Querida Familia

My area is a really crappy place to live. Everybody likes alchohol, drugs, and shooting eachother. We were teaching an 18 year and we had marked his baptism for May 1, but Thursday night someone drove by the front of his house and shot and killed him. The same night the nephew of another investigator was shot and killed. This week was the "holy week" and to commemorate, everyone drank wine instead of cachaça. There were lots of drunk people in the streets.

Saturday night I gave three blessings, one to the mom of our investigator that died, one to a sick member, and one to a man that got hit by a speeding motorcycle.

Also I lost my wallet, the button on my back pocket broke and I think it fell in the street or something. I´ll never see it again,and I will need you guys to cancel my credit card at UCCU.

I got a letter from Rayssa this week that was really good. Even with the crappy things that happened this week, it is worth to be on a mission if you can help one person find the truth. She also sent her Facebook, it should be easy for you guys to find, rayssa.sud.brasil@gmail.com, just write, "sou familia de Elder Jay."

tchau,
Elder Jay Brazil

Hristos a inviat!

Hristos a inviat! is the traditional greeting for the 40 days following Easter.  It means 'Christ has resurrected,' and anytime you say it to somebody they respond "Adevarat a inviat," which literally means "true, he resurrected," but is more like "Yeah he did!"  It's pretty cool.

We went to the Catholic church and to the biggest Orthodox church Saturday night, they are really close to each other.  It was pretty much the same at both of them, with priests singing, and everyone brought a candle and we passed the flame along by lighting other people's candles.  I don't think that it's one of the 'unrighteous traditions' that we are here to tear down.  It was actually really nice to be together with a lot of Romanians celebrating Christ's victory.  People were really nice to us yesterday too.  Easter put everyone in a good mood (even though everyone was super tired from staying up really late to go to church).

I got sick again this week.  I realized that it's like the fourth time in the past two transfers that I've gotten sick.  Like Tom, I have to do almost everything because my companion doesn't speak very well.  I have had to manage every contact, teach nearly every principle in every lesson, make, or listen carefully to, every phonecall to translate or clarify, make sure that everything is recorded accurately in the Area Book in case my companion understood something incorrectly, and take care of the city needs like going to the Primaria and putting things in the newspaper.  I'm really tired.

But, at least things have been going well.  We found a new investigator who is really cool, she is really outgoing and happy.  She's almost exactly like one of the recent-converts that I worked with when I was in Bucharest.  She has a big family too.  While we were out in her area we saw a man with a herd of goats and talked to him a little bit.  We gave him a pamphlet and invited him to come to church.

When we were headed to our church Saturday evening we saw one of the boys that's usually there and he begged us to give him a Book of Mormon.  I didn't want to give him one because I have already given him other things and he just loses or destroys them, so we just talked to him for a little while.  There was a little girl there too and she talked to us too.  I was surprised when she gave us some of the classic responses that every Romanian gives us, because she was only like ten years old.  She said "Isus (Jesus) should be spelled Iisus otherwise it means 'donkey' in Greek," and she said "You never should have left your first religion."  And I said, "Little girl, I never was orthodox.  And I'm from America where we spell Isus with a j."  It seemed incomprehendable to her.  She had an automatic response programmed into her and she was still really little.  I guess that's why everybody else gives us the same responses, they must have been programmed when they were little too.  They probably teach them that in school.  The little boy wasn't brainwashed though, he was catholic.

I appreciate the other churches for the way that they make it more acceptable in general to go to different churches or to change your religion.  They came in to prepare the way for us.  The elders told us that the branch president compared it to school in a lesson yesterday.  Other churches are a little better than nothing so they're like going from elementary school to Junior High, or High School, but what you really want to get to is College, and that's what our church is.

We found even more investigators for the elders, too.  It's always nice when you invite someone to come to church and they do.

It should be fun contacting people using "Hristos a inviat."

Love,
Sora Jay

Querida Familia,
 
Training a new missionary a little difficult. I went from Junior to having to do everything, but I am learning a lot. This week I found a lady that prayed and asked god for knowledge about revelation and the same day we arrived at her door. So far on the mission everyone that prayed before we arrived in their house has led to a baptism, so it is looking good. Yesterday she and four of her sons come to an Easter Firside with us and they liked it a lot. Her oldest son is 23 and said that he didn´t want it to end. Só batiza!
 
Now something that will make Ed and Ariel very jealous. I talked with Elder Siqueira Saturdy and he said that they have 20 baptisms marked for the 24th and they still have a week to talk with the people that went to the dedication of the chapel. It would have been cool if I had stayed there for the new chapel. I would have sent you a picture of me with 20 people dressed in white ready to be baptized.
 
