, but we are going home to make tacos for 
lunch! :D we had a great week. we set some really high goals this week and we 
worked to achieve them. i cannot tell you guys how tired i am. i have never been 
so tired. i am sleeping really well. i fall into bed and it's all over im 
already snoozing. i think its funny how at home i needed a pitch black room, a 
fan, and all my blankets... nowadays i sleep in the city with doors or windows 
open, no fan, and whatever blankets we have at home. sometimes i fall asleep on 
the bus... like city bus haha.
We are making better contacts and we are workind better with the ward. 
everyone is excited about missionary work. that training came at the right time. 
we have some people we are preparing for baptism and we found a really neat lady 
last week who prayed and really wants to go to church.
Last night.. this morning i had a really powerful experience. at 2 oclock 
in the morning the secretary (Elder Ruesch) came in and woke me up to help give 
his companion a blessing. his comp was shaking uncontrollably, had a fever, was 
feeling hot flashes. elder Ruesch has been struggling a lot with portuguese but 
he was determined to give the blessing in portuguese. i explained how to start 
the blessing in portuguese.  I did the annointing and he gave the blessing. it 
was simple, but powerful. He spoke sincerely and when i finished the blessing 
his comp stopped shaking. We felt a sweet peace and everyone went back to bed 
with that sweet spirit in our hearts. The priesthood was restored and now worthy 
priesthood holders are using this power to move forward this work. the church is 
true. 
i love you guys,
-élder Grondel
