Brazilian Friends

Our friends from Brazil, Danielle and Alcenir Sousa came to visit us a couple of weeks ago. Danielle we knew most of the time we were in Manaus. She was from Boa Vista and spoke English well enough that she did a lot of the translating for the general authorities who visited in the area. Alcenir was from Manaus, but moved to Boa Vista when they got married. He graduated from law school down there last year and is a counselor in the Mission Presidency in the Manaus mission. President Itinoisi and President Jayme have both worked hard to turn Boa Vista into a Stake. The Sousas came for Sunday dinner and it was fun to hear about all that is happening with our friends in Brazil. Dad said after a night of talking Portuguese his mouth was sore from using new or at least unused muscles. Mom was their tour guide for a tour of the historic sites in St. George. They will stop in Disney World in Florida on their way home.