Today we had a Zone P-day and we did some practices. One practice was a bus contact, and one was teaching Dan Jones style. Afterward we played soccer, we had four teams of four and the games ended when one team made two goals. In the first game I made my teams two goals, and in the second game I made one, but after that I started to suck again. When I go home I will able to waste you guys in soccer including you Pete.
 
Gotta go,
 
Elder Jay do Brasil

Romania 18 April 2011

Hello everybody,

Sounds like Tim's wedding went well.  I liked all of the pictures that everyone sent.  There was one with chocolate eclairs... they exist here, but they're not the same.  I'll have to get some when I get back, maybe Jesh will be getting married by then.

I remembered some things that I forgot to tell you about.  I got permission from the city to do 'street-boarding' again and we got more persecution this time, but nothing bad happened.  This priest walked by and said something like "How dare you do this near the orthodox churches, it's propaganda!"  But, there isn't any place in iasi that isn't next to an orthodox church, so we can't help it.  Another lady stopped to say "Have you no shame?  You should be ashamed for saying such things!" and as she walked away I was like, "I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ..."
This is the only city where I have met people who are actually convinced that the orthodox religion is true, most of them just keep it as a religion.  There was another girl that stopped and shouted at the elders for a while but they defended themselves boldly and I think they convinced her to take a pamphlet in the end, maybe not, I don't remember.

We talked to a man in the park yesterday and offered him a copy of the Book of Mormon and he said he already had one and that he had read it and it was a bunch of lies and that orthodoxism was the true religion, because they have been around for 2000 years while we have only been around for 200.  I told him that he obviously didn't read it.  He looked a little embarrassed, so it must have been true.  As we kept talking he told us that miracles should be following the true religion; things like healings, prophecies, and knowing people's thoughts.  (And I thought, I just called you out super hard for lying to me, that's sort of like reading your thoughts, plus we have tons of miracles anyway).  Then I asked him why he didn't become a saint, and he pondered profoundly on the idea.  He said he would tell people that I asked him that and that he would say it in a really blunt way: "Why are you not a saint!"

We met an old history teacher on the street and met with him.  He wasn't willing to believe anything we said and said that the orthodox church is the true one.  Later on he told us that he was born into an Adventist family, but that when he got a little older "the security" which is the secret police, I guess, asked him what he was doing going to that church and that from that point on he never went to the adventist church again.  A few years later when he was in college in a different city "the security" contacted him again and asked him about the adventist church.  He had never going again so he was safe.  It was a super creepy story, and it was the first one I've ever heard about "the security."  I heard another one this week though; one of the members told us that her grandpa got in trouble with them because he "wasn't stealing like he was supposed to," she said, and that he has had a really difficult life compared to his siblings.  She says that it is because "the security" messed things up for him.  That's what she says.  That may be one of the reasons why this city is more difficult than others, they created a tradition of fear.  But we still find people to talk to, our English class has been really successful this transfer.  Three students came to church yesterday, and there are two more that the elders are working with.  Some of them are from our class, but they are all guys, so we didn't get any investigators from it.  The elders got them all.

This one time we were talking to a JW and she started saying all these horrible things about orthodox members and I didn't like it.  I like the people here, even if they do like to slam doors in my face and yell and swear at me.

Love,
Sora Jay

I like 2 Chron 7:14, where the Lord says he will heal the actual land, if the people will just repent.  I think that's what all countries need.

Transferred again

Hey Everebody,

I stayed in Costa e Silva for 5 days and was transferred again, because someone tried to rob us and we beat him up. Just Kidding! Eight more american missionaries got there visas and now I am training an american and reopening an area at the same time. It is a little difficult because Elder Woolley doesn't talk, I speak more or less, and we have to start everything almost from scratch in our area. Our area was part of the Zone Leader´s area, but they never worked on this side and only had one investigator. Oh yeah, my new area is called Mandacaru, and when I learned that I was going there everyone started to say that it is one of the worst slums in João Pessoa, but it doesn´t look that bad to me, and all of the drunks and gangsters like the missionaries. Saturday night I entered a dark street and saw a guy sitting on the ground and started to talk with him and then one by one four other guys came so I taught them all and said a prayer with them. None of them came to church, but I think I will visit them again.

