Dear Family,

I dont have alot of time to write today because were going to the center of Sao Luis today to look around and we need to leave but I will write a few things and next week I will write more I promise. So we didnt have a baptism this week but some good things happened we found alot of new investigators and my interview with President was really good he helped me alot. We also did a split with the assistants on Tuesday and I was with Elder Cook my companion from the mtc and it was really cool to be with him too. On Tuesday night the stake here had an activity at the church for a celebration that they have here in Sao Luis call festival of the Boi which is bull. They had each ward do some kind of dance and what had all kinds of things there. We ended up setting up a little table with things from the church and got alot of references from that. The world cup is over for Brazil and everybody took it pretty well. Alot of people were sad and now everyone just grumbles about it but not much that they can do until 2014 when its here in Brazil and hopefully win. I didnt get my photos and card yet so I dont know if its arrived but I will let you know when it gets here. We have transfers next week so I might be leaving. It is crazy how fast the time is flying by. Sorry to keep this short but until next week. I love you all very much.

Elder Crittenden
