Today was a very busy day for the Curitiba Mission. Aside from the whole city stopping for the Brazil vs. Netherlands World Cup game, we were very busy. The mission was very happy to welcome Elder and Sister Carter to Curitiba after an exhausting trip here from the United States. They look great and are ready to dive into the work. After getting them settled in it was off to the New Missionary Training at the Mission Office. What a pleasure to meet all of the new missionaries who arrived 30 days ago and their trainers. It was especially great to participate with them as they practiced baptismal invitations. The American elders and sisters are really moving forward with their Portuguese and they are all making huge strides in improving their use of the Spirit.