I have been doing lots and lots of contacts and I have made my trainee do a couple. I have only been senior a couple of days, but I already feel like am three times better as a missionary, just because I have to be. I have been a lot more bold talking with people, becuase the way I figure they probably won't accept us anyway so I might as well show them what I am there to do. We were able to bring 4 people to church on Sunday, Alisson, Jeane, and gabrielle, (a couple and their daughter) and a man named Pedro who is also married and has kids.

Saturday night they had the dedication of the chapel in Guarabira. I didn't get to go, but I heard that it was really good. They had more than 300 people at the dedication Saturday night, and I talked to Elder Siqueira on the phone Saturday night and he said they had already marked 8 baptisms, and today Sister Hall told me that they brought 18 investigators to Church on Sunday.

I dared one of the Zone Leaders to do a contact at the front of the bus a couple of days ago and he did it, so now I have to do it as well, but I will talk about baptism in my contact. They have a thing here called fire contacts, where you invite the person to be baptized the first time you talk with them. All of the missionaries have a laminated picure of the baptism of Christ on the front and a confirmation on the back.

Gotta go, love,

Elder Jay

Oh and congratulations Tim and Elisa!

Romania 11 April 2011

Hello everybody,

Well, I have lots of time to write today.  I'm glad everything went well at Tim's wedding.
That picture Mom sent with a bunch of the grandkids is cool, I think I'll print it off and stick it in my little album.

Everything is going pretty normal here.  Everybody here keeps telling me that the Orthodox Easter and the Catholic Easter will be on the same day, the 24th.  We have permission to go to midnight 'slujba' and stay out 'til 1:30am.

There were a lot of people at church last Sunday.  I had to play the hymns again, so I got to sit up front and look at how full the chapel was.  Most of the members here are pretty pessimistic about growth, one of them told me that she has been a member for more than ten years and there have only ever been about 15 'regulars' at a time, but there's more than that right now.  There are at least two members here who have been baptized without telling their families and it's super lame.  They are really hard to work with because they live in constant fear of their families finding out they are members.  There is one member though whose brother just recently got baptized and he is really optimistic.  He said that in two years the branch in Iasi will be the biggest branch in Romania.  That's what we need all of the members to be like.
I was reading in 'Our Heritage' and there is a part where they talk about having all of the members in the world in one small building, but knowing that it would someday be a thousand times bigger.  It's probably more like a million times bigger now.  Maybe I will translate that part and share it with some of the members.

Radu Stoica, who left to the Preston MTC said in his letter to his family that there is only one district in that MTC and that there are only 12 missionaries in the district.  I was really surprised.  It's kind of sad that it's such a small MTC, because one of the cool things about being in the MTC was that there were so many of us missionaries and you could always find someone different to talk to.

It hailed yesterday when we were walking to some blocs to knock them.  I've never seen it do that here before.  It was weird soft hail though, not like in Utah where it hurts to be hit by it.

There is a girl, Dana, that we met with this week who Sora Puckett and I talked to probably our first week together here in Iasi.  She set up with us once back then, but then cancelled and didn't answer her phone after that.  We tried her again last week and she answered and set up with us.  She said that the reason why she hadn't been answering was because she was in a mental hospital.  When we met with her she told us she had tried to kill herself.  It was kind of intense.  We told her not to and taught her about the Plan of Salvation.  She said she had no reason to live and we said maybe she could help other people with her life.  She seemed to think that was lame and said, "So I should live my life for other people?" and we said "That's what The Savior did, and he told us to follow his example," and she got that look on her face like a little lightbulb just turned on.  It was cool to see her perspective change.  Hopefully she will keep meeting with us and come to church.

I was reading in the bible and I noticed the word "purposed" used as a past tense verb.  Everybody always reads it as 'proposed' but I looked in some dictionaries and it's not the same.  When I asked my English class if they had any questions about English and they said "No," I told them "Even I have questions about English!" and explained to them a little bit.  They thought it was pretty funny.

I would also like to know when mothers' day is.

Love,
Sora Jay

Querida familia,

My new area covers two wards, Costa e Silva, e Colinas do Sul so we will have to go to church twice every Sunday. The church is a lot stronger here than it is in Guarabira, but that is one reason that I liked Guarabira. They have a program here called Orkut that is almost the same thing as Facebook and I was going to ask the youth here to add the people in Guarabira, but one of my Recent-converts, Rayssa, already started adding people here when she found out where I was going. Oh yeah, I wanted to ask you guys to pray for some of my recent-converts. First, João e Vitoria, they are having problems with there marraige. Second, Rayssa because the pastors and people from her old church don´t leaver her alone. Third Iara and Jorge. Ogriagado.

Conference was really good, but I started to miss Utah a little bit when I saw the snow before the morning session. I was able to understand everything in Portuguese, but it is better when you can hear the voices of the apostles. I especially liked the talk of Elder Holland. Im out time. tchau

Romania, 4 April 2011

Hello Everybody,

Sounds like things are going well.  I got an invitation to Tim's wedding yesterday from the elders, who waited a few days to give it to me.
I hope that I will at least be able to go to Jesh's wedding, since I've missed both Jill's and Tim's :)

This week I got sick, and I have stayed sick for a while because I didn't take time to rest to get better when I first got sick.  What began as a cold moved down to my throat and lungs.  It's not that bad though.  I didn't realize how much my brain doesn't work when I'm sick until I was teaching English class on Saturday.  Usually I can think quickly and figure things out, but my Romanian was horrible and I couldn't translate things very well.  It was really obvious that I was sick.  Unfortunately I still have to fulfill all of the missionary responsibilities that I had before I got sick (which I think may have been what made me get sick in the first place).

Last week two little boys came into the church and were messing around on the synthesizer and trying to get into stuff.  I told them to leave and Sora Puckett put on a movie for them to watch.  I told them to leave again because President Pitulan said that they would steal things and then they started trying to run away from me so that I wouldn't throw them out.  Well, we were in the church and they were messing around so I figured that the faster I chased them down and threw them out the better it was, so instead of making meager efforts to chase them toward the door I jumped across the room, rebounded off one of the walls, and grabbed one of the kids by the arm.  His friend bolted for the door and I dragged him over and threw him out.  Nice and quick.  I didn't make them mad or anything though, they thought it was funny.  This week we saw them on the street again and the kid that I had thrown out said "Ei, Matrix!" because I guess he thought it was cool the way that I jumped over chairs and rebounded off the wall to catch him.  I think he called my companion Chubby, but I didn't tell her that.  They were wearing roller blades and they asked me to pull them along the street, so I did.

This week our hot water stopped working so we called the proprietar (this is an English word).  Sora Puckett made the call and the first thing she said was "Avem o problema cu nashtere," which means, "We have a problem with birth."  She said it really clearly too.  She wanted to say the word for button, "nasture," but nobody uses that word anyway, they just say 'buton.'  Anyway, when we explained to him about the water he came over to fix it.  He asked me what my companion meant and I just laughed really hard, he said that he was kind of freaked out when she said that.  He didn't want to have to deal with that type of thing.  Anyway, we all just laughed a lot.  Sora Puckett has said the most crazy things of all my companions.  This one might not be funny to you guys, but, during one of our English classes she was explaining about how conjugation works in English and she used an example of a Romanian word, to sleep, a dormi.  The way the word conjugates is just by dropping the i.  But she said I "dormesc" which made everyone laugh, and then she said (conjugating it wrong in a different way) you "dormez."  The whole class was laughing super hard.  I tried not to, because I felt bad for her, and I corrected her, but it was super funny.

The rest of the week was me being sick and irritable and exhausted.  Plus, we had a lesson with a JW after church on Sunday (I'm not the one who set it up, my companion is, I wouldn't have; I was sick so she did whatever she wanted).  We taught her about the spirit world and then she started telling us all her JW opinions.  She started talking about how we should all be in the Garden of Eden and be immortal, but because of Satan we aren't.  I asked her, "So did Satan trick God?" and she said "Yes," and I said "Your god sucks."  Or at least that's what I wanted to say.  I'm glad we have the truth.

I got to see a little bit of Conference Sunday night.  We went over to a member's house and watched it on her laptop.  Half of those talks were about taking care of poor people.  I wonder how that will effect the members here.  There are tons of poor people and we don't have the resources.  Plus, people will just try to take advantage of the system to get food from the church so they can spend their money on drugs and alcohol.  Some of the members already do.  I had a member ask me just yesterday for some money, and I told her to talk to the branch president about it.  I wish there was a good way to help people here.
We saw the first couple minutes of the special report on Japan too and translated it for the member.  Those were the first pictures I have seen of Japan so far.  It's just like you guys described.

I got permission to register for classes today, so I have been looking at all my stuff.  It's nice to see so many "complete" signs next to all of my requirements.  I bet Jerm's has a ton of "incomplete" signs all over.  It's kind of scary to look at some of the classes I will be in, because I have forgotten all my stuff.  I printed off one of my old stats assignments and gave it to my Zone Leader because he wanted to see it, and I couldn't even remember what most of the stuff on there means.  I'm sure it will come back though.

Talk to you later.

Love,
Sora Jay
